Saturday, August 17, 2013 =96 Blomidon Red Sandstone and Beach Rocks. =
Leader: Ron Buckley (542-1815). The red rocks of the Blomidon cliffs =
were deposited as the North American Continent was drifting across the =
equator, and the Atlantic Ocean was opening, to its present location as =
we know it today.  The lower sandstones (older rocks) were deposited in =
tropical conditions in water while the upper portion was deposited by =
wind.  Sea level had lowered during this time causing the earlier rocks =
to erode on exposure to the atmosphere and the loose sand grains then =
blew around as sand dunes in desert conditions. Meet at the Blomidon =
Provincial Park parking lot near the beach at 2 pm where Ron will give a =
background talk before the walk. The group will then walk down the =
steps, tour the beach using a Geological map and return.=20
