Hi Cathy,

The tundra photos are beautiful!  Will you be able to take a sample back to your class and use in a lab activity?

Hi Jackie,
Thanks for reading and checking out the photo gallery.  It's not hard to take good pictures here, the area is extremely scenic and photogenic!  Indeed I will be able to take soil samples and other samples, including mosses and lichens.  I would love to take a chunk of tundra home (not from anyone's study plot of course) but I fear that it would die without the deep freezing it is accustomed to.  
 I know that you, as a geologist would go crazy up here with all the different soils and glacial areas. 
Take care,
Cathy

Was the expedition a great experience for you?
Did it benefit your knowledge in a positive way?
Was your hypothesis correct?
