Cave of the Mounds Trip
The Beloit Geology Club took a day trip to Blue Mounds, WI to explore the Cave of the Mounds. Club members learned about the geologic history of the Driftless Area and how the cave system below Blue Mounds formed, including the amazing mineral deposits and structures seen within the cave.
Students also learned about the historical significance, and how the land went from farm, to quarry, to a geological landmark.
