this was fantastic! both are very knowledgeable & great at explaining how/what/why. what a great idea to have geologists on a rock hunt. brilliant! but i enjoy your enthusiasm on a regular basis. having experts is good on an occasional basis. btw the spotty rock at 11:50 is gorgeous. at 14:40 this reminds me of a gustav klimt painting. 17:20 is stunning but somehow nightmarish. there’s a slimy creature wrapping itself around the pale stone. lots of great examples today. i’m def going to watch again

I really didn't expect to be looking up someone named Gustav in order to respond to a comment, but here we are. I did see a slight resemblance.

I really like your channel and I bet you would love our North Cascades crystalline core. It draws Geologists from far away to work in the complicated geology

What an awesome video, what a treat! That was a great refresher for rock identification. Thanks for the fun video and please pass along my appreciation to Paul and Nat!

Thank you so much for this! I learned a lot from the 3 of you! I especially appreciate all the different examples of quartzite. This video helped me identify some of the rocks that I’ve collected in AK and WA:) I subscribed to Dr. Nat’s channel!

I have watched this video three times. I have learned so much about our Great Lakes geology from your guests. Thank you!! Sometimes the information from geologists bypasses my understanding. But in this video, it sticks to the wall real well.

Yes, Nat and Paul are great teachers. I think I'm about due to watch this one again too.

I don't think I rocked in this video. I held the camera. Nat and Paul sure rocked though.

Smashing geology lesson, thank you, Dr. Nat, shall subscribe to your channel. Wish I could get out to the seashore for fossicking - I did love living on Lake Michigan, but never truly appreciated the enormous bounty that was potentially beneath my feet! All that HISTORY...

Where are you from, Small Wonda? I have only heard the term "fossicking" from Australians, primarily Jesse of Rookie Rockhounding.

@@MichiganRocks I'm in Tasmania nowadays - but I've been round the bush! From UK, to MI, IL & WI! A convoluted route! Actually I was subscribed, just didn't seem to have the notifications activated! Sadly having major mobility issues the past 1yr +, so can't even get down to the beach where we do have some curiosities which I think your geologists would appreciate! 🙋♀🙋♀🦘🦘🐾🐾😊😊 SO do appreciate your rock hounding jaunts. Used to love it around Petoskey & Mackinaw Island. Safe fossicking!

@@MichiganRocks Always liked to see what was round the next bend! And I'm sure glad I did it when I could, as now I'm just going round the bend!! (On the off chance I might be mobile once again!) It does amaze me when someone says here we are on the Columbia River, on Grandfather Mountain, Porcupine Mt., Campbell River, some desert ghost town like it's something special & I think, I've been there!! So grateful I always liked travel more than shopping!!
