Preface

Since 1984, the ASCE Geo-Institute Chapter of the Colorado Section, in collaboration with the Mile High Chapter of the Association of Environmental and Engineering Geologists (AEG) and the Colorado Association of Geotechnical Engineers (CAGE), has organized a biennial series of conferences on a wide variety of geotechnical and geologic themes that are attended by civil/geotechnical engineers, geologists, and other geo-professionals. The geotechnical conferences are held at area universities or hotels and offer the opportunity for sharing ideas and experiences among Colorado's diverse geo-disciplines. Since 2004, ASCE's Geo-Institute has published the papers of the Rocky Mountain Geo-Conference in a total of ten Geotechnical Practice Publications, allowing the experiences to be shared with a worldwide audience.

The Steering Committee convened in November 2021 and held monthly meetings to plan for the 2022 Biennial Rocky Mountain Geo-Conference. The Steering Committee members included Christoph Goss (Conference Chair), Lindsay Tita (Vice Conference Chair), James Arthurs, Emma Bradford, Ryan Coe, Robert Duran, Madeline Enright, Kami Gardella, Joel Jackson, Aaron Leopold, Joels Malama, Cameron Mang, Ryan Marsters, Blake Nelson, James Olsen, Minal Parekh, Nicolas Potter, Will Rausch, Becky Roland, Jere Strickland, Tom Szynakiewicz, Tom Terry, Craig Vaughn, Christopher Wienecke and Richard Wiltshire.
