Geologic Resource Evaluation Scoping Summary: Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
Thornberry-Ehrlich T. 2010. Geologic Resource Evaluation Scoping Summary: Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore
The National Park Service held a GRI scoping meeting for Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on July 23, 2010, at the local Historical Society building in Munising, Michigan. A field trip, including an evening boat trip along the lakeshore, followed the discussion. Jim Chappell (Colorado State University [CSU]) facilitated the discussion of map coverage and Bruce Heise (NPS-GRD) led the discussion regarding geologic processes and features at the park. After a welcome from Bruce Deutsch (NPS-PIRO) Walt Loope from the U.S. Geological Survey presented a brief geologic overview of the park and surrounding area. Participants at the meeting included NPS staff from the park and Geologic Resources Division; geologists from the U.S. Geological Survey; and cooperators from Colorado State University (see table 2). This scoping summary highlights the GRI scoping meeting for Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore including the geologic setting, the plan for providing a digital geologic map, a prioritized list of geologic resource management issues, a description of significant geologic features and processes, lists of recommendations and action items, and a record of meeting participants.
