Allan James Geography Dept., Univ. South Carolina, Columbia, SC 29208, E-mail: [email protected] Part I: Introduction and Background Field Trip Overview. The primary objectives of the trip are to present new evidence of glaciation in the NW Sierra Nevada (Sierra) region at a variety of scales, to link geomorphic form to glacial processes, and to present an outline of the general late Pleistocene stratigraphy in the region. The trip concentrates on evidence of late Pleistocene glaciations between 1400 and 2250 meters (4600-7400 ft) elevation on the west slopes of the Sierra along the Interstate 80 (I-80) transportation corridor. In the morning Figure 2. Location of trip and study area in NW Sierra we leave from the Reno Hilton and drive Nevada, California. non-stop west on I-80 up the Truckee Figure 1.

We then travel downslope, leave I-80, and work our way obliquely into and up Bear Valley (BV) on dirt and gravel-improved roads (Figure 2). The first two stops in the morning will view local-scale erosion features and a large-scale overview of the lower study area, respectively.

  • The Sierra Sampler
    The Sierra Sampler Listed below, by region, are the 100 peaks that comprise the Sierra Sampler. While no mountain in the Sierra can be climbed without time, effort, and risk, these peaks represent a sub-set of the full SPS List that are relatively easy to get to, pose less danger than others on the List, are fun to climb and/or hold other qualities, and are drawn from the main areas of the range. The Sampler, which has been approved by the SPS Management Committee, thus provides a good introduction to the Sierra for climbers of varying degrees of experience and ability. The only award or acknowledgement associated with the completion of the Sierra Sampler is your satisfaction and enjoyment. Enjoy! 1. SOUTHERN 2. MINERAL KING 3. OLANCHA TO 4.
