I just spent three days on another great field trip to Bancroft, Ontario, and while I will post photos of the fabulous structural features we were observing, I thought I'd also put down some thoughts about how to comport yourself as a participant on a geology field trip. Some of this is fairly specific to students, but a lot of it goes for 'grown up' geologists as well (and hopefully we already know it!) Most of it is things I've observed people either doing well on a trip, or forgetting to do - it's always a mix. (I screw these up myself from time to time, so it's not like I'm a paragon of field trip virtues. I have to remind myself to do all this as well!)
