White Birch Books to host Brian Fowler Thursday CONWAY — White Birch Books located in North Conway Village just south of the park, across from TD Bank, is hosting a presentation by geologist Brian Fowler on Thursday, Feb. 16, starting at 6:30 p.m. Fowler recently published a one-ofa-kind map, “The Surficial Geology of Mount Washington and the Presidential Range.” Fowler has a slide presentation that presents, in layman’s terms, his work as a field geologist and the mapping of the surface geology of the Presidential Range. The presentation is free and open to the public. Surficial geology is the scientific study of deposits occurring on or near the surface, including soils. Fowler’s new map is a compilation of 45 years of field work done independently over the years as well as in cooperation with the U.S. and N.H. Geological Surveys. The map depicts and interprets the geological deposits and features that overly the bedrock beneath the Presidential Range. Although not a trail map, it can certainly be used while hiking to differentiate the places that modern geologic theories are made of. Fowler is a consulting geologist with many years of hiking and working in the White Mountains, including many years as a trustee and president of the Mountain Washington Observatory. For more information about the event, or to reserve a copy of “The Surficial Geology of Mountain Washington and the Presidential Range,” call White Birch Books at 356-3200.

2007 production was done at the less intimate stage at the Eastern Slope Inn Playhouse. This new production, which opened Feb. 9 and is running Thursday through Saturday for the next three see next page
