Description

This conversation with Dale Leckie is about the roadside geology you will see as you drive from Banff to Jasper as discussed in his book titled "Rocks, Ridges, and Rivers - Geological Wonders of Banff, Yoho, and Jasper National Parks".Have you ever been driving through the mountains and wondered where the best spots to stop were located?  And once you stopped to stare at the beautiful scenery, were you curious what it was you were looking at? Perhaps questions such as how did these particular mountains form, how are they connected to the mountains you previously passed, and how did the features such as waterfalls form popped into your mind?  If you'd like to know the answers to all of these questions, join us for a pretend road trip.  We'll be stopping at Mount Yamnuska, Vermillion Lakes, Moraine Lakes, Burgess Shale, Big Bend, Old Fort Point, Magline Canyon, and Roche Miette.May this exchange serve to expand your geological knowledge on the go.  For more information go to www.stoneconsulting.info.Citation: Leckie, Dale.
