    I flew over this area in an Air France jet which had Google Earth on the TV monitors. Perfectly clear day, 100 mile visibility. I could watch from my window while zooming to earth with Google Earth. Truly amazing modern day ability. Made me want to know much more about what brought about these land forms. Now thanks to you I've completed the picture of what I was seeing and learned so very much about the geology of Eastern North America. Great presentation!

    Thank you, Mike!!! The photos were fantastic. The Geology lesson amazing. I live in New Hampshire and now have a much greater appreciation of this whole area. Loved the maps. My regards to your wife who I'm sure enjoyed this whole time with you. Again, thank you very much!!

    Great presentation Mike. Crazy coincidence, I worked in the Electronics lab at CRD and remember you from your years there although I don't think we ever met per se. I started out with Don Puckette's group. Now, in retirement I live in Nova Scotia and as I continue to enjoy learning I've been exploring the geology of the area and happened on this video. I really enjoyed your video both for geology and your awesome pictures and experiences in this area. All the best to you and your family and I hope you're continuing to enjoy your passions.

    A great adventure and amazing experience where geology is seen as it is and as it shaped culture... and then this is where geology is so "exposed"... as if we were out in Arizona or Nevada... and.. I remember the 70s... it was OUR time... So many of us wanted to do something interesting, different... breaking the paradigm... You did just that... Bravo

    I went down the entire South Fork of the Flathead River by Grumman canoe to Hungry Horse and we never took a gun, either. Met Mr. Bear at Big Salmon Lake, but he was casual.

    I learned a great deal about rope climbing at Colorado College from experiences in the Garden of the Gods. But, when I got down to the quick, I sure thought climbing any mountain for any reason other than survival was dumb. Maybe fishing and hunting would be a driver, too.

    Interesting. I "boated" off the coast of NF in the 80s drilling on a semi submersible a couple hundred Km east. Loved the country, but not an igneous/metamorphic fan. Still, I was interested in that geology (I'm a geologist). Not much of that in your talk but impressive pics.

      Standing at McDonald's Ranch in Oregon, a petrified wood collecting site, as I looked off into the distance and seeing 7 different Cascade Range volcanoes was a highlight in my life. The pacific northwest is amazing on so many levels from what is there to the ongoing processes to the geological history of this region.

    Not much talk of Labrador geology, more talk of a trekking trip about Labrador, Labrador has some of the youngest rock also too you know, in the Kiapokok domain and Makkovik domain below the Nain province domain... anyway half of Labradors geology completely ignored. Kiapokok and Makkovik domain shaped like 2 pizza slices too with similar geology extended in Greenland. A bit disappointed but good video. Thumbs up
