Put 14000 miles over 9 weeks on 97 last summer hauling apples during harvest, looked at these formations twice a day everyday. Since I was familiar with Nick's work and teachings, I always wanted him to be in the passenger seat so I could ask him about the terraces. I like to prospect for gold deposits where no one else would look for pay dirt, which is why I'm so intrigued. Absolutely love this stuff. Thanks Nick, looking forward to attending a pop up soon.
We use to live on J rd. on the wahluke slope east of Mattawa. A geologist from Hanford recorded small earthquakes in a gravel pit on the south end of J rd.
Forgive me, but you are getting good at this. You are getting better with the live discussion, but most importantly, you retain your true self. And then you convey your true self. Never lose that, because you are a true educator.
The more one sees, the more one thinks, the more ones thinks, the more one questions, the more one questions, the more we get answers. Great POP UP, thank you sir.
Total distance: 1.19 km (3,902.88 ft) Wallula Gap min distance & total distance: 1.52 km (4,975.33 ft) for the Sentinel Gap. From Victoria BC on Vancouver Island just south of Jerome Lesemann in Nanaimo, BC. I would love to drive down to one of your pop ups with Jerome sometime in the future. Absolutely love your lectures. So happy to have found you doing field videos and not just the calk board sessions. Bing watching this weekend. (02 June 2022. I'm using Google maps 3D to follow along.
Had to send my computer to the geek squad to fix a problem. Just now getting caught up w/ TH-cam programs. Thought about just skipping some of them but now I'm glad I didn't skip yours.
Still listening to the lecture for ringtone sized classic comments... love you... more of a statement really... driving instructions... French fries... tootsie rolls... explaining air gap....and so on.... what a rabbit hole of neat sound bites.
The American natives would have some folktales of an eruption 7,700 years ago as all the volcanic ash would have had a bid impact and would have been mysterious and frightening for humans far from the actual volcano.
A great teacher brings wonder first , evidence/observations next, the rigor of the scientific method later, and questions last. However, a few exceptional teachers also bring hope, enthusiasm and the spirit of life. Nick is an exceptional teacher.
My adventure into geology did not start with Prof. Nick, but my love for this science has been now been greatly enhanced my desire to follow this great teacher. There was only one other college professor who excited my love for this educational endeavor. But that was many years ago, and it was sidetracked by a place called Viet Nam. If only …….
War has side tracked too many! Quite a few don’t get to finish their education for life and unfortunately death. I have recently, a few years ago, Afghanistan, lost two of my best friends. I miss them so much. I’m glad you came back to your family and friends. Keep strong, and thank you for your service.
Got pulled into watching Nick again... too bad I can't do a Nick Zentner ringtone yet... a classic Nickism in full shouting sound.... what a great idea. Listen to this lecture... 15 second ringtones... what a gold mine. What would you pick for one? ... picture going to a rock hammer store and hearing.... shouting Nickism ringtones going off all around you then your ringtone exposes your interest.
Love this Classroom! What a great turn out! Awesome presentation and a really a boat load of information! Love the progression of the layers building up to then the Uplift and it makes a mental timeline up to the time of the Ice Age floods which is what got me hooked many years ago. I also have been fascinated by the layers uplifted at sharp angles in the Columbia Gorge and that caught my attention as pre teen 60 years ago. Look forward to your next installment Nick. Applause Applause!
Regarding the red lava on Saddle Mountain. A few miles southeast of Royal City, WA is Red Rock Coulee. From there, rock is mined, ground down and used to make red brick. I am afraid that is all I know, but Nick's two videos on red laval has created an interest in researching more. County: Grant County Latitude 46.8471° or 46° 50' 50" north Longitude -119.5867° or 119° 35' 12" west elevation 545 feet.
Nick, you asked about comparing the width of the gaps... Sentinel and Wallula. I had originally gotten my impression of the gap difference in the relief map on the wall of Discovery Hall earlier in the day, and obviously hadn't taken measurements from that, but I did go to Google Earth just now and make the best measurements I could... again, eyeballing it is a long way from survey equipment, but the numbers I got were interesting. Wallula Gap at 20 meters above current water level = 1266 meters across. Wallula Gap at 200 meters elev. = 1560 meters across Sentinel Gap at 20 meters above current water level = 1559 meters across (293 meters wider than Wallula Gap) Sentinel Gap at 200 meters elev. = 1658 meters across (98 meters wider than Wallula Gap) The gap difference becomes insignificant at 300 meters or higher, but because the river bed just above the current water level is so much wider, Sentinel Gap can handle much larger quantities of water at those high water levels. That is a substantial size difference and has big implications for volume and flow. As an ex-river guide and whitewater kayaker, I'm a fan of hydrology
