PAGE 8 TERRACE BAY NEWS SEPTEMBER 29, 1976 SCHOOL NEWS: Cont'd from pg. .7 .... GEOGRAPHY FIELD TRIP: The bottom was composed of rock flour (a fine sand created by the glaciers) with streams of water running through it creating miniature land forms. It also creates a material that acts somewhat like quicksand. In the process of investigation almost all of the students got muddy. We proceeded to Neys Park. The class hiked to the eastern point of the park. There were signs of glacial erosion on the rock. Also found were old boots belong- ing to former prisoners of war. The class followed a grown over trail, used by the miners of the 0ld Empress Mine. Empress Mine was a gold mine. With our flash- lights, we were able to see the vein of rock that was being mined. The vertical shaft was fifty feet in depth and full of water. After the discovery of the bats, and being very wet, the majority of the females decided it was time to leave, beating a hasty retreat to the bus.
