GSN FALL FIELD TRIP – OCTOBER 1-2, 2022

The 2022 GSN Fall Field Trip will visit the Zaca and Morningstar Mines on Saturday morning then tour the Leviathan Mine Saturday afternoon.  Dinner will be at the Carson Valley Inn with a talk on Spring Peak by Headwater Gold.  After the talk we will drive to the Topaz Lake Lodge to spend the night.

On Sunday we plan to visit the Travertine Hot Spring to view the active geothermal geology and maybe take a morning soak. Then we’ll travel on to Bodie State Park where we’ll have our box lunches and take a tour of the ghost town and nearby workings. After the tour we’ll head back to Reno. See the full itinerary below.
