PUBLIC LECTURE: 

“Across the Himalayas from Kathmandu to Lhasa
- geology, scenery and people.”

Last October I travelled by Landcruiser across the Himalayas. My illustrated talk will include highlights of the varied and interesting things I saw on my journey through Nepal and Tibet. I will also include a basic appreciation of the geological history and importance of the Himalayas, the home of the world’s highest mountain.

NB The talk is designed for interested members of the public, all welcome

Sunday, 21st February 2010 at 12.30pm. Talk starts at 12.30pm, open at 12.00pm if you are early. Afterwards why not have a browse around the Museum which will be open to all.

Where? Woolnough Lecture Theatre, Geology Building, UWA.

They have put in new electronic bollards so you can park in Car Parks 18 or 20. Parking is FREE on weekends if you use the red(staff) bays. If you need to park next to the Museum in Car Park 19 for easy access to the Lecture Theatre (no steps) via the lift (door is off the tunnel through the building) you have to press the button and talk into the phone at the entry point to Car Park 19, and they will let you in. On exit just wait for the bollards to go down automatically.

ENTRY: Free, but a gold coin donation for the Museum is encouraged. Seats are not reservable.
