How did the famous Badlands of South Dakota form? In this video I take you on a geology field trip through its most important formations and tell you how it formed. Why are some of these rocks red, and others grey? The Western Interior Seaway is the cause! Welcome to the American West: the gateway to amazing earth history.

I came for the classical European linguistics, stayed for the geology. I wonder if you'd ever get into specific minerals. Obviously, as a materials scientist, I'm heavily biased, but I can see you having some unique insights about why certain minerals form in parts of the world, and how they might affect their properties.
Thanks so much! Other than my casual mention of bentonite in this video, you’re that that I did indeed leave out a good mineralogical description; indeed, these videos are mostly stratigraphic summaries, things I consider “big picture,” but I hope to provide a number of ancillary videos on topics like mineralogy during Geology January.
@@polyMATHY_Luke oh that's wonderful! I am very much looking forward to that!
40 years since my first geology field trip. There's no substitute for getting out into the field to see the rocks in place.
It’s something everyone should try.
I lived in Rapid city for almost 5 years and would come to the badlands quite often to hike. I cannot understate how quiet the landscape is, the silence only broken by the wind, and then by all the tourists arriving. 😅
Isn't that amazing, the silence? It's incredible. When the Canyonlands video comes out, I hope to really immerse the viewer in that experience of pure silence in the middle of the day.
Thanks for watching!
love the "geology series", well done! :)
Thanks so much! Please share this video with others who like geology.
Your voice is very soothing. The 'merican and young version of Attenborough.
Also Geology was my minor and I loved it. Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
I really love when you make these videos.
Thanks! Many more to come. Please feel free to share in the geology places around the internet (I don’t know any, and in any case they usually frown on a creator promoting himself). The more views these get, the more od them I’ll make.
Absolutely gorgeous, what a treat. Thanks, Luke!
Thanks is much for watching and sharing, I really appreciate it!
❤ this video is a masterpiece, from the scenery to music, the photography and the calmness in the atmosphere ❤ thank you for the experience!
Grazie, Ilaria! Sei dolcissima a dirlo. Possiamo ringraziare Irene per la sua visione artistica.
I hope these videos get good engagement Luke, this has been some of your best work and I’m looking forward to more. You rekindled my interest in geology and geologic time periods 🙏
It has been a riddle for me for a long time so thanks for the explanation. Your knowledge is impressive.
Thanks for watching and sharing!
Started following from one of your Latin videos. Didn't know you were a fellow geologist
How great to have another geologist here! Yes sir, BS and MS in Geological Sciences.
the paleosol reminds me of the zhangye danxia, with all the cool colors
Thanks for the geology videos!
Thanks for watching and sharing!
I did a deep dive in your videos about language and bidets a year or two ago but lately I've been more interested in geology... Until tonight I looked at your channel for the first time in a while and find this. Gmta
Great! There are many more geology videos, and yet more to come: czcams.com/play/PLQQL5IeNgck0AP7zERyrucrujED9OoB4m.html&si=YRQDFNjJyBRu-ImR
Interesting topic! A little outside of what I'm normally into, but the path to polymathy is being familiar with a little bit of everything, I guess, lol.
Ευχαριστώ!
@@polyMATHY_Luke παρακαλώ!
A geological paradise.
True!
The best part is the cameragirl behind the scene :D Great video! Thanks.
I strongly agree! She’s the best part of every video, and indeed my every day.
We drove out to watch a beautiful sunset over the Badlands. Someone had just found a fossil of some sort of small toothed skull poking out of the surface right on one of those visitor lookout points.
What a cool experience!
Love the geology content. I wish more of your viewers would give these videos a chance.
Thanks, Lando! It’s mostly CZcams’s fault since it refuses (for the moment) to show these geology videos to my audience. Thus for now I have to kind of start from scratch, as if I were making a new channel, and eventually draw an audience either from my existing subscribers or new ones. If fine folks like you continue to watch and share these geology videos, it will signal to CZcams that the videos have value, and will show them to more people. It’ll take time.
This month begins a new campaign to remedy this issue; I hope you enjoy what is to come!
È così interessante! Grazie Babby ❤
Grazie a te per la bellissima regia, amore mio! ❤️
I was born on the Pineridge (Lakota) reservation... if you want to do a collab on what the Lakota call the "badlands" and the deeper spiritual cosmology behind it, hit me up!
Absolutely! Write to me at ScorpioMartianus at gmail
I'll bet if you were a settler in a Conestoga wagon, you wouldn't think that was beautiful at all. More like terrifying!
Agreed!
Amazing and well researched video. Now do it again, but this time in ancient coptic
Such things are found on my other channel, ScorpioMartianus
I can not believe it! When I' ve seen your interview where you said that you love Italy for the sun I thought " in America you have much more sun if you go to Arizona....
I just got back from a trip to Southern Morocco. There were fields of stones the size of a fist as far as the eye can see every few inches, lying on dried sod. I have since tried without success to find out what caused them.
A fascinating question! If you find some photos of this online (or if you post them on a photo sharing site) write a new comment with the link so I can check it out.
cool video
Glad you like it
reminds me of the strate visible from Castell Bran Gogledd Cymru which I first saw as a teenager. Never understood why my computer shows these in preference to those who first captured my geographic inagination. Great fosille sto be found in Cymru by the way . Jurrasic coast continues westwards .

Do You have a group to talk in latin? I am learning this language.
linguistically, I'm a bit of a lumper. I like to regard languages as fewer, more diverse entities rather than many, less diverse entities. Scandinavian is one language to me.
That’s a perfectly reasonable position
The Yellow Mounds are probably more impressive than most things built by the hands of men.
They really are spectacular. Very much worth the trip. This series will highlight some must-sees.
forgive me for my stupidity, but how come no sort of topsoil got into the valleys or even on the mounds?
That’s a great question. When it rains, the high plains on the north side of the escapement definitely has some erosion that goes over the scarp; those sediments mix with the erosional products of the escarpment, and they all are brought to the streams and rivers further down in the valleys.
Since the scarp is so steep and rainfall relatively infrequent (only 480 mm a year, whereas in my native Pennsylvania it’s about 1004 mm a year), there isn’t much collection of erosional products of Quaternary age sediments in the Badlands except in the riverbeds.
You just piqued my interest regarding what epic catastrophies and monsters took place in now silent geological sites.
Yes, I find these mysterious excite my imagination just as the ancient world of Rome or Greece or Egypt.
@@polyMATHY_Luke That's where paleontology also comes in, which not only goes hand in hand with geology as you well know but also something I'm somewhat interested in, myself. Not more than anthropology or archaeology or philology, though! As you can see, most of my fields of interest concern mankind and humanistic endeavors.
One of the next videos will be on fossils found in the Badlands.
Did you ask Jackson Crawford before you did the Classical IE linguist/mountain cowboy shtick, or is this just a genre now?
I’ve been wearing a cowboy hat in the desert on CZcams for more than seven years: czcams.com/video/ChVgJdAIX2c/video.htmlsi=3BE_3NDHBHHDYLDk
My friend Jackson was involved, however; he took me to a great western hat store in the Rockies where I bought this one.
@@polyMATHY_Luke Alright, a genre it is. Yez still need to figure out rocky vistas between yezselves methinks
Anno MMX post Christum natum apud saltus in Arizona fui qui „Canno maior“ appellatur. Non expers pavoris propter altum abyssi fui :-D Gestio tamen recurrere in Americam „Terras Malas“ visum. Pro dolor parum pecuniae otiique his temporibus habeo
That’s an awesome field Λουκιη! Grātias ago! Thanks! From Israel to you! Love you! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤! @polyMATHY_luke
