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.
I knew this. However, I want to thank you for taking your time to explain it to everyone.
Your explanation of the environment of the formations and how they intertwine was fantastic.
Thank you sir. ❤
Just amazing the way you took us back in time ,it was mind boggling to have a sense of scale of these sedimentary basins and of course the beauty of thier depositional environments ...you never disappoint us with your video sir ..this video is a classic.. wishing you great health and peace of mind. Thank you 🙏
Every child that put mud in the gutters to create a dam during rainstorms should already know this. ... Unfortunately, apps.
What is up with the ridiculous globe thumbnail proving you arent that right sir? Who use dumb contradictions proven a fake in education?
Why use deceiving stuff?

The geological david attenborough!
Hopefully not 😮since Sir David is a propaganda artist. 😮😮
@@tomosbon7347 shut the fuck up he has an amazing voice
@@tomosbon7347Yes I agree, unfortunately
@@tomosbon7347can you elaborate? I've not heard of him being a propagand-ist. What and how does he push propaganda on/about? Genuinely curious as I've not heard this before. But I'm not a big Attenborough enthusiast, either.
Attenborough is an agenda-driven tool. Hard to listen to his drivel. Myron, however, is legendary in his genuine love for his field of study and desire to share it with a wider audience.
So someone asks, "how do you know that?" And he explains it perfectly. And now I can also explain it to others as well.
Thanks great uncle Cliff; what you put in that boy enriched many of our lives.
Wow! Another great video from Myron! He explains things so well. Thank you Myron, we appreciate all the effort you put into sharing your knowledge with us!
If so, I agree already so would like to get paid too, not much, but the principle for being kind, honest & paid for it sounds perfectly un-devious to my ears!@@UQRXD
I second that opinion, Myron is a wonderful teacher listening to these videos helps me get over the fact I never went to college and it shows it truly is never too late to learn
@@kenboydart
Sure college can teach you some things or 2 but you will end up brainwashed and weaker than to actually learn yourself.
2 myron doesnt know that much at all, its just that most folk dont know their stuff and believe everything ppl like myron say to them as it blows them off their feet because it makes a little sense.
We dont live on a globe ball of water for example, yet this biologist does not understand this basic knowledge; that proves a person dumb and incapable..
No education or college will make it so that you are actually born more intelligent........ I dont need a diploma/degree in stuff to show the so called experts who is born more intelligent and can tell them how it works withot having the need to blindly copycat books from others when it fits the system or narrative of history
Hey Myron!
My daughter will be 7 in 10 days. She LOVES your videos. Your teaching style has captured her attention and she is really beginning to show an interest in geology and is already contemplating time in a manner that I’ve never seen a child consider.
You went and sucked ME in as well, and I am grateful for that. I haven’t been this interested in a subject since I first got into emergency medicine about 25 years ago. Thank you for all of this!
I can't tell you how much I enjoy hearing this!
😃@@myroncook
My granddaughter is 6. She loves them too! Budding geologists!
I watch a lit of geology videos on CZcams, but what I absolutely love about Myron is that he focuses on the field evidence. I really appreciate his insights and how he explains principles plainly and with good reasoning. Thank you, Myron. You'll never fully how how much your videos impact others and bless them. You are appreciated, Sir!
It is nice to hear that not all Americans believe the world is not 6000 years old.
A good way to think of most such things. Words like “all, none, always, never, etc.” are very rarely correct to use, and proliferate like poisonous apples in Internet commentary, the refuge of the lazy. Very many Americans, I suspect, as well as human beings elsewhere on the planet, don’t think the world is 6,000 years old, simply because they’ve never thought about it, nor are likely to.
Yeah, when you’re wrong about some thing you want everyone else to be wrong about it also. You don’t want to be the only one in your class to fail a test so if you fail you secretly hope many other people if not everyone in your class failed it also. You think the teacher will give you a second chance because there must have been something wrong with the test if everyone failed. In this analogy, God is the teacher and if you die in your sins, you are going to you spend eternity In worse conditions than you can imagine. You will not be given a second chance once you die.
It's 6024.....duh
Being ignorant while thinking people are ignorant.
This video is just incredible. You keep getting better and better with your editing, footage, and explanations!
