Details

Event Type Talk/Lecture and Exploration Description Noted scientists Drs. Robert and Johanna Titus will present a special talk about the geology of the Clermont State Historic Site, and will explore its journey from the distant past. Immediately following the lecture, Drs. Titus will lead a walk of Clermont’s grounds to point out specific geological formations. Drs. Titus have studied the bedrock and ice age geology of the Hudson Valley for many years. They have written hundreds of newspaper and magazine articles, along with several books about this subject. They are popular speakers and make dozens of presentations every year. They believe that much of the history, art and culture of the Hudson Valley had their origins in the region’s geological history. Organization Hosting the Event Friends of Clermont
