  • This video shows the geologic evolution of Colorado National Monument, near Grand Junction, CO, and has been displayed in the Visitor's Center since 2005. The video shows animations and pictures of the geologic evolution of the Monument from the Pennsylvanian (300 millions years ago) to the Present.
    Animation by Ryan Crow, Paul Weimer, John Roesink, Jay Austin, William Hood, and Laurie Lamar.

    I miss home 😢 if I could give back my jar of dirt I would. I regret following the Indian legend. Take Soil from the cliffs, soil from the valley, and soil from the banks. Or you'll always come back to the Grand valley. I wanted out so bad and now can't seem to find my way home again😢😢😢😢

      Grand Junction and Fruita are shitholes. Nothing but gangs and druggie loosers.

      I knew of the Indian legend when I moved into GJ. 1995. I left the Grand Valley in 2013, w/ no jar of dirt, but I felt I had plenty caked onto my 4X4, vowing to never return. Three times before I had tried to move outa the area w/ no dirt. Now I'm happy and home on the Front Range.

    Nah, it was all deposited and eroded in a flood. One single flood. Did all that. Maybe a... big hurricane, too, for the windy erosion bits. Yup, that's what I'm going with.

    In the interest of spreading general knowledge of geology, I am sure that Univ of Colo. would be unhappy to find that Google and You Tube efforts to apply DRM to all videos would be counter productive. Video download apps that are still available fail to download videos, regardless of ownership or mission because of the business model at Google and You Tube. I would urge educators to pull their videos from You Tube.

    Geologists only think and talk about periods of millions of years. They have different methods for determining the age of rock layers. However, there is one small problem. Ancient books tell us that a cycle of natural disasters threatens the earth and all living things. The cause of this cycle of disasters is a ninth planet in our solar system orbiting the sun in an eccentric orbit. Features of the natural disaster include a massive tidal wave, higher than the highest mountain, flooding, storms, rain, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and a fiery asteroid bombardment. That planet is surrounded by a gigantic twisting cloud of dust and meteorites. That cloud obscures the atmosphere, pollutes the water and covers the whole planet Earth with that dust. At the end of the crossing of this planet 9, the earth is covered with a horizontal layer of wet mud, a mixture of sand, clay, lime, fossils of sea and land animals, shells and the deposit of that dust cloud and asteroids. So in every layer on our planet we will find material of the same antiquity, perhaps many millions of years old: the deposit of extraterrestrial clay and meteorites. Even the youngest, topmost earth layer, which is less than 6,000 years old, also includes the same very old deposit. If you don't know about this cycle, you have no idea how our history has evolved. To learn much more about planet 9, the recurring flood cycle and its timeline, the re-creation of civilizations and ancient high technology, read the e-book: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". It can be read on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: invisible nibiru 9
