Program Description

Event Details

Dale Gnidovec, curator of the Orton Geological Museum at Ohio State University, offers a tour of Ice Age Ohio. Pleistocene Ohio was more than mammoths and mastodons. The glaciers had a huge effect on Ohio's landscape, filling valleys and leaving behind hills, ridges and unusual rocks. Dale Gnidovec teaches you how glaciers form, and the changes they caused all over the planet. Meet some of the animals that lived in Ohio during the Ice Age and see how their remains are excavated, dated, and interpreted. Teens and older children are also welcome!