Myron, it struck me when you compared contemplating time in geological formations with staring into to unimaginable depths of a clear night sky. 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. I share to feeling of insignificance when looking into a canyon walls as well as the infinite sky's. Thanks for taking the time to create these wonderful lessons!😊
Love your use of the drone. Epic photography that really allows the rest of us to see what you do!
Not only have I seen time, partially due to your excellent videos, I've also heard the colors, tasted the sounds and smelled the light!
🙏💚💜💚🙏
I will never see the world the same way. Very well done. Thank you!
Wow, thank you!
Myron, I have watched many of your videos. So many good videos. I was out hiking today in some bentonite hills; recalling your videos on erosion. I see things of the past, now so much clearer.
I love to hear that
I wish I had had Myron teaching my geology classes some 60 years ago. Myron’s geology videos are absolutely the best.
Where has this guy been all my CZcams life! The sonorous voice, the clean crisp videography and inspired editing. Mr. Cook could film paint drying and I’d watch for an hour
Hello Myron. I travel all over the Midwest as a pilot car. Almost on a daily basis I am in awe with the nature I see. 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. You are a delightful human being to say the least.And this world is a better place having had you here. Godspeed
I love to hear this! all the best
Myron, I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos. I have learned so much and I love your calm, quiet voice as you teach. You are a natural and I can tell how much you truly love what you do. Thank you for all your marvelous videos.
Wonderful episode, Myron! I love geology for those stories, telling me what it is that I'm seeing, how it came about. The time dimension puts things into perspective as you said on a personal level, much like astronomy with its astronomical distances and time scales :) Thank you for making and sharing these amazing videos with us.
Another fabulous lesson! I've hiked a few of those areas and was thrilled to learn so much about them. Can't wait to hike them again now, with a keener eye ❤️
I love your videos SOOO Much! Thank you for introducing me to geology, and a big thank you to your great uncle Cliff, too.
P.S. I enjoyed it immensely.
Glad you like them!
My local preacher said 6000 years old 😂😂
I put that book in recycle bin 😁. Thanks for your video Your explanations and drone views are amazing 👍👍
Don’t throw away the baby with the bathwater. What is a day to G*d? You sill need Jesus to save you.
Thank you Myron for your wonderful videos explaining deep time. I have a greater appreciation for understanding just how long the formations around us that we often take for granted took to form. Please consider this a compliment, but to me you are the Bob Ross, or Mr. Rogers of the geology world :)
I get so excited when I see a new video from Myron.
I'm studying archaeology, so experiencing time through one's surroundings is something I find extremely valuable and fascinating. But the time scales involved in geology are just incomprehensible. Thank you so much for making this video and being such a great educator!
Archaeologic time overlaps the time of the near surface of the earth. You are wise to follow this information... just adjust in to your understanding of Ancient archeology to include recent Geology. That's where the truth lay in deposits.... Where I am in sw Ohio, the upper 3 to 6 meters of recent , (11,600 year old) Deposits. Stone age tools are found all around Ohio. The FLOOD covered it all , near post glacial melt floods. Pyramids all over America and messo America. yOU ARE ONTO SOME THINGS.
I got a deeper appreciation for geological from Randell Carlson to begin with. I live on a mountain in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains. Everywhere around here once you get 2 feet deep you hit sandrock, to learn that this mountain was at one time was a river delta blue my mind. Your channel is fantastic, to me, for a deeper dive into geological processes.
Thanks for the info, you do a great job.
Then please explain Uluru Australia? Its not what geological theory suggests at all. I am a material researcher, I go by the Evidence! Cant be denied unless a person suffers from menticide IMO. czcams.com/video/rW7N_LLqKMk/video.html&ab_channel=MudfossilUniversity
Reality is just a few million years old. Shit moves faster than we want to admit.
@@Vicus_of_Utrecht
What?
@@KOTAPA I subscribe to 'catastrophism'. I have countlessly watched entire mountains erode in a day. The Sumatra Tsunami not only killed at minimum 250,000 humans, it wiped islands and coastal region out. Plus, increased the Earth's rotation speed thus shortening our days by a few microseconds.
Edit: spelling
WOW, I just subscribed and turned on all notifications and 2 minutes later i get my girst new video. What great timing! Thanks for teaching us something interesting with every video.
