Event Message:

From jagged mountains to vast basins to supervolcanoes, Wyoming is a veritable geologic wonderland. Founded in 1943, the Wyoming Geological Association has a long history of promoting the science of geology in the state and is proud to host the meeting in legendary Cheyenne. Cheyenne’s unique location makes for easy travel from Denver yet far enough from the hustle and bustle of the big city to enjoy the quiet. The meeting will be held at the Little America Hotel & Resort, which presents easy access to everything Cheyenne has to offer. While you are in Cheyenne, be sure to take a tour of the capital or head to Terry Bison Ranch to get a burger and feed the bison.

Technical sessions include geophysics, D-J Basin Codell and Niobrara, Powder River Basin Plays, History of Oil in the Rockies, and a special tribute to Bill Cobban. Field Trips will take people to the Wall Creek and other tight sands of the PRB, Niobrara and Codell of the D-J, an impact crater, and on a whirlwind tour of the structural geology of Wyoming. Short courses offered to teach people new skills in unconventional resource evaluations, multivariate statistics, sequence stratigraphy, and selected core examinations. Don’t worry; guests will have the chance to visit Terry Bison Ranch or an ocre mine archaeology site among other fun activities. So, head on over to Cheyenne for the 2019 Rocky Mountain Section of AAPG annual meeting, I promise your experience will be legendary!!
