  • We spent almost two weeks down in Hurricane Utah learning how to map the geology. We spent many days hiking the hot desert measuring many different rock outcrops as well as exploring unique locations and places. We found dinosaur footprints, visited a museum and explored dark lava tubes. In this video, you will see some of the things that I experienced. It was a long, hot, and expensive trip but it was worth it.
    I hope you enjoy this video.

    Dang man that's quite the trip.

      It was. Now I would like to go there again but on my time and the freedom to explore anywhere.

    So neat to see the dinosaur foot prints. I'm from SLC Utah and this would be fun to go and see. What is your major? Wow! Those lava tube are awesome! I didn't know we had them in Utah. I knew we at one time had volcano eruptions.

      I'm majoring in Geology and if you get the chance, you should go check out the lava tubes and the dinosaur foot print. I plan on returning back to Utah one of these days.

    Those dinosaur tracks are awesome! I’m more interested in the Red Beryl and Topaz super specimens when it comes to Utah .. but yeah would be a trip to see those tracks. So I assume your school is teaching you the evolutionary billions of years geology paradigm vs the catastrophic flood short time paradigm? I’d suggest some philosophy of science and epistemology courses to go along with your main Geology major. Have fun, be safe, and find some killer terminated crystal on matrix specimens to show us all 👍

      I'd love to go back into Utah on my own to rockhound and prospect. Red Beryl is worth a lot I heard recently and would be a impressive mineral to find. In college, I did have a class that talked about different ideas of how rock formations came to be with one being the idea of it all being deposited by water which I'm guessing is the catastrophic flood you mentioned. Personally I and many other geologist don't believe in that idea due to the vast amount of geologic evidence that goes against proving it. I wish you luck in finding some good crystals as well and hopefully we both can find some killer terminated crystals.

      @@GeoForge There is plenty of evidence for catastrophic plate tectonics, and PhD Geologist and Paleontologist with credible flood models to consider, but your not going to be taught it without epistemological bias in the liberal universities whose professors salaries depend on teaching their paradigms whether they believe it or not. Halton Arp was thrown out of Cal Tech for his theory of stellar red shifts .. which went against the astronomical paradigm of the mid 20th century taught in all the universities, and had to move out of the country to continue to work, and now with the new data flowing in from modern instruments like the JWST he is finally being taken seriously. Anyway yeah good luck out in the field with the mineral specimens, and learn how to use a Sierra blaster rig if you haven’t already .. those things will open up a lot of field collecting opportunities, and you don’t need a license 😬👍

    Why map it just use Google Maps and go swiming. Now lets talk about all the rocks you brought home to show us.

      Our 2nd camp we moved to was right next to the reservoir so, we some swimming on our free time. I only brought back a small handful of rocks from this trip. I grabbed some gypsum and a few fossils.

      @@GeoForge yes I know I saw you picking them up so now how about a video about the rocks you brought back Im sure we would all like to see them.