I needed a journey back to 11.8 million years ago to a time before there were humans or chimpanzee and before we had a thought or aspiration. Because we have sure screwed it up in the present. Thanks Professor.
Nick, I have a question. It might seem ridiculous, however I have never been to the Northwest. How come there are no trees, there?! Something tells me that you'll know. 🙃
It was great meeting Nick and seeing him speak in person while I have been in town. He was very generous with his time and talked to anyone he could. Great stuff, classic guy. Got a couple more days left here and have enjoyed every minute of it. Mahalo Nick!
I just barely started brother, and I thank you Nick for sharing your gig which you are really good at, with all of us far flung folks who just can't go see you in person. I am so grateful to not only see you and hear your cool lectures, but for you to include us Internet folks in the vibe. It is so meaningful brother
I'm really enjoying that these pop-up events now more than ever as they have evolved into field trips discussing more than just the ice age floods and the CRB. Discussing the older geology and the fault history is giving us a comprehensive description of all of the geological features still visible and at work in the area. Thanks, Nick!
I do too. Now, if only I could make it out here for one of these things! I've twice wanted to go now, and some appointment or engagement has gotten in the way each time and there wasn't enough time to drive out there to make one of these. It's upsetting because I only live in Vancouver, it's just a few hours away -- but it hasn't worked out yet and I'm starting to get a little impatient. I can see it happening again depending on when Nick decides to do one of these things, because I've still got medical appointments and shows/sports events involving my grandkids, stuff I've had on the schedule for weeks; and so somehow there always seems to be a conflict. Yesterday was no exception. GAAAHHHHHH!!
@@briane173 Such is life Brian...Grab the grandkids or just Go for the Gusto and pull the trigger....I think when it happens you will realize the delay was worth it and all that fretting was for nothing. Some times the thing really in our way is staring us in the Mirror!
@@faithijn8338 Yeah I keep hearing that -- but I've also gotta take care of myself healthwise or the rest is academic. Age is starting to creep up on me. I'm keeping the calendar as clear as possible and just _praying_ that when Nick announces the next one I'll be able to pull chocks and get over there pronto. But I'm not gonna miss my grandson's performance in _High School Musical;_ he's the lead actor this time and I can't wait to see how he does.
Nick @~24min, since you are "recording" not "streaming" I think you are able to zoom into the left side layers for the home crowd. Thank you for your dedication!
Just got done watching 'Fun Sized Columns at Babcock Bench'.... again too... got a new emoji creation app... screenshots of the video would make excellent backgrounds.... I wonder if I can make a Nick Zentner Avatar... to make a Nick Zentner emoji dancing ring tones... this video has potential for having the program generate an emoji avatar from a screenshot... classic Nick Zentner attire is easy to build... hopefully an mp4 dancing Nick Zentner emoji will show up in a tweet at Nick to see...
The Saddle Mountains Fault and the dramatic young “break in slope“ raises in my mind the question about the Front Range west of Denver. Seems like this might be the poster child for “break in slope“. Does this go with a young low-angle fault? I don’t think so, but what else causes dramatic “break in slope“?
A very interesting video, again ! I really like the format, the access to a large landscape, the explanation of what happened through time, the Q & A... I could not be there, I live in France, I could not watch it live, it was a bit too late for me. The replay has its advantages though : you can stop the video and zoom to see the famous layers. Thank you Nick, for everything you offer us.
Great job! Good crowd, too! I wanted to get by the Saddle Mts. but ran out of time. It's a must see the next time I'm out there. Safety suggestion: I think you should warn everyone before they break up to check for ticks, too.
What a great pop up. Thank you professor! I just wished I wasn’t recovering from surgery, I would have been there. Keep up the good work! Geology rocks!
Another outstanding video and discussion. One of these days I’m making it to one of these Pop-Ups. Was in Las Vegas driving back to Washington but made a detour thru The Grand Canyon today and driving thru The Grand Tetons tomorrow, then Yellowstone the next day.
Thank you Nick, can’t wait to join you in the field soon. I get so much out of your videos and can’t imagine what it would be like to soak up that knowledge in person with all the examples around. Thank you again for the knowledgeable entertainment.

