Geology Lab and Mini-Hike  Catalina Island, like all islands, is a unique environment and ecosystem shaped by a multitude of geologic forces, weather patterns, animal and plant inhabitants and, of course, the ocean that surrounds it. On this hike, students are introduced to geology, plate tectonics and learn about the forces that created the island. The hike culminates with an adventure into a silver mine right in Cherry Cove!
