Come explore the volcanic history of Picture Canyon Natural and Cultural Preserve through the eyes of a geologist. From the dark lava flows and cinder volcanoes, to the ancient sea floor of the pale limestone underneath, we'll see examples of the Earth processes that formed the area and how the Rio de Flag continues to sculpt it today.

The 2.2 mile hike will start at the trailhead of Picture Canyon Natural and Cultural Preserve and loop along Tom Moody Trail to the Don Weaver Trail where we can see the Petroglyph Overlook and Pithouse, before dropping down into the valley of the Rio de Flag to cross the bridge, and then coming back around to the Tom Moody Trail as it climbs the flank of a dormant cinder cone volcano to a beautiful view of a waterfall on the way back to the trailhead.

Dr. Amelinda Webb has been exploring Earth's history ever since getting hooked on geology in college. From exploring rocky landscapes across the US to researching ancient sea fossils around the world to teaching Coconino Community College students how to listen to the story that every rock tells, Dr. Webb has a passion for the natural world and loves getting to share that enthusiasm.

This course is a fast, easy way for the nontechnical user to get comfortable using free AI tools to increase their business or personal productivity and creativity.

You need a laptop you can bring to class and you need to be comfortable using it. The course will take you from zero knowledge of how to create “prompts”–simple text instructions to an AI service–to an intermediate level of prompt expertise by the end of the course.

You will find that you don't need to be a great writer, designer, or marketer to create a solid business plan or marketing campaign. You don't have to be "artistic" or "super-creative" to make great social media posts or a create a fun, illustrated storybook for your child or grandchild.

Learning to prompt will open a whole new world of self-expression and a greater ability connect with others. You will be able to:

1. Boost your work or school productivity
2. Learn a new language or other skill more quickly
3. Easily explore new frontiers in art, design, and creative writing

The course includes a free ebook with examples, customizable prompting templates, helpful tips, and info on additional AI services and resources.

Class meets every Wednesdays for six weeks starting Sept. 3 from 5:30 p.m. - 7 p.m.

Ariel Strong is a techie who loves to introduce nontechnical folks to all of the fun and creative possibilities that breakthroughs in computing have made possible in recent years. She has worked in the field of software engineering since the early 1990s, and for the last seven years, has been specifically focused on Data Analytics and AI.

Ariel owns two businesses that utilize AI: Flagstaff Design and Marketing, a web services company, and FireFlight, a fire prevention and mitigation company. FireFlight uses advanced drone imaging techniques in combination with AI to provide home and business owners with straightforward, site-specific action plans to protect their health, safety, and property from the threats of wildfire.

Flagstaff is one of the best small cities in the country for night sky observing – this is why there are so many major observatories here! But it also attracts amateur astronomers from around the U.S. – many come here to retire so they can pursue their hobby.

As a hobby, astronomy is very rewarding. You can see planets, asteroids, galaxies, star clusters, planets and comets. It is important to have realistic expectations though – and in this course we will try to provide opportunities to look at different objects using telescopes, and show you how different kinds of telescopes work. While we hope we will have clear skies for observing, we will introduce you to the major ideas in class, and take advantage of planetarium software to demonstrate many core ideas.

This course is intended for people of all backgrounds. Yes, there will be some technical stuff every now and then but none of this will prevent you from enjoying telescope viewing.

Please bring warm clothing and a hat for nights when we go outside to use telescopes.
