Hey Callan - Jeff Rollins here! It put a smile on my face to take this hike with you again! This was one of the first hikes from the geo tour of the nothern rockies I was on (2010 or 2011?) and inspired my love for the outdoors. I am studying for the FG and thought to look up your videos - it was worth it to see your hair this long 🤣. Seeing these outcrops again made my day and I am so glad you are still getting out to Montana! Should you ever travel to Denver, please reach out - I would love to catch up!
Question: We know the Gallatin Valley dropped along a normal fault how? Are there cores that show index strata below those of surrounding areas, something like that?
Nice video! I saw in the other comments that you had a young helper doing some of the camera work. It was a bit shaky but still helpful. The views where I assume you were holding the camera were moving around a little too fast when you were pointing things out. I would recommend slowing the panning to allow the viewers to see things better.
Yeah, the ten year old holding the camera for the first few shots didn't take the "please hold it steady" feedback well, which is why I handheld the rest of it myself.

The high-energy event that mixed the fine-grained limestone into the coarse-grained limestone could also be a tsunami.
Do you ever collaborate with Nick Zentner @GeologyNick ? Great knowledge, passion, and presentation...both of you.
Nick and I know each other, but we haven't yet worked on any projects together.
Beautiful landscape, thx. But, camera person should switch to decaf. =)
