Buses for the Technical Field Tours will depart and return to the Pittsburgh Convention Center. Costs include motor coach transportation. In some cases the cost also includes admission fees to attractions that are an integral component of the tour. See each tour description for specifics that are included in the cost. You are encouraged to register early!
To ensure the Technical Field Tours are accessible to all participants, we have ranked them in terms of level of difficulty. These rankings are tentative because some of the terrain or stops may be altered before the actual departure date.
One boot indicates prepared trails through the area with minor physical impediments. Walking would be less than 1 mile.
Two boots indicate more strenuous terrain and require 1 mile of walking.
