Hike up scenic Carbon Canyon in the Grand Canyon with geology professor Shawn Willsey to investigate the sexy and magnificent rocks exposed along the Butte Fault. Learn how this fault formed, reversed its direction of movement, and made the East Kaibab Monocline. Stick around for the funny ending with my good friend, Darren.
