Donahue and Miller discuss geological locations and phenomena in the mountainous state of Colorado that are largely accessible from paved roads. However, they warn, a few of them are very remote, and accessing them requires advanced planning, current maps in addition to GPS or digital/cellular navigational tools, and a vehicle (and driver) capable of handling the occasional dirt road and snowy or icy conditions. They present the 50 articles in sections on the Front Range and Great Plains, Central Rockies, San Juan Mountains and Rio Grande Rift, and western canyons and plateaus.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. These 50 well-chosen sites--many on every geologist's bucket list--span Colorado's geologic history from 1.7-billion-year-old rocks of the Black Canyon to the constantly shifting landscape of the Great Sand Dunes. The asteroid-produced iridium-enriched layer that marks the end of the dinosaurs is here, as are insects and petrified wood exquisitely preserved at Florissant Fossil Beds, the pure white marble used in the Lincoln Memorial, mysterious Unaweep Canyon that lacks a river, and colorful mounds of silicious sinter at Pagosa Springs. The Great Unconformity, a famous geologic feature tucked away in a few remote locations in other western states, pops up at seven of the featured sites. The late 1800s rush for precious metals produced a network of roads that crisscross the towering mountains, making Colorado's fascinating geology extremely accessible to the average sightseer. With beautiful photographs and informative figures and maps, this guidebook will help you select a destination and head for the door. These 50 well-chosen sites--many on every geologist's bucket list--span Colorado's geologic history from 1.7-billion-year-old rocks of the Black Canyon to the constantly shifting landscape of the Great Sand Dunes.
