What’s Missing? Geology Walk with Bob Titus

Join well known regional geologist Dr. Robert Titus for a walk through Olana’s picturesque landscape and explore the ice age history of the Hudson River Valley. Travel back through time and learn how glaciers sculpted Olana’s striking views. Enjoy Robert’s storytelling approach as he explains the origins of Frederic Church’s landscape art and architecture. The two hour walk will cover about 1 1/4 miles of carriage roads. $10 per person/$5 for members. Meet at the main entrance to the Historic House.

During this series of walking tours with outside experts, visitors will explore unseen aspects of Olana’s landscape such as the geologic history of Olana’s landscape, 19th-century land use histories, and the connections between indigenous knowledge and Church’s beloved scenic views. Each walking tour will take place outside in Olana’s landscape for around 45 minutes to one hour and connect to What’s Missing?, an exhibition of site-specific outdoor artworks by Ellen Harvey and Gabriela Salazar that respond to missing pieces of Olana’s landscape history.
