There's a park somewhere in the hills on the outskirts of Cincinnati with some trails in the surrounding hills and exposed outcroppings of rocks, many loaded with fossils. When I was walking around the park area I tripped on something and looked down and dug up one of those golf ball sized clams that are common in that area. Quite a find when you're a kid.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for this video! It’s everything I wanted to know about the geology of my hone state, all rolled up into one tidy video! I guess I shouldn’t everything, but there’s enough info in here to help me on my way to more Ohio geology knowledge! Thanks again from here in northeastern Ohio! 🙏
They keep forgetting places like black hand gorge. The geology there is awesome. I been studying geology and collecting rocks and minerals for over 30 years. Hocking hills is beautiful...I agree...but ohio has other great places too. Right by ohio caverns is one of the most unique caverns called zane caverns. Near columbus there is olintangey caverns as well. Middle bass island has perry's cave but also has the worlds largest celestite geode. This geode is called crystal cave.
A 250ft Sandstone bolder was dropped off in the middle of Lancaster. It was turned into a local park and you can climb to the top of Mt. Pleasant. The Local Natives called it Standing Stone. It has a great view of Lancaster & distant Columbus.
My grandfather had a small lake built in north east Ohio on the farm in the 1960's and I would find seashell fossil imprints in the rocks along the shore.
On my grandparents farm south of Camden Oh. after a heavy rain, there would be lots of "petrified cow horns" washed out where the driveway went up a hill side.
Very informative video! This is a major gap in my overall education so thanks for sharing with us. How about a video on the ancient Teays River that once flowed through the Buckeye State?
Just east of Navarre along S.R. 212 before getting to Bolivar, there are some huge magnificent boulders which designate the end moraine of the last glacier.
There are some nice rock formations a few miles south of Beach City, Ohio. There are two falls down there coming from streams from ancient morraines formed by glaciers eons ago.
I grew up in Hocking hills Ohio Ash cave Rock House Old Man's cave cedar falls and my favorite Tar hollow State Park I still live there and go almost every weekend. And not to mention they're the best roads to take your Miata Down or any other fun car.
Check out black hand gorge in taboso Ohio in licking county it's definitely one of my favorite spots to go and it has everything you need to see waterfalls to caves I grew up around that area but my children lives around bellefontaine Ohio I will definitely put that on my places to go list.
There's more cool places other than Hocking hills/Ash cave Old Man's cave cedar falls rock house and everything else in Hocking hills.... There's a place called edge of Appalachia close to Peebles Ohio and they have awesome cliffs and fossils everywhere. And another place is Caesars Creek they have some of the coolest fossils ever and a huge field that's like 10 football fields put together where a glacier went through you can find fossils everywhere.
Historians... check out the book I republished entitled, Barbara: A Romance of the Sandusky River Valley and a Tale of the War of 1812 and 1813. It and northwest Ohio history are available at bluebankspub.com. I worked very hard to put Barbara back in print because it is so freakin' good. Thank you. Jay from Old Fort.
Examples and explanations for concretions would have been suitable for this presentation. Northern Franklin/southern Delaware counties have deep shale cuts which produce giant concretions.
@@TinaHyde Highbanks Park in Delaware and many Olentangy River tributaries south of the park expose shale and many sizes and shapes of concretions. Almost any creek that feeds into the Olentangy river from the East will cut into the shale and expose concretions. This continues along the Scioto river as well, south of Columbus....happy hunting.
This was an excellent top notch video: there was much info presented in clear, easy to understand language. The editing was first rate to keep the flow of the info in a fascinating way. Good job to the producers!
24:10 I got dinosaur bones in my field!😂 I thought he'd bring in a cow bone or a horse bone😂😂😂 My jaw just dropped cause it aint' no cow bone horse bone it's a mastadon teeth🤣🤣 ... ... I don't think we're gonna find the skull cause I think that was destroyed by the plow😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
At the dawn of the VCR age we got to watch shows in school about Ohio natural history. I was always fascinated by them. To this day, at 53, I still drive around looking for glacial moraines. I wonder: Do kids still get to watch this kind of thing in school? I know it goes against "The Narrative" that there was no history before 1609. I'm genuinely curious, though - not just being political....(OK I'm kinda being political, but the question stands.)
I live just 27 miles north of Ohio. I've been to Cave City in Kentucky which was really cool but I have never heard of the caves in Ohio. Planning on going to Serpents Mound soon with my kids. It you don't mind can you tell me are there caves near there or something interesting. We're into outdoors/nature stuff.
@@tashacherry1480 actually seven caves is not real far from serpent mound if you take Route 50 from Hillsboro going towards a town called RainsBoro and then Bainbridge before you get to Bainbridge on the right is a road leads to seven cage it’s not open to the public but you can still go through there and see the amazing scenery it is close to paint Creek Reservoir but on the other side of 50 it is truly awesome if you walk around the grounds.
