The beautiful stratified rocks of the Colorado Plateau tell a fascinating story of our ever-evolving environment. Imagine landscapes near sea level with tropical, shallow seas; sandy windblown deserts; and an Amazon-scale river system that reached as far as the Appalachian Mountains.
Join geologists and authors Ron Blakey & Wayne Ranney as they take you on an incredible journey through time on the Colorado Plateau where these long lost scenes come to life in a series of dynamic and newly created paleogeographic maps from the new book published by the Grand Canyon Association

Fantastic !
My …
Fantastic !
My third time viewing the series and it keeps getting better… more insightful. Helpings me deepen my connection with this landscape I have come to love.
This series > and what it shows us about the development of our continent (and Earth in general) ~ should be getting viewed by millions.
No wonder society is in such a tail spin, ~
facade & daydreams over substance.
> Blakey & Ranney please keep working on your animated CD, that will surly get your story & maps viral.
