Our original POGI map was deprecated a few years back, and we are slowly constructing a new map that updates as many POGIs as we can.
Field Trips: POGIs
Much of the CGS website is under heavy re-construction and will be for some time. The Publications area is working normally, but there is a lot of content from our original site that was in desperate need of updating. Please bear with us as we gather new information and rewrite hundreds of pages of material, gather and properly caption high-resolution images and otherwise bring you some very cool new and archival material never before seen! Stay in touch by subscribing to the >RockTalk< blog where we will announce new items periodically.
We are also compiling a large number of field trip guides, some vintage, some new, from our collection, and will be posting them here shortly.
