    The WMMI invites you to its Family Exploration Day on geology. Among the activities, learn about ice age fossils of mammoths and pollen from a Florissant Fossil Beds Park Ranger, participate in "building" a mammoth and learn how to identify mammoth teeth and ice age plant pollen. There will also be rock and mining activities and you will have a chance to see dirt from the planet Mars. Have a rock or mineral that needs identifying? Members of the Colorado Springs Mineralogical Society will be on hand to perform rock and mineral identification. Included with paid admission. Make sure to reserve your spot!
