@0:41 no love for Clouds Rest

I live in a sediment filled Valley. The Valley that traverses the middle of California.

Am learning how to distinguish or rather identify an oolitic grainstone on a core log and had never heard pf an oolitic sandstone. What made that an oolitic sandstone when it has calcite? Wouldn't it be more of a grainstone, since there was no sand minerals but more of calcite, and lacked mud, more grain supported? I would have thought that was more of a carbonate rock, so how do l distinguish the two?

those papery layers I just filmed them a couple days ago on a hike within our Moenkopi east of Las Vegas and there is a name for them but will have to try to find it again. Its part of the aging process. I will upload a video shortly on them. Our Moenkopi permian redbeds we have here are similar construction but were not a branch of the sundance and were actually shallow ocean and tidal flats and such as you spoke of but they are older late permian so were quite a bit younger but exact same mechanism. I also read the science of how those gypsum veins form and quite awhile after the deposition and form from the bottom upward and related to great pressure almost a concept like freezing a stell bottle with ice it will break the bottle. will try to trace it again. Our permian redbeds are prolific and were the same timezone as dimetrodon but no fossils maybe the open shallow water was too vast as compared to those fossils of dimetrodon found in Texas which was a better environment and apparently closer to land? an interesting thing is the Sundance almost touched valley of fire and at the same time as the sandstone max certainly before it was fully lithified. If you went up in a hot air baloon at valley of fire you would be looking at the Sundance sea way incursion very shallow in the distance to the east.

I live near(ish) to Redfish Lake and I HIGHLY recommend people come check it out, if you're ever in Idaho. It's an incredible place. The Sawtooths are also epic! Idaho is amazing and I'm glad to have grown up here.

Another great video!!

Thanks!

Really interesting! My parents were geologists & I had no interest in rocks! 50+ yrs later I’m interested! Thanks for the great video! So neat to see the layers.

Soooooo cool 😎! Wet too 🤭🤓 You answered my question at what I saw yesterday!!!! 🥳 black basalt. I’m hooked , buying your books 📕

I live about 40 miles from where you filmed this, your site there is also very close to an old Spanish boat from the 1500’s the river pre-1900’s was enormous. I enjoyed you video as I’ve been exploring the local area for over 50 Years

Ásbyrgi!

U should travel to Vermont and do a segment on its 3 extinct volcanoes

Glad to see you two finally hooked up. Great to finally see Gylfi. Fab upload.

Same kind of formation near Clearwater lake in Wells Grey park in BC.

I wonder if this formation coincides with the flood basalts in eastern Washington, Oregon and a little of Idaho. I believe their dates are similar and would account for the tremendous depth of ash.

We are planning a trip to Iceland in September, so it’s really interesting to see your updates. Thank you!

Great roadcut could see AND understand thanks Shawn

I used to live on a road called Victory Road. There used to be a part where 3 roads came together and in the triangle of the 3 roads met there was a clay pit . When they widened Victory Road they had to dig out the clay out and fill it in so that section wouldn't shift when it rained.

what damage appears in the geologic record in the southern USA from the meteor impact 65 million years ago?

Thank you so much prof. Willsey for sharing this interview with us! Along with your vlog, which gives us the scientific, geological overview of what’s going on in Iceland, Gylfi’s is the only other one that I really enjoy - precisely because he gives a real, beautifully filmed, local view of his mysterious and beautiful country.

👍👍👍👍👍

Is there anyway you could do a short segment on the Icelandic lore of volcanoes and culture, like how Hawaii has Pele? I think that would be an interesting thing to cover. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work informing those interested in Earth sciences!

Great revision plus some in-depth I didn’t know thanks again

Shawn thank you so much for this every exciting video and thanks for these wonderful drawings ✍️ every good explained.

Can't wait until your next Update, Professor; just saw a video of pyroclastic eruptions that posted "6 hours ago"...!

👍

This is incredible. I was photographing in St George and Snow Canyon a few years ago, and when I left I took highway 18 near sunset. I photographed this one, and the Santa Clara one with Signal Peak and the mountain range glowing pink in the sunset afterglow. I was really taken by this little section of highway. Loved the lesson. Let me know if you’d like to join me on a Baja trip sometime. I live in San Diego and shoot down there a lot. I’m always curious about the geology of Baja. It’s so unique and raw. I’d love a geologists take on how everything was formed.

😊 Thank you for sharing!

This is very interesting. I didn't know about the types of pumice. Your videos are very educational.

This was one of the coolest places I saw when I visited Iceland :)

I love road cuts - thanks

You can generate a lot of green electricity with that much free heat.

I live in Twin...I'll have to go check this out sometime! Idaho caves are so interesting because of the network of lava tubes spanning most of the southern part of the state.

Prayers & thoughts everyone leave! ❤️❤️ We are praying for your beautiful horses so much 🙏🙏🙏

This is my first time here!! I struggled to attain a C grade in my college Geology class but I really enjoyed this video!!! Thanks, Prof. Willsey!!!!

Maybe they will consider using metal polls for power lines designed to be in close proximity to hot lava.

I gotta stop watching for a while ? Two new camping trips in two videos! Nice 👍 thanks
