@@myroncook Myron ! What a great journey you took us on ! It's truly amazing that so many clues are still visible to anyone, in plain sight ! Now, there is just one tiny issue, and I hope that you take this as a form of well-mannered constructive criticism, sir. The title is just every so slightly misleading. To me, in my mind, "How Geologists Discovered [the Seaway]" would lead me to think that the video would be about those specific geologists and the actual specific discoveries made by them over time, in a historical context. This was especially true for me since you mentioned the 1869 expedition by John Wesley Powell. I expected more specific historical details to follow in his footsteps. Alas, we did not get that. Now, I know that this is not a true historical channel, in the normal sense. Instead this is a great, shall I say spectacular, channel about geology over a much vaster historical timeline. Keep up the amazing work, and I speak for everyone when I say, NEVER STOP !!

@@myroncooki eatvhed your video about the fans coming from river deltas and how far they go out to see, as well as the channels you noted running across the bottom of the ocean. I believe you said they were caused by the rivers and underwater currents, but it wasnt fully understood. I disagreed, its my understanding that the paths the major rivers follow were not originally carved by the rivers themselves, the eater just took the path of least resistance. I adhere to the electrical model of the universe, in said model its understood from accounts of the ancients that great cataclysms of an electrical nature happened. These events occured before life even existed here. These planetary scale electrical storms literally carved out huge swaths of land and killed untold numbers of species in the known catacylsms (it wasnt a meteor it was a global electical storm and a scale we can hardly imagine). Look at electrical excavation experiments done by many experimentalists. It shows the exact same fratures we see on he surfaces of every celestial body we observe.

I'm in Scotland, studying plants for research/conservation - my degree doesn't even brush up against geology and I can't understand why not! It's so interesting, and holds so much information about why the current configuration of land is the way it is, and why plants grow where they do. I love to read rock formations and try to visualise how they formed and what might have lived around them, your videos are like learning to read. I'm in an area that was repeatedly flooded and reforested through the Carboniferous, I've got chunks of fossilised rainforest from alternating layers of mudstone, shale and coal capped by massive slabs of sandstone that I can now visualise better thanks to your video. Feels a bit like deep time vertigo. It's also really interesting to see formations that are nothing like what we've got since our landscape was scraped smooth by ice.

I have a very distinct memory of being in the red feather area of northern Colorado with my grandfather hiking around and exploring the area. On a ridge roughly 8-9,000 feet above sea-level, I found a cluster of curious looking rocks that later I found out to be fossilized clams. I think the finding of that specimen and the knowledge of just what it was was the antithesis of my lifelong obsession with rocks. Thanks again for the great video.

And now, many decades further, I am able to virtually revisit these in a new light even though I may not be able physically to do so. A subscriber thanks you!

I worked down in Goblin Valley last summer and saw the mancos shale and the Morrison formation so much. The earth reveals a lot about its history through rocks and to imagine those ancient landscapes and how they affect the land today is amazing! Factory Butte in the golden hours of sunlight is incredibly beautiful

Absolutely fascinating, with amazing explanations, a most wonderful job! I hated to see it end. Building up at only a 1/4 of an inch every 100 years is mind boggling. Thanks