You definitely won't be disappointed. Myron Cook is the teacher we all wish we had back in school. I can't help but feel like I'm a child again with a sort of wistful excitement watching him with a glimmer in my eyes
Welcome aboard!
That was an amazing journey across Wyoming over time and rocks professor.
Amazing story. Lovely video. I'm in complete awe of the depths of time, your meditation on 1" of deep sea ooze deposition as a life lived - really resonated with me. The cycles within and changes between so many different environments, over such unimaginably vast swathes of time, just incredibly humbling. Thank you for taking us on this journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for this really phenomenal educational video; we have gained tremendous insight from your education and often find ourselves pointing out information on rocks around us that we learned from you. This latest video is really wonderful, it's organized beautifully; thank you!
Wow, thank you!
What a great pleasure to watch this and hear this long story told so seamlessly.
Your videos are, as you should know, first class! I love the drone shots and google earth and for sure the whiteboard. I'd sure give you a metaphor award as yours are so helpful. Especially the one about dust, with which I plan to use when my wife wants me to vacuum or dust the house. Thanks again, Jim
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. :)
Myron, Wow! this was an amazing video full of really awesome material; I love how you organized the information; thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done, MC. I can read about this stuff and kind of get it , but when it’s presented in this form it becomes clear and succinct enough even for this highschool dropout to figure out.
You do us a good service.
Another great easy to understand video explanation of the geology around us. Thanks Myron!
My husband and I love watching your videos and get so excited when we get a notification that you put a new one out! Great content, narration, and beautiful scenes. We are learning so much!
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks Myron! Wyoming is breathtakingly beautiful! It’s so nice to get a better understanding of the formations and how they’ve formed over time. The modern day examples and photos are extremely helpful to imagine what it was like when the layers were created! 👌🌟🌟🌟
I'm going there.
Excellently presented and we really appreciate your interspersed drone views as it greatly assist in the overall structures. Thanks for sharing and the best of luck!
Love your channel. Peaceful and educational. I enjoy your real life examples and your whiteboard explanations.
Sure have. The most hitting to me was when I was in Loreto Mexico . We were out fishing and could see the water lines on rock formations . The captain said that was the water line from millions of years of ago. The water line was 100 feet over our heads. Makes you humble
Tick, Tick, Tick the clock is a ticking. The study of Geology is more a study of erosion and time, all this is mind blowing. And the time of man, the erosion continues, and time seem to stand still, but Tick, Tick, Tick. Thank you ALL stay safe
Myron bless you. My husband is a geologist by training but has had other careers since. I recently got curious about geology but could not stick with some of the CZcams channels on this incredible subject. Too sterile. We have been captivated by your joy and your passion. I am deeply curious about many subjects but this has become addictive lately. I work in mental health and I am convinced that if this was part of our general education, compulsory, the world would be saner, wiser and less stupid! We quite plainly love life, our blue dot and you! 👏🙏🐬🌹🌻
Thank you! Agee on mental health
Thank you so much Myron. Another beautiful explanation of our geological processes at work.
I just struggle to comprehend how just one location can go through so many different changes, its mind boggling.
I reckon your Great Uncle Cliff would be so proud of you.
Best wishes,
Geoff (Perth, Western Australia)
This is making me so much more excited for my incoming trip to the Bardenas desert in Spain, thank you for all the great content you're putting out Myron, you've singlehandedly rekindled my childhood interest in geology.
Well boggled mind. Question time in a few thousand years. Need to watch the video several hundred more times. Thank you Myron for putting it all together and showing it in a quiet enjoyable manner.
Myron: you hit the ball out of the park with this video! Your drone shots and diagrams bring the geologic time scale to life. Thanks!
Outstanding production. Love your enthusiasm.
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I live in Norway and I'm surrounded by amazing and beautiful landscapes. I don't have the knowledge to decode their mysteries, but thanks to your videos I've started to get a somewhat clearer perspective.
We are contemporaries and I've enjoyed hundreds of hours of classroom time, on both sides of the desk. I am very impressed with your approach to the material. Thank you.
Thank you
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!
Your visual explanation helps me so much. Thank you for starting your channel to show the rest of us "how it all came to be".
