Welcome
Welcome to USGeology.com, a portal to some of the most interesting and
beautiful spots in California and the West. This is my personal website where I
display some of what I feel are my most striking photos taken of various areas to
which I've traveled. Some areas are interesting, others are mysterious. Some  
offer beautiful vistas, others offer solitude in which you can ponder your place in
the world. Whether at the ocean, desert, mountains, or valleys, each outdoor
experience will leave each person with their own impressions and memories. So
get out there and explore what nature has to offer!
