Title: Geologic Field Trips of the Canadian Rockies: 2017 Meeting of the GSA Rocky Mountain Section

Editor: Jean C.C. Hsieh

This field guide volume includes five trips that explore the structural geology, sedimentology, and paleontology of the region, as well as exploring the relationship of the geology to the regional petroleum and mining industries. The guides describe the geology of a classic E-W transect through the Canadian Rockies, the stratigraphy of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Dinosaur Provincial Park, the unique fossils of the Burgess Shale, the Mesoproterozoic Belt Supergroup of the National Parks on both sides of the border, and the sedimentology of an analog for the prolific petroleum-producing Montney Formation.