You are so welcome!
Incredible video, thank you so much Myron.
This is so well done Myron’s teaching is comprehensible. What a gift.
I am astonished by this vast depositional interpretation. Thank you for such a pleasant tone of style.
You're very welcome!
Always look forward to a new video from you. Love it please keep them coming, much appreciated.
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".
Well said!
Thank you Myron! Such an overwhelming sense of awe from this video. I have been slowly going through your channel over the last couple of months and I have learned so much.
Great video once again, Myron. Your passion for geology is really amazing. Thank you so much.
Wow, just wow... Thank you for this!
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.
Thanks!
Thank you for your work and this video. Just amazing.
Thanks as usual, Myron. Great historical geology lesson.
Thank you very much, Mr.Cook! Very interesting and insightful!
Another great lesson in geological formation, thanks 👍🙏
This video is amazing. I've never seen someone (and a professional in the field) take the time and put in the effort to systematically go through such a huge section of formations and explain each one. I didn't even know that so many layers can be read in turn and insitu across an enormous basin like this. Mind blowing and wonderful! And all presented in such an enthusiastic but kind and mild manner. Hats off to you good sir!
Wow, thank you!
Excellent film Myron more please.
Yet another fine romp through the geology of beautiful Wyoming. Thank you.
Fascinating, hard to comprehend the amount of time we’re looking at.
Once again, thank you for sharing what you love. Your knowledge and understanding and sense of wonder, compound the delight I feel in my meager understanding of geology and geological time.
Thinking about deposition over millions of years is comforting. Makes me think my problems are very inconsequential.
I like that thought
Wow I've learned so much thank you Myron. Mostly I've learned again how little I know! I am really impressed with all you know and share. Thanks !
Wonderful video. Thanks for making me realize time.
Awesome....keep them coming really enjoy them 😁👍
Thank you for the great lecture 👏
These videos are so well done. And super fascinating. Thank you for making them!
A fantastic video of both the beauty of the landscape, and the geology. I learned so much from this, thank you.
This was brilliant. Thank you so much!
Thank you for such a wonderful and complete informative video. Time is simply mind=boggling. I'm totally in awe of this planet we call home.
Amazing presentation Sir. Thank you for taking the time to make and explain this topic.
Thank you for yr video.
Some of my favorite most relaxing inspiring videos.
Enjoyed greatly!
Another great video. Always love learning about geology.
Always excellent Myron video. Wish I could do an apprenticeship with this guy. Wow what a collection of knowledge and excitement to glean from.
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.
As usual, an incredible, easy to understand explanation of deep time. You are an amazing teacher.
Glad you think so!
Welcome back Myron! I missed your teaching
What a wonderful trip through time. Thanks for making these greatly insightful video’s. Greetings from the flat Netherlands!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an ANCIENT Earth we live on!
I really enjoyed this. Thank you for spending the time to make the video and share your accumulated knowledge with us in such a clear way
Thanks! Love your videos.
This is just unbelievable and hard work, what with all the efforts that's gone into the recordings with drones and what not and not mentioning the travel and traversing of places far afield; I feel like I'm on a field trip and actually experiencing the locale and its geologic history firsthand. A million thanks from Azerbaijan!
Ciao Myron, I'll see your footage tomorrow, but it's a pleasure to hear your voice.
Well, I watched the whole video and you did a great job💯 I am very impressed by it. You taught us a lot about the different rock layer types and showed how they appear visually and texturally. I love how you presented things in the "How the Earth Was Made!" pictorial way so that we could see what types of environments created those rock layers. I guess that must be how geologists present things generally. I loved so much your excellent use of drone film footage to give us a bird's eye view of each rock layer❣My father was a pilot so I know he would have appreciated that❗I like especially how you showed us all of those biological fossils peculiar to each rock layer❗I am extremely interested in paleontology so that connection interested me so much❣ 💯💯💯
This is my new favourite geologist channel by far 👍 Covering everything anyone wants to learn
Its a lot of fun learning with you. Keep up the great lessons!
Thank you sir
Thanks Myron. This summary has helped me to put the field trip in context.
Glad to hear it, Cap
Another video episode - blew another number of brain cells in awesome geology depths and time lengths.
