1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: "Steiner, Arron Richard" <arron@xxxxxxx> Greetings, we would like to draw your attention to an upcoming session and field trip at the GSA Joint Cordillera/Rocky Mountain Section Meeting May 15-17 in Spokane WA. See details below. *T14. Continental Mafic Volcanism: Honoring the Career of Vic Camp* Arron Steiner, Washington State University, arron@xxxxxxx; John Wolff, Washington State University, jawolff@xxxxxxx; Emily Cahoon, Oregon State University, emily.cahoon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx *Description:* Vic Camp has made career-long contributions to understanding Cenozoic mafic volcanism in the inland northwestern US and elsewhere. We encourage contributions on continental mafic magmatism, especially focused on the Columbia River basalts and broader Yellowstone Hotspot province as well as other Large Igneous Provinces and intraplate volcanism. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2024CD/top/papers/index.cgi?sessionid=56099__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bAI6Sr68Ccqo-uZr-lCuxL6pxNXjv8KL1G4jNM5AxwoAk3JHNB-xAHY2D90i0PDMTo_x8XAltONYu-Rt$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gsa.confex.com/gsa/2024CD/top/papers/index.cgi?sessionid=56099__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fAec4rEBijdW5izZkOqy6dDHsged4ZkjYVlAZY_r_mrMqYi7Fd6zASCS3SURowz2Zi0_QL2wGiPL$> *Abstracts deadline:* 6 Feb. 2024, 11:59 p.m. PST *15â??17 May 2024* *Spokane, Washington, USA* Davenport Grand Hotel Field Trip *Stratigraphy, Eruption, and Evolution of the Columbia River Basalt Group. <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.geosociety.org/GSA/Events/Section_Meetings/GSA/Sections/cd/2024mtg/fieldtrips.aspx*ft11__;Iw!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fAec4rEBijdW5izZkOqy6dDHsged4ZkjYVlAZY_r_mrMqYi7Fd6zASCS3SURowz2Zi0_QNDBGGA8$>* Vic Camp, San Diego State University, vcamp@xxxxxxxx; John Wolff, Washington State University, jawolff@xxxxxxx; Arron Steiner, Washington State University, arron@xxxxxxx; Evan Soderberg, Washington State University, evan.soderberg@xxxxxxx; Rachelle Hart, Washington State University, rachelle.hart@xxxxxxx. *Description*: The Columbia River Basalt Group is world famous as the best studied continental flood basalt province on Earth. This two-and-a-half-day field trip to the eastern Columbia Plateau will focus on the basalt flow sequence, dikes, vents, evolution of the basaltic magmas, and their relation to the larger Yellowstone Hotspot Province. The locations to be visited are in and adjacent to the canyon country of southeast Washington, western Idaho, and northeast Oregon, and feature feeder dikes, near-vent associations, and thick plateau basalt lava sequences. The formations to be examined include the Imnaha, Grande Ronde, and Wanapum Basalts. The stops are mostly roadside and involve walking a short distance (no strenuous physical activity). Accommodation is double-occupancy hotel rooms (single rooms available at extra cost). The trip will depart from and return to Spokane. 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ------------------------------
