About the Meeting
We are excited for you to join us at the GSA 2025 Rocky Mountain Section Meeting, to be held in Provo,
Utah.
Provo is nestled in one of the most
geologically diverse settings in America. The meeting will be three kilometers from the Wasatch fault,
which
lies at base of the actively growing
Wasatch Range, and which marks the boundary between the Rocky Mountain and Basin and Range physiographic
provinces. Provo is within an
hour drive of Precambrian tillite and Mississippian limestone, Sevier and Laramide structures, Tertiary
intrusives, volcanics, and ore bodies,
shoreline features from Pleistocene Lake Bonneville, Pleistocene glacial morphology, and many more
geologic
treasures. The meeting will be held
at the Utah Valley Convention Center, which is less than an hour drive from the Salt Lake International
Airport
and is situated among a thriving
restaurant scene in downtown Provo. Provo has been ranked by Outside Magazine as one of the best places
to live
in the U.S.
