Total time elapsed in this sequence of rocks is 2.7 billion years. Several have asked about high vs low-energy deposits. I should have expanded on the use of these terms. Larger grain sizes require more energy to transport and deposit than do low energy deposits. Clay-size particles are the lowest energy in that they can float in calm water for long distances before depositing. Very high-energy deposits like cobbles or boulders require a lot of energy to transport and are deposited quickly as energy is dissipated (water or wind velocity slowing down). There is a full range in particle size and energy required to transport them.

As I've aged and am better able to ponder things beyond survival for myself and family, which we know we spend most of our adult life doing. I'm not able to escape the light and pollution clouded sky's where we live nearly as much as I'd like.

And as I would pass by the mountains with all the exposed layers, I would always Ponder what has happened to create these layers. So when I found you, I found a treasure trove of answers to my questions. It's like reading a book now as I drive down the road with the information you have given me. And Myron, I can't express how grateful I am for the opportunity to know you through these videos.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video and the drone footage makes it even clearer and more awe-inspiring. I kept pausing it while I tried to imagine all the periods when the layers were being formed, when the lifting and lowering and eroding took place, and marveling at how the planet has gone through so many cycles of change. When the layers eroded, where did the dust and soil go? Part of the various periods of ancient to more recent Wyoming must have flowed or blown to the rest of the continent and vice-versa and maybe even somewhere else. It really makes you think about time and connection. Thank you for explaining it so well and showing up close how amazing it all is, Mr. Cook. I'm looking forward to the next video and hope to see these formations for myself in the near future. :)

Mind blowing stuff Myron. And before I comment, Much thanks for the priceless contribution! I like to think about the relationship between evolutionary geology and biological evo. Think of all the accidental incidents in geology that influenced bio evolution. Especially when you factor in the great extinctions including snowball earth. What an extremely rare chance that advanced primates like us could have evolved. And like the identity of a DNA molecule or a personal finger print, any evolved life form has it's own unique identity. So when you factor in the immense scale of time, we are like an intelligent form of bacteria that will come to pass forever after just a few hours on the cosmic calendar. That is how small we really are. We are an incredible gift from the stars! imo

Myron Cook, I am an ex Driller that prefers to have went into Geology. What do you mean by "Chug" water Please? You also mentioned something like "the presence of Iron (my words:: and it's resulting Oxidation) always results in the rocks turning Red. QUESTION -- Can "some" Rocks turn Black in the presence of Iron? I have noticed the Chattanooga or New Albany Shale (Devonian) is somewhat of a darker Black in color when comparing this Black Shale between Eastern Tennessee and Southeastern Kentucky with the Shale in TN being the more Darker. Is this caused by the Shale in TN containing more Organic Material rather than the Iron content. THANK YOU Sir. I enjoy your Videos. As a SIDE NOTE, may I ask, where did you study Geology at?

I grew up in the oil-rich east Texas region but, here, geologists were mostly involved in oil exploration. I don't think that I EVER heard any REAL discussion about the surface geology here. We have beautiful rolling hills of sandy loam, natively populated with pine trees, mixed with grassed plains. I surely wish that I had someone like you around, back then.

Alway, we always enjoy watching your shows Myron. We learn a lot, we're awed and amazed, and we're inspired. I have to agree with you that physically walking, or even watching you do that, through these tangible records of time, each with such varied details, really drives home the enormous passage of time much more keenly than just "hey, here's big number".

Sat like glued and watched this video -as always! And just like You said, I too get the same feelings, when I look at the nightsky, as thinking about our beautiful planet. Total awe! It is so incredibly mindblowing and humbling that we even exist! ? And the Time it has taken … ? ! I can not deal with that really. What I Can do, is deal with Today! So I will go out, try my best to appreciate my insignificance and pick up some littering in my neighbourhood! Thank You Myron! Also a thankful thought to your Uncle !🙌🏼

Thank you Myron, for taking all this time and effort to visit and explain all the layers right down to the great unconformity. If I could go all the way to your country, I surely would do this drive and take in the sheer enormity, and especially the time scales that divide each region. I am in awe, truly.

As I watched this very thought provoking video, I realized how much time and effort you put into your videos. The way you present the material is very logical and easy to understand, thank you for being a great teacher. I would be willing to bet that you have raised awareness of geology in countless individuals, and perhaps inspired many to pursue a career in the field.

I really enjoyed this perspective on geological time. I especially liked the superimposing of the actual environments over the geological formations. Your presentations offer great clarity on a very complex subject.

Myron, thank-you for this pleasing global perspective using absolutely stunning photographs and drone shots. Such a rarity to watch a top field geologist pick up the equipment and show these past environments. I’m beginning to see the deep time in the Big Horn Basin; one of 800 basins?! What a treat to see the actual textures, stratigraphic thicknesses, and the fossils. How cool to ponder the paleogeography and the sedimentation rates.

Amazing story, expertly told. The speeded up drone videos add so much, beautifully bringing out the 3D of this colorful part of Wyoming.

0:40 No joke: One million seconds is 11 and a half days. One billion seconds is 31 and half years. Time is a great way to illustrate the difference. A lot of your viewers probably can remember what they did 11 days ago, while not even been born 31 years ago.

Myron I'm thankful your uncle Cliff introduced you to geology, you have such an amazing talent for showing us the Earth's history through geology. I can definitely relate to wanting just 1 more day with a loved one that inspired us to become what we are today.
