Day 3 in the field: we have measured and sampled more than 60 meters of sand and mud, sampling every .75 m. The rocks are Miocene and Pliocene and are barely lithified. They look like rocks, but you sink in to your ankles when you step in a wet spot. We've also seen a whole set of Quaternary gravel terraces, some of which are tilted by deformation.

More details on Thursday!
