A favorite project and why? 

My favorite project as a Professional Geologist was surface water sampling to support the Azurite Mine site cleanup near Darrington, Washington. This project involved flying into a remote field site via helicopter and hiking to sample locations across steep mountainous terrain to collect water quality samples and stream discharge data.
