Place Name Quiz List

There will be seven (7) place name quizzes scheduled during the last 10 minutes of lecture
 (see lecture schedule for dates of quizzes). Blank maps of each of the study regions can be found
at the web link, below.  Using the blank maps and an atlas you can
determine the location of each of the natural features on the place name lists. On the day of the
quiz you'll be given the same blank map and asked to find the location of a subset of the
locations on the list. I used a Goode's World Atlas, 21st Edition to locate the places on the list.

No make-up quizzes will be given.
