Terminal and lateral moraines in the Sierra Nevada. Reynolds photograph. Title page: 1872 Lone Pine earthquake scarp. David R. Jessey photograph. In Memoriam This volume is dedicated to Bobbe Adams who, along with her late husband Bob, helped found the Mojave Desert Quaternary Research Conference that has evolved into the Desert Research Symposium. Bob and Bobbe’s influence continues through the scholarship they established for the best student paper presented at each year’s symposium. Bobbe also donated her husband’s geologic field notes, maps, and photographs to the Mojave River Valley Museum in Barstow, where they are available for research.
