The full schedule of field trips, presentations, and workshops is now online, including the grid schedule, which shows how trips may overlap. Please note that this schedule is still a draft and additional programs may be added prior to registration day.

We recommend finding several alternate programs for each time slot, as many programs fill quickly—some fill just minutes after registration opens. Updated presenter biographies are also online, so you can learn more about everyone leading trips this year.
