Thank you so much for sharing this! I was trying to tough it out as it’s not very long, but had to take a break (and a Dramamine) after my head tried spinning along with one of the maps. I’m so glad I noticed your comment before resuming the video.
The film was top notch wonderful!! Such a wonderful tribute to J Harlen! I did not want the film to end, and the music was superb! Absolutely magnificent!
Not even sure what to say. This is stunning, a really brilliant piece. Thank you to all involved in making and inspiring this. I will watch this many times.
What an amazing presentation! Totally blew away the limited understanding I had of these landforms. The spatial experience of them really brought them to life. Excellent conception of how to present the magnitude of their presence in the landscape. Great work, Eric and Genn!
Thank you so much Glenn and Eric for this amazing piece of work. And of course Thank you to our dear friend Nick for getting all these wonderful people together. I wish Bretz could have seen this.
This is the most amazing group of classmates I have ever witnessed in my life. So very thankful I found you and them back in March of 2020. These productions need to be awarded or rewarded in some appropriate way. These efforts bring tears of joy and appreciation as must all of us Students feel toward their exciting work.
absolutely amazing! something few of us would ever see without their work, and your presentations of NW geology. Though I am neither a geologist nor a scholar, at 77, I thoroughly enjoy watching your presentations. Thanks to you all.
Wow so cool!!! Outstanding effort and collaboration by everyone and Nick you sir are the inspiration to us all. Thank you for A to Z and to everyone who has contributed both on the videos as well as the audience with their comments. Nick outstanding work.
That movie has just convinced me to try one more safari as a bucket list item. From Seattle to Toronto along the front of the Spokane ice sheet, visiting a dozen of the places featured in your lecture series.
OMG, I am overwhelmed thinking of how this amazing group of people hjave collaborated to make history alive and real, for resurrecting J. Harlan Bretz from teh "dustbin of History," and making him relevant to my world of wine and my students in the classroom as well!!! This is why you are on my hero wall, Nck!!! Thank you for the inspiration!!
Congrats to Glenn and Eric!!! Beautiful depiction of what's really happened in that landscape. I grew up in that country and have always wondered what made that place. I think Bretz and now his followers are right on point. Thanks Nick!
What an inspiring gift! Thanks so much to Eric, Glenn, and Nick. I watched it at 100% speed the first time and nearly tossed my cookies! (This kid could never ride a roller coaster!) But a kind comment below pointed out that I could slow it down with the gear icon, which I did. At 25%, Nick sounded like the town drunk, which was somewhat amusing...but 75% was a good speed for the video. Incredible work! I especially like the plaque tribute at the end. I wish JHB could hear all of us cheering him!
This is absolutely astounding. The knowledge that has come from these videos. PLEASE, Nick… can you get permission to slow this down and voice over the main points from each area? Honestly, you could take this film and make it into a three part series with your ability to educate. Your gift to bring this all into a much longer educational piece would be AMAZING. The work done here is absolutely unreal. I will watch this many times over.
Thank you, Eric, and Glenn for making this video-well done! And, thank you, Nick, for setting in motion this whole remarkable and wonderful journey into the world of geology that we all have enjoyed so very much! 😀🤙🏼
Scabland The Movie is incredible and fascinating! And thanks to @guest6423, I am going to continually play it in slow-down mode. Glenn's Pin Location work looked like little cities to me as we flew over Washington. The totality of Glenn's work...Bretz's travels...is simply stunning and gives a sense of scale of the vastness of the glacial flood impacts. Nick, your Downtown Lecture Series on this was fantastic! Thank you. I stayed mostly in the back-ish, and did a quick in-out each evening as I needed to recuperate from the daily field trips, which I couldn't do last year. I'll share this: I worried about seeing the columnar basalt in Drumheller Channels because I can't (yet) do the "20 minute hike." Pre-trip, I googled like crazy, trying to find a spot where I might have a visual chance. I pulled into the Columbia National Wildlife Refuge, and stopped 1/4 mile in, exited the car in the pouring rain because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My first thought: Dammit Nick, why didn't you tell me columns are EVERYWHERE? My second thought: Thanks for not telling me, Nick, so I could discover this for myself. My third thought: Pictures and words cannot do justice to the enormity, vastness, incredible scale of what I'm seeing. Pouring rain notwithstanding, I easily spent 4 hours in awe there. This, my second trip to Downtown Lectures, was the best birthday gift I ever gave to me. Loved Gingko, loved Frenchman, LOVED taking Vantage Rd back to E-burg, and the (b)Russel Sprouts with lemon-garlic sauce at Ellensburg Pasta are still the best ever.
Ice Age Floods and the Scablands. Nick's winter 2023-24 A-Z RU-vid presentations have been the catalyst for so much good work. To my complete joy, this one has proved to be the gift that keeps on giving. I give a heart-felt THANK YOU to everyone involved (too many to name here). This one has been a perfect storm that gathered intense and popular interest in the topic, and talented individuals have come together for an unprecedented push forward for future geological archeologists. I have no idea how Nick might top this one. Much appreciated.
What an amazing video. Thank you Glen and Eric. Thanks to you Nick. You have an amazing and talented group of followers who have contributed so much to your ice age A to Z series.
Well done to everyone involved! I'm honored to get to learn from you folks., kids. Nick, my wife and I have enjoyed learning from you on this platform. Thank you
Wow Glenn and Eric! Thank you! If you can't easily get to these special places in real life, or just want to be reminded of them, this is a terrific way to see 'hem. So appreciate this project.
GREAT work! you are blazing a trail with Google Earth in the spirit of J.H.Bretz. If I may, slow the caption clips some or slow scrolling. The fast pace of flying around the Earth was AWESOME. Thanks for your kind sharing.
What a geological treasure. If this does not get people interested in earth sciences and the power of nature, nothing else will. Inspiration rewarded: thank you Nick!
Remarkable, Glenn and Eric! Kudos to you both. Beautiful work. I slowed it down to catch all the wonderful Bretz words. Thank you from the Zentner community!
Nick, you have created such a wonderful community that works together very creatively. The least of it is the educational experience we all get. Thanks so very much
Stunning! Absolutely stunning. Am just a person from Australia who has loved your work Nick, and that of those you have introduced, for a few years now. Thank You ALL so much. jj
I wish we had access to similar insights to geology in South Africa, What an amazing summary of the Scabland geology, thanks to all for putting it together!!
I think this movie is awe inspiring. Have listened to the summer A-Z session, I could not stop the tears in my eyes as I watched. My biggest wish is that a new edit, with Nick narrating Bretz' notes, is made. Bravo.
Most excellent Mr. Nick on the Rocks! Very well done. Looks like I’ll be exploring for the rest of my lifetime and being amazed at every turn while i enjoy exploring here in my home, the PNW and the Columbia River Gorge.
