Hit the Trails for Fun & Geology with Amy Martin & Mick Tune

Learn where you can go to get your rock on with Amy Martin, author of Wild DFW: Explore the Amazing Nature Around Dallas-Fort Worth (Timber Press). Discover where you can hike a variety of limestone escarpments, walk on 300-million-year-old oyster gravel, and explore a perfect example of a limestone cuesta. She’ll share insider tips for exploring urban nature safely.

Mick Tune, author of Wildering, will regale about his long-distance trips to fossil-rich geologic areas and wilderness hiking adventures. He’ll contribute his advice for hiking remote areas without injury or getting lost. Mick contributed the opening vignette to Wild DFW’s Shores of an Ancient Ocean (geology and paleontology) chapter.
