Day 3 (7/8/03) - Plum Creek and Pulpit Rock, Colorado Springs

Prev | Index For This Date | Next
Bob Raynolds arguing his case for the geology near Pulpit Rock. Eventually, he won the argument with considerable digging by Jim to support his case. Kirk Johnson went downstream to search for evidence supporting his claim but ended up convincing himself of Bob's argument. Thus, the new leaf locality Kirk discovered is now called "Lost Argument". The beauty of science is that you don't live by personal bias. You change your views based on the evidence provided in the rock record - period.