Thank you Nick for sharing the pop really enjoyed this loved the Saddle Mountain Fault surprise and the Bruneau Jarbidge ash. Its great now the Vantage area is very familiar to us. Rough estimate on ground elevation from side to side on google maps shows Sentinel Gap 1.42km Wallula Gap 1.30km. Nhi says hi, take care
I learned a lot today! Thanks, Nick. It gets confusing at times with all of the ages and millions of years, but I felt pretty clear today about what you were sharing. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to your next pop up lecture.
It was a great lecture in an area we've visited so many times, especially recently following Nick's other series - thanks, Nick, for a great evening that also helped us better understand our trip today to the Drumheller Channels, Lind Coulee, and Washtucna Coulee, finishing up the day heading through the scablands near Sprague and home to NE Washington.
Lots of geology going on at that location. Im glad you all figured it out and thanks to you Nick for putting it all together and teaching us it. What cool stuff there is to learn out there from the rocks.
Is the 30 feet of ash layer in the Saddle Mountains like the Lake Effect Ash (not snow but ash) from Idaho?? I mean, is it why the ash layer, say, twice or so thicker than it should be?? That was an awesome session, I felt like I was actually time traveling back from 16ma to 16000 years ago in one talk in 360 view!!😃💛💫
@@garypaull9382 I think I got that, but thank you for writing those words out, now I can search! My question was, is the 30 feet of ash thicker than should be? If it is, is it because of something like a Lake Effect around that area?? Like the Lake Effect Snow, which around a lake or the ground shape where dips down like that, snow tends to deposit twice as thick?? I don't know..., Gene was commenting so, I'm just writing down.😆
Gah. I made it by on my horse but not enough time to make it back to watch. Another day the planets will align. Glad I could show you the rocks I found along the way. Thank you - Rachel miller
@@KenakaElric Ok thanks! I'm sure I saw (maybe) a still pic of Nick onsite with a horse and rider. Someone else said there was video of the rocks you brought. But I guess not.
Rabbit holes on how to do something... 'gaming ' video recording can capture sounds in mp4 and can be converted to mp3 sound files... a 15 second or less is the size of the mp4 dance emoji ringtone videos... build the screenshot capture emoji... create the outfit... use a screenshot to capture a background... create emoji dance mp4... edit the emoji mp4 with the mp3 sound track and create the shouting Nickism ringtone with the dancing emoji Nick Zentner.... thinking outloud in comments to an audience that can probably puzzle out the how to do it...
wow this was very fun, I learned a lot and it made sense because of the way you described it happening. thank you for that. Wow what a crowd of loyal followers you have. they are willing to get up and come to your presentations . thats awesome. and impressive at the same time. They also ask really great questions so some of them have been studying Geology a while i surmise. utterly fascinating.
Thank you. Although "Short lived" The lake created by the Saddle Mountains was ~700' deep. I find that amazing. Would the breach of that earthen dam be considered part of the Ice Age Floods?
Thanks Nick wish I could have made this trip.. Say have you ever thought of making a cd set of some of your video's? I want to record (if I can) some of your video's to take this summer on my "last great adventure" around Washington Your videos will be such a help to me to understand all I see. Also glad to see so many of my generation out there to hear your lecture.. Keep it up Nick.. you are teaching us great things and I hope to pass it on to my grand kids..

