The Dishman Hills Conservancy is hosting a geology lecture Thursday from 6 to 7 p.m.

A local geologist and Conservancy board member, Michael Hamilton, will speak at the Zoom lecture. The Dishman Hills, just south of Spokane, have a unique and distinctive geologic history. Some of the rocks there are more than a billion years old, ranking them amongst the world’s oldest.

The 30 minute talk will be followed by a Q-and-A session. The event is free & open to the public.
