Bogus Basin: Granite, Gold & Wildflowers

A guided geologic field trip to Bogus Basin to learn about local gold distribution and rock formations.

Join us for a geologic field trip to Bogus Basin. Learn about how geology controls the distribution of Gold in the area and see how veins in the granite (pegmatite’s) can tell you a lot about where the gold is (or isn’t). We will meet at Frontier Point/Nordic Lodge 16.3 miles up Bogus Basin Road at 10 am. Sponsored by the Idaho Museum of Mining and Geology, 2455 Old Penitentiary Rd, Boise. Nonmembers of the Museum $20, Members and kids Free.
