I am just finishing the video, and I was trying to find the GPS coordinates for the large stone itself,So as to look it up on Google earth. I just saw your comment about one of the plants which he looked at, but I'm not sure which one it was. I am going to read again and maybe view again. The crazy thing is that I thought your very scientific definition was a poem at first. I thought it was a punk rock commentary on The biological featured experience. I enjoy the biology in addition. I am frankly addicted to digging everything that is true and interesting. This geology is a new endeavor for me, having had one basic geology class in College.

I remember, nearly 50 years ago now, climbing up Flat Top Mountain in West Richland with my Brother and two or three other guys. On top was a giant angular granite boulder as big as a house sticking out of the sand. I was still a year shy of receiving my geology degree from Central, but as I climbed up onto the erratic, I asked my hiking partners, In my best Bob Bentley imitation, how they thought this giant granite boulder got here. I pointed out that we were in a sea of Basalt, as far as the eye could see, in every direction, but here we were standing on granite. Did it fly out of a volcano? one of my friends asked. Nope, I said. My brother said, "maybe the Indians brought it up here?" I said, "now why would they do that?" "So, how did it get up here," someone else asked. "It floated in" was my reply. "Naw, bullshit, no way" they said, "on a raft" I said...

The drifts of small yellow flowers: 4-petaled mustard, probably Lesquerella douglasii, Douglas' bladderpod (Brassicaceae). The pink to purple pea-type flower is Astragalus purshii, woolly-pod locoweed (Fabaceae). The white flower is indeed a phlox, Phlox diffusa, spreading phlox (Polemoniaceae). All are native, and common to shrub-steppe in eastern Washington. Wildflowers of the Pacific Northwest, by Mark Turner and Phyllis Gustafson, for a basic field guide.

The old city Vantage about where the water meets the road where the road ends at the river. The old gas station buildings and some others used to be there just above the water line but are now removed. The old vantage bridge was taken apart and moved to a place where it now crosses the Snake River at the confluence of the Snake and Palouse rivers, SR 261, at Lyons Ferry. It is also interesting to note that on the east side of the river, the road comes back out of the water and makes its way back up out of the water up through the Frenchman's Coulee. Good stuff.

onX has a few different versions of their app, tailored to the user. One thing they have in common is they will show you private/public land, and if it's public record, who owns it. It's like AllTrails, but with hunters and off roaders in mind. I like onX for planning purposes. I get ideas for trails I want to travel on. To plan, track, and use as a GPS for travel, I prefer GAIA. Justin B. McBride has some good tutorial videos here on KZbin on how to use both. Google maps does work just fine, but GAIA really shines in the back country. If I can't decide where to go on any particular weekend, I look to another source. It's a place on KZbin that I've sent a bunch of people to. You may have heard of it. This guy named Nick goes for a walk and rambles about rocks. It's a great source of inspiration!

FYI...if you are interested in erratics, there is a spot you must see: Boulder Creek Rd in northern Ferry county, WA. The mountain tops at the summit of this road (east of Curlew, WA) is strewn for miles with huge boulders and thousands of smaller ones. This area was burned to a crisp in the 2015 wildfire, which consequently exposed these erratics. Now that the snow is melting away, and before the shrubs leaf out, is a great time to visit this boulder field. Park at the Deer Creek Sno-Park parking area. Easy walking. Or don't walk at all...the erratics are easily accessible.
@Fred_Lougee Жыл бұрын
Some notes. Love the videos, Nick. Finding a bit of the ash from 1980 is priceless. You don't have to tell me about it. I remember it. I was living in Easton at the time, freshman in high school. We only got a very slight dusting from the big May 18th blast but we still had no school for the week following because most of the teachers lived in Ellensburg and just could not get out. I remember seeing WSP and Kittitas Co. Sherrif Dept. patrol cars with huge air filter attachments on the front. My favorite erratics in Seattle are in Ravenna Park and Wedgwood. The first is in the middle of Ravenna Creek, almost underneath the 20th Ave Bridge. It's about 7 ft in diameter, and there's a wooden boardwalk right next to it. The second is atop the ridge to the east, about a mile away, and you can't get any closer than about ten feet from it because it's in someone's front yard. They were going to bash it up and haul it away when the area was developed after the war (no development prior to that because the proximity to NAS Seattle at Sand Point made the place an undesirable location for residential zoning) but smarts won put and they decided to leave it be. Another thing...read a few years back that some bright boy had the idea that the bluestone outer ring at Stonehenge was an erratic. You might recall that the big inner stones were quarried only a few miles away but the smaller outer ring stone are from Wales. It's an interesting supposition, sure, but no real evidence for and much against. About the only thing to suggest it, so far as I can see, is the idea of Neolithic Britons having difficulty transporting the stones all that distance. BUT, if the stones did come from a single erratic transported by glacier from Wales to the Salisbury Plain and then cut up into fairly regular blocks then where is the dross, the rest of the stone left over from the cutting? People would not have bothered to sweep up all the remaining fragments and chuck them in the Channel. They would have used any pieces large enough in other constructions, even if it were only in stone fences, and left the smaller fragments in situ. There should be some trace of them somewhere. Further, we know exactly where the stone was quarried. The remains of the quarry are still there, albeit much degraded and overgrown. Also, we know when this quarry was in use, and it well predates the construction of Stonehenge. The locals most likely quarried the stone for standing stones, used by villagers throughout Northern Europe to determine the solstices and equinoxes in order to be able to plant their grain crops at the most auspicious time. Some time later the builders of Stonehenge stole these standing stones and transported them to their current location.

Pedantic stuff first, aren’t all plants invasive, everything was rock first then the plants came? Just a matter of temporal cutoff so its up to you to think of the yellow whichever way pleases you. Despite the relatively bland landscape i found your walk interesting. It really helps to see these diverse locations to get in my mind the things you discuss in your talks. I wonder though about the complete lack of trees or evidence of there ever being trees in that area. Do you know if its pretty much always been treeless since last iceage? Or is it manmade grazing land thats kept trees at bay. The rounding of the granite speaks to water tumbling but is there any way to determine if that would be from much earlier so they were rounded before being floated in ice or if there were tumbled in their journey to their locations or even after being deposited by ice. Or and here’s a dumb question.. can erratics be deposited by volcanism, is blown there from eruptions events. I’d assume mapping would show a wedge distribution, but again the water tumbling then my have been earlier then volcanically deposited. That large boulder had a shattered look which I think you’d see from water tumbling across a landscape or kinetically thrown. My damn brain wont shut up , sorry mate. Yet again thank you for this view of the world I’ll never experience it does make me think.

It would be very easy walk past those boulders without a second glance, unless you knew what you were looking at. The granite itself is quite eye-catching ( I've got a granite cobble block as a door stop), but against a light coloured soil dusted with pale volcanic ash, they don't stand out a lot. We have erratics here in the UK, too, but they were embedded in the glaciers before they were dropped. The ones I know of are up on Norber Moor: great dark brown roughly egg shaped boulders, made all the more distinctive by the fact each pickup truck sized boulder is resting on a natural plinth of pale coloured limestone...

@36:15 there appears to be distinct 'Lichen Line' that gives evidence for the amount of soil surface loss on the site. For untold years, the soil surface covered the rock up to the point where the lichen is continuous. The alternative to the cause of the lichen line being soil erosion would be frost heave - probably unlikely if the rock has as much bulk as the video suggests.
