Landslides, Faults, and the Geology of Portland’s West Hills

Join environmental educator Roland Begin for a hike around Hoyt Arboretum – and through ‘deep time’ – to learn about the unique geology of Portland’s West Hills. We’ll get to walk beside an earthquake fault – and gain an appreciation of ‘timefulness’ and the ever-changing land beneath our feet. In addition, we’ll learn about SLIDO, the state-supported tool to determine landslide potential anywhere in Oregon.
Tours occur rain or shine. Dress for the weather, wear comfortable shoes for walking on trails, and bring your camera to take photographs.
