Summer field camp

The Geological “Summer field camp”, one of the courses i teach, takes place at the beginning of the second year of undergraduate geology studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, in the Eilat region. The camp work areas include Timna, Rehava’am valley, and Mount Shahamon. The camp serves as the basic geological field and mapping course at the Hebrew University. During the camp the students learn the art of field geology: to study a given area, describe its geological structure, rock composition, field relations, and prepare a geological map. The students then reconstruct the geological history of the study area based on their field observations. Put simply, in this camp the students learn how to work as geologists in the field.
