About Me

RocDoc: In the 25 years since I got my Ph.D. in Geology, I've taken hundreds of curious travelers on field trips to some of Earth's most fascinating places -- some well-known, others off the beaten path where the really good stuff is. It's about time I shared those trips with every curious traveler! I'll post them regularly here. Enjoy! Contact me at rocdoctravel@gmail.com
