Great video, they are volcanic intrusions mountains. People sometimes incorrectly refer to them as the main intrusives of a volcano, but this is incorrect. Mount Coonowrin, Beerwah and Ngungun among others display prominent cooling columns. The SEQ region is full of volcanic structures too, such as Main Range, Focal Peak and the Tweed Volcano containing Mount Warning/Wollumbin.
Great footage of the climbing trail up Beerwah, and great info/animations. If you pause the video you'll see people at different stages of the scramble.
Great video. Very well explained. What is the name of the pyramid shaped mountain behind you around 4.38 ? Is this the pyrmid shaped mountain you can see from as far away as the Gold Coast? Thanks.
Hi........thanks for your enquir. At 4:38 there are 2 mountains. Coonowrin (Crookneck) is the slender one with Mt Beerwah behind it. The presenter Declan, is on top of NgunGun. Mt Beerwah is the tallest and would be seen from the Gold Coast
Well done, Certainly the best video on the internet for anyone wanting to understand the Glasshouse mountains. Really can't see why 1 in 3 have given the thumbs down. You do really have to wonder about people these days.....
Kevin - two years later, I've just now seen your comment, and I'm incensed. This was not plagiarised - we were given the script by the Glasshouse Community centre, and we were asked to produce this. My son put so many hours into this, while he was trying to do his high school work, and so did many friends, who helped us carry so much gear up many mountains. It was such hard work. Not to mention the team who filmed and edited this. Our family paid for the helicopter that took those amazing shots. Who said it was plagiarised? Please let me know. Thanks to all the people who actually appreciated this production. It was very hard work, we loved doing it, we love the Glasshouse Mountains and Kevin - whoever you are, I think you're just a loser troll. Declan did a wonderful job, and I hope that it has helped people learn a bit more about this magical area. I've seen the recent comments from people who appreciated this film, thank you so much. We worked very hard to produce it 🙏
The glasshouse Mountains, are what I refer to as ghost volcanoes, to which the solidified magma of what used to be Beneath a now eroded volcanic cone, is exposed either being a mixture of different Granite granodiorite, Trachyte, or rhyolite . and why would magma intrude, unless there was volcanic peak once above ground. One thing is for certain once the ocean floor on the east and west coast of Australia reach over 400 million years old they will begin subduction beneath the coasts giving us volcanoes again .
Geoff - are you talking about the Noosa area? It needs a documentary too. I've been looking at it tonight actually. Any positive further feedback welcome.
Appreciate your feedback Andrew and comment noted. We have featured a younger person to narrate as this video is shown in schools and we want to appeal to the younger viewer - and hopefully, as well as all of us.
No there is a story behind the class mountain this guy got bad luck for climbing it I’m just saying you should really go ask the owners of this land and then ask them a story about it before you go telling people what it actually is
Hello Hanah I think you refer to The Curse of Mt Beerwah There are some who say it goes like this....... Brocalpin, so the legend says, was the “Turrawan” the Great Man who lived in the mountains (the echo from the hills of Woodford was the voice of Turrawan) . One day when the Turrawan became angry he dug his hand into the ground and hurled a gigantic clod of earth . This was the mountain Beerwah - Bir-Wah (“up to the sky). Brocalpin made Beerwah his secret place and anyone who desecrated his solitude was visited with disaster. There was said to be a curse on anyone who intruded on the mountain. In 1843 the explorer Andrew Petrie, ignoring the warnings of his guide Jimmy, became the first European to climb the mountain and in 1848 lost his sight. The fact that Petrie lost his sight due to a condition called Sandy Blight, and its subsequent poor medical treatment did nothing to dispel the strength of the danger of the curse. Maybe having the curse broken by Petrie, the Turrawan was not satisfied by this so retreated into Tibrogargan where his face, petrified in rock, looks forever out to sea.
Hannah, that is absolute rubbish. If we want to know about Geology we don't consult religious texts. We consult scientific texts. Fairy tales do have their place in the world, but not when it comes to finding out how and why things occurred.
Great educational video , thanks from a tourist from the Netherlands staying in Sunshine Coast👌

Thank you for a great video. I really enjoy learning about the geology of a region. 👍🍺🇦🇺
Thank you. I showed this to my young son. You did a great job.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
glass house mountains been there very beautiful.
They are truly amazing and so much better up close. "Come for a Day ... Come for a Stay"

well done , very informative but try and be more natural.... don't be jumping out of trees... :)

They are volcanic plugs