Yeah, why? I think because science is compelling....even to them, but they can't accept changing their opinion....so they try to tear down other people.
@@bradweir6993 I thought it was his dad....oh maybe dad wore sandals too.....but geez, imagine making a star while wearing sandals....that's harder than frying chicken in the nude!
What is the humongoloid? I just learning the english and must be useing wrong? It means a old person? or something is old? Yes? I did not find in books and spend long time to use word right. It cause much embarrassing. Please, will help me?
How do I get a hold of any of you geologists that make these videos I would really like to pick your brain about the geology of Ohio State I'm from Ohio trying to learn more about if you care.lol
Its a great day to be alive by Travis Tritt. I just want to cry but its happy tears. I would love to take my kids to Hocking Hills and have Rick teach us! Whats crazy is I can sit there, listen to him but not hear the words he is speaking. Ppl want scientific explanation and thats great but I go to lala land with it. So majestic. All for the glory of love (God). Living through the ghost by Shinedown.
I also know where prehistory can be found ,I. The form of gaint bones of a man like creature!!! I can take you there just say when folks just say when!!!
I'd love too my dad found ancient fire pits around brookville lake indiana and tools but the outer layer crumbles when you touch it I found a perfect double blade curved opposite ways behind an ancient waterfall the curtain crumbled and the limestone showed through I never would believe but it happened to me
The information given in the body of this video suggests it was produced for high schoolers but the host’s demeanor is well below that. It’s like he’s talking to 10 year olds.
Completly Proves Al Gore deserved the Nobel Peace Prize for proving the world is not flat & that the world is warming up!!! Well done Al Gore sir!!! Mother Teresa & I are proud of your genius contribution to humanity.
I know of a missing link in the education of geologists. When we look at the many horizontal layers that we find throughout our planet, we clearly see the effect of a repeating cataclysm. These disasters are mentioned in ancient books like the Mahabharata of India and the Popol Vuh of the Mayans and others. They tell us about a cycle of seven disasters that separate the eras from the world. Certainly, regularly recurring global disasters cannot be caused by asteroid impacts or volcanic eruptions. The only possible cause is another celestial body, a planet, orbiting our sun in an eccentric orbit. Then it is close to the sun for a short period and after the crossing at a very high speed it disappears into the universe for a long time. Planet 9 exists, but it seems invisible. These disasters cause a huge tidal wave of seawater that washes over land "above the highest mountains." At the end it covers the earth with a layer of mud, a mixture of sand, clay, lime, fossils of marine and terrestrial animals, gravel and meteorites. They also create a cycle of civilizations. To learn much more about the recurring flood cycle and its chronology, 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
How do you distinguish ice age glacial erosion from a worldwide flood eroding the land as the water drains rapidly away? How do you distinguish glacially scooped rocks from asteroid impact splashing?
A glacier, acting like a bulldozer, will produce moraines. A moraine is the rock and dirt deposit that the glacier will push up as it moves forward. A flood will cut and deposit the dirt and rocks in a different manner. An asteroid will deposit debris in a wide, scattered way. The glacial moraines will plow the earth into an organized U shaped fashion.
Easy to distinguish between all those. Simply look at the astounding amount of evidence compiled by thousands of different people. None of this was proven by one person with a simple opinion.
For that you would need a thing you probably don’t believe in. Science. Science based on evidence. You’re probably not happy here , maybe you should move on.
@@mikehorton6195 I believe real science. Not nonsense that is falsely called science, when all you have is hypothesis with zero demonstrable science to back it up. Perhaps you could point out some actual science to confirm your statements, something more than a bare pronouncement with no evidence to support it.
4400 years of sediment load in all river deltas of the world! This was the first time it had rained! No millions of years, you can only get a fossil if it’s covered up rapidly in the flood.
I figured out where my parochial school teachers found their materials. Bahahaha then they tried to push creationism after showing us these videos. What a joke creationism is.
Good video...i do want to say I think it’s funny that scientists state things as fact that happened “millions of years ago” that yea you can make a guess but guess isn’t fact and your crazy if you don’t believe it lol
I really enjoyed this video.. best one I've seen amonst many....surely you haters could look better on camera, would love to see you do this...isn't as easy as it looks...everyones a critic...until they do it themselves...until you carry the bucket of water and don't spill one drop, only then will you understand...
You are doing so great oh, you are courteous you were accepted to courtesy and then you had to go and add the million years thing that you have no idea what you're talkin about.
Stating the age of the earth is 10000 years old is an opinion that has no evidence behind it. Stating the earth is 4.5 billion years old has a mountain of evidence compiled by thousands of different scientists. You know, the scientist that used chemistry create your medications, or develop your phone or computer you use. Your science created car, using fuels made by scientist. Those people.
