GREYBULL, Wyo - A group of 16 Forsyth, Mont, high school geology students and their instructor, Gene A, Tuma, spent the past week in the Greybull area on a field and camping trip. Six adults of a Miles City geology group also accompanied the group.

Each year Tuma has brought his students on a field trip to this area, which includes the Sheep Mountain area. This is a huge anticlinal fold near Greybuli. It has been world renowned as the most classical example of erosion known to man. It is featured in most geology books this way.
The students also studied the Howe Dinosaur Quarry near Shell, where the giant Sauropod Dinosaurs were unearthed by the Brown expedition in 1930. W. D. Greene, Greybull Museum director, assisted Tuma on this field trip through explaining the fossil and rock display at the museum, slide programs, and guiding the field trips in the area.
