Local News from Marbletown, Rochester, & Rosendale
A drive through the rocks of the Hudson Valley and Catskill
Mountains tells the history of New York long before the dinosaurs.
Marine shells and coral reefs in the valley indicate an environment of
shallow tropical seas. Fossil trees and strata of the Catskills record
a history of some of Earth’s earliest forests and an Andes-scale mountain belt in New England. Time
travel to a very different New York State with Dr. Chuck Ver Straeten of the New York State Museum.
This event is free.
