"and what else was I going to say" - sounds like me trying to record videos LoL. Thanks for making learning new geology fun.

This video is exactly what I needed! My Structural Geology class is going on a field trip there later this week. I've been reading the suggested reading for the trip, but this ties everything together nicely.

Deserves millions of views.

Awesome video. Maybe check out the St. Francois Mountains next? Their ancient calderas formed 1.485 billion years ago in southwest Missouri. Love the geology!

[@dianespears6057]

Nicely done. Thank you.

My dad used to take K-state students on field trips to the Arbuckle’s. He was a petroleum geologist.

What fun! Thanks for the informative and entertaining video. Not many people know that three of the most ancient mountain ranges in North America are in Oklahoma- the Arbuckles, the Wichitas and the Ouachitas. I’d like to learn more about the Wichita range. Will you go there?

[@txgunguy2766]

I've been through the Arbuckles many times and we used to have family reunions at Turner Falls before they were moved to the community center in Rolfe.

Great job !

[@Lord_Magikarp]

Such a damn fun video to watch
Hope more episodes come out soon

[@geobridge7556]

We have plans for more videos, so stay tuned!

Live less than an hour north of there. While driving along 35 it is common to see entire classrooms full of students out along the highway studying the formations.
I have been told the Granite Wash formation’s souther end is at the Ardmore Basin.
While surveying well bores in the North Texas Panhandle we commonly used the Granite Wash formation as a true verticals depth marker if it wasn’t the formation being sought for production.
It was around 7000 ft deep just a few hours distance north east of the Arbuckle Basin.

Informative and adorable. Good work guys!

[@framingvagrant]

I never heard about the Ardmore basin. Born and raised

[@aaronwilliams7505]

Now that I no longer have to hurry through places I'll take a look

[@brendabaker9710]

So I work at Turner Falls and I find lava rock at our properties constantly. So no information on an active volcano ever being in the mountain region. Explain to me why I am finding large volcanic rocks at the park?

[@Pagolchoda1]

Impressive. You are doing better

[@geobridge7556]

Thanks Souvik!

[@hgbugalou]

Do the Ozarks next.

[@sandykoval5459]
