George A. Wheeldon has been a resident of northern California’s geographically diverse and scenic El Dorado County since the early 1960s. There, he has pursued his boyhood passion for discovering how “stuff works,” as he says, and especially for uncovering the secrets of Earth’s formation.

A student, teacher, professional geologist, and all-round curiosity seeker, George has amassed an amazing storehouse of knowledge that he shares on a daily basis with his students, colleagues, and friends.
