The started out looking to have great pillow promise, but by late afternoon the weather was only pleasant for lavas born in water. However, we gigapaned aplenty and picked apart pillows for senior projects. We even found some dualin’ MCJBs (massive column-jointed basalt) arguing about whether they were steeply dipping subaqueous sheets or pillow plumbing systems…use REPLY below to send you vote as to which should win the argument:)
Dualing MCJB’s – lava sheet? or guts of the pillow plumbing system?
Ellie Was was in a pillow smashing frenzy collecting samples for her research. Don’t let her cheery disposition fool you – she is deadly with a pillow hammer…

Alex Hiatt (temporarily adopted Dickinsonian earth scientist) was a man among pillows collecting samples of pillow rim glass for his senior project.

The ‘Wall of Pillows’ versus Dickinson Earth Scientists!! Alex Perpalaj, Liz Plascencia and Ellie Was mounted a valiente effect to conquer the Wall by measuring, photographing and sampling it – and in the end, even the Wall still stands, they have unravelled a few more of its secrets…

Well done, Team Iceland! (But don’t be fooled by the Dickinsonians, Alex. Wooster is where you belong). As for the MCJBs, I vote for pillow lava plumbing guts.