Richard I second your sentiment how fantastic is this study
Very good Mr. Zetner.. I am exited to go to our Eagle Lakes property and check for evidence of all the new questions you brought forward.
Forgive me, but you are getting good at this. You are getting better with the live discussion, but most importantly, you retain your true self. And then you convey your true self. Never lose that, because you are a true educator.
Yeah, great to watch, thoroughly entertaining, and I'm on the other side of the planet. Blue Mountains west of Sydney.

Beverly Bridge is The Chicago, Milwaukee, St.Pail and Pacific Railroad company. Built 1909, abandoned March 1980.
Take home point: Doinking increases erosion. Thanks Nick.

I bet you get to see some of the most beautiful scenery in America.
Lemme get this right. Faults on both sides of present valley?
Dang I'mma have to do some homework tomorrow now.
But Thanks anyway Nick 👍
If you're talking about the Saddle Mountains Fault, it's a single fault that is crossed by the Columbia R. at Sentinel Gap.
I find the east side way more interesting than the west. Over here its mainly just glacial and mudflow deposits or very young alluvial soils.
Toba blew 70,000 years ago, wiped out the sun for many years.
love your presentations. I'm a ceramic artist so use natural materials. Thank yo so much.
What a great pop up. Thank you professor! I just wished I wasn’t recovering from surgery, I would have been there. Keep up the good work! Geology rocks!

Super cool. Realy enjoyed the camera swivel work.
Sentinel Gap is very roughly about 1000 feet, or 25% wider than Walulla Gap depending on where you strike your line.
Would love to see a pop-up geology event on the westside of the state at some point. We can pay your fule costs! :)
5x5, GOOD Evening from Sulphur, OK
Thank you Nick, can’t wait to join you in the field soon. I get so much out of your videos and can’t imagine what it would be like to soak up that knowledge in person with all the examples around. Thank you again for the knowledgeable entertainment.
Was a fantastic pop-up event mate. Thoroughly enjoyed it 👌. Keep the great work coming. 😉
All you need is a Greek choir……
Maybe that’s the audience 🤔
Thank you Nick love the dramatic scene and info.
Your energy is infectious and the info too. An amazing picture indeed!
I hope that there will be more work done on this area. Great lecture Nick
The bike boys got back too early for the Popup, but it was fun to catch a celebrity cameo of Nicky Z at Vinman’s. Thanks for stopping to say hi.

The energy of live gatherings is the best!! I hope to get to the next one. This is about an area I don't know well, so really love your talk.
Orange means high temperature deposition. It also does that in fireplaces in adobe houses.

'gaming ' video recording can capture sounds in mp4 and can be converted to mp3 sound files... a 15 second or less is the size of the mp4 dance emoji ringtone videos... build the screenshot capture emoji... create the outfit... use a screenshot to capture a background... create emoji dance mp4... edit the emoji mp4 with the mp3 sound track and create the shouting Nickism ringtone with the dancing emoji Nick Zentner.... thinking outloud in comments to an audience that can probably puzzle out the how to do it...
Noraly crossed over into Mexico on her way to Alaska. Be sure to let us know if you two have a video!!🏍🏍
wow this was very fun, I learned a lot and it made sense because of the way you described it happening. thank you for that. Wow what a crowd of loyal followers you have. they are willing to get up and come to your presentations . thats awesome. and impressive at the same time. They also ask really great questions so some of them have been studying Geology a while i surmise. utterly fascinating.
Oldest feature in view? How many people said, "Nick"?

What a great day. Thanks for the perfect recording.
Great pop-up!
Very informative, even for a Geologist.
If one side goes up, then the other side usually goes down, or both sides can go up at different rates.
How do we find out Nick's next pop up event? I am not seeing anything on the channel about where he announces the next one.
Awww--missed the premiere and the live chat. We'll have to watch it after dinner tonight! :)
Thank you. Although "Short lived" The lake created by the Saddle Mountains was ~700' deep. I find that amazing. Would the breach of that earthen dam be considered part of the Ice Age Floods?
Hi Everyone!!
Nick could talk FOREVER if we let him. ;) Thanks Nick
Thanks Nick wish I could have made this trip.. Say have you ever thought of making a cd set of some of your video's? I want to record (if I can) some of your video's to take this summer on my "last great adventure" around Washington Your videos will be such a help to me to understand all I see. Also glad to see so many of my generation out there to hear your lecture.. Keep it up Nick.. you are teaching us great things and I hope to pass it on to my grand kids..
300 Layer could mean 300 or much fewer Pulsed Expansion of the Earth that reopen vertical fractures in the Earth East of your location.
