Day Ninety-Nine: Geology Walk Downtown North

Love the geology walks in down Portland, sponsored and led by folks from the Geology Society of the Oregon Country (GSOC). 

This green-grey slate building is my favorite skyscraper. 

These markings in the slate patio floor show how deep pressures forced a softer rock material to buckle, illustrating geologic forces.

Sandstone buildings show exfoliation from rainfall  and temperature changes.
