Hello, everyone!
I wanted to create a thread that makes some of the print and online resources for Geology in Alaska more accessible in one place for the creating of Earthcaches. This thread can act as a reference library of sorts so that we can all share the journal articles, professional and academic papers, books, and websites we have used or come across that would make an Earthcache easier to create.
Please provide links, authors, ISBN numbers, etc for your resources.
Thank you, and ENJOY! Happy Earthcaching!

Looking for some help on the Kenai Peninsula? Look no further! Ed Berg (E.E.Berg) is a great human resource, and he provided me this link and reference for Kenai peninsula geology. www.dggs.dnr.state.ak.us/pubs/pubs?reqtype=citation&ID=15941Reger, R.D., A.G. Sturmann, E.E. Berg & P.A.C. Burns. 2007. A guide to the late Quaternary history of the northern and western Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. State of Alaska, Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys. 118pages + 6 maps.

Currently, I'm in a Geology class with a lab learning about minerals, igneous rocks and plate tectonics and it makes me appreciate what I see everyday as well as on geocaching adventures. Alaska is an awesome state to live in geologically speaking.

Alaska is an awesome state to live in geologically speaking. If you have any textbook or article references from the course, be sure to post them! Also, see if your professor might be able to be a POC for more information in their area of study! If they specialize in some area of geology, or area of AK, it could be great to learn more from them. Speaking of, Ed Berg is great for the Kenai Peninsula, but also a resource for Alaska in general. He can be reached through the Kenai Peninsula College, as far as I know.
