Time It is anticipated that a school field trip to Miller Springs will last at least 5 hours on site. Season Late fall and early spring are the best time to visit if the main focus is on geology. The majority of trees are without leaves and geological features are much more evident. The Miller Springs Field Trip is designed to provide students with a collaborative, inquiry based learning experience. Each based on a specific academic area.
Students visit each station in round robin fashion.
Some stations require 1 hour for each group. Others will be about 30 minutes in length.
