If you have not watched any of Myron Cook's video explainers on geology, you are in for a treat. He is gradually expanding beyond Wyoming to other parts of the west, but much of what he says can be used anywhere.

thank you for the link.  Watched a couple vids today.  Very interesting.  He's a good teacher.  Informative without talking down to his audience.  Seems like a great guy.

Glad you liked him. It is almost like walking around with him while he sort of thinks out loud.

Yes they are. So glad not to have the hype, music, weird grins and rapid fire narration.

Tony, Myron is very good at conveying concepts and information, and yes it’s nice not to have the hype.  I greatly enjoy his video’s.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks.  I would love to go see the rocks, but I can't figure out where they are.  However, I did discover Natural Bridges by Terry, Mt. during my search.  They look interesting to see.

His latest video uses google earth quite a bit. That may help with locating where he is talking about.

You are welcome, Foy. I was leery of the biggest landslide video, but then found it to be really interesting.

Steve, he has me looking forward to the next videos he produces. Just good solid guy.
