The Quechee Gorge serves as the outdoor classroom for an investigation into our geologic past. Join VINS Educators to examine the evidence of our changing earth. Uncover the story of how glaciers, rivers, humans, and more have shaped the local landscape and examine rocks to unearth clues that tell an intriguing story. This lesson is limited to a minimum of 10 students and a maximum of 25 students at a time. We recommend an arrival time of 9:00 AM and includes a 90-minute round trip hike down moderately steep and uneven terrain.
