They are hadrosaurs, ceratopsians and I am not sure what type of theropod.

@@earthandtime5817 Hadrosaurus.... Edmontosaurus Regalis Edmontosaurus Annacttens hahaha

@@earthandtime5817 Saurolophus is a personal favorite of mine

I hope to make it to Australia someday. Definitely a must go place for me.

@@earthandtime5817 the Southern Continent is old ancient and rich 😀

@@earthandtime5817 southern suns on summer days in Australia are the vibe haha

Putting it on my list. Great to hear from you.

@@earthandtime5817 went there for a week late Sep to early October 2010 ... was only 19 at that time haha

Absolutely. It is a truly amazing place! Have you been?

@@pennyandersen8254 thank you. One of my favorites!

Thank you so much. I am happy you enjoyed it. I love that area. Absolutely beautiful. Appreciate the kind words and excited to hear your thoughts about the Gap next time you go out!

Glad you enjoyed it the video and thanks for the kind words. Have fun exploring!

@@elmonixon4392 great suggestion. I appreciate that. As a structural geologist, we are notorious for using our hands and fingers to point out and explain observations. I really like the suggestion. Thank you! And thanks for the kind words.

Thanks for the tip! I appreciate that. The fault dips towards the west. I will remember to add the cardinal directions. I always appreciate constructive feedback. 😀

Thanks so much for sharing your story. I would love to visit that location if anyone can tell us where it is? I also visited the hotel they stayed at in the Decatur, Texas area. It was fascinating.

Thanks for the question. I don’t think there is a caldera in that area. There are some south and wests of there. I will do some research and get back to you. Appreciate you asking and the comment.

@@earthandtime5817 Awesome! I hope you figure it out because all I have is my imagination to go on

@@frictionhitch that is how all the great observations and ideas start 😀. I will keep you posted.

Thank you! Cheers! It was so nice to visit and explore. Hope you are doing well.

They are amazing. Riding a bike through the gap would be a cool experience. Thank you for sharing.

You are welcome. I am glad you enjoyed it. I love the National Parks in Utah. It is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing and hope all is well.

Thank you for the kind words. The scenery is stunning and the geology is cool also 😉.

Great question. I don’t think so, but you can check the local laws about collecting. Thanks for asking.

@@earthandtime5817 💋

Thanks so much for sharing. I appreciate it and your kind words. I love the NYC Natural History museum. Been years since I have been there and I hope to go back sometime in the next year.

Would love to see the soon pictures sometime also. Nothing better than childhood drawings of creatures. Thanks Rik!

@@earthandtime5817 you are very welcome 🤗

Ha. Thanks for putting a smile on my face. Love the geology jokes!

AHAHAHA THE HANGING WALL AND THE FOOTWALL HAHAHAHA

Ah Grabens and Horsts

And that of a Reverse Fault or a Transverse or Splay Fault???😊😊😊

It is such a fascinating place. Thanks for sharing.

I saw a cave but was not able to go in. It was closed off. Thanks for the question. I will look for the cave and water next time I am there.

It is unusual. The block rose slow enough that the river was able to cut through. Thanks for the comment and I agree.

Thank you John. I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed it

Ha. This is my first all emoji comment. Thanks.

Thank you.

Thanks. Loving the emojis.

@@spikenomoon thank you for sharing. Sounds like fascinating geology. I have never gone. It is on my list!

I am so excited you enjoyed the video and that you can share the info (I have a kid I like to drive crazy with info as well). Thank you for the comment and sharing.

I am excited to hear your feedback once you get through field camp. Is your field camp going to be in Utah? Are you going to Parowan Gap? Thank you for sharing and the comment.

Thanks for the compliment on the shirt. My parents made that for me for Christmas. I love it and eventually will make some for those interested. Also thanks for your thoughts on what is historical versus vandalism. It is a tough one. Also ask what is art versus vandalism at some of the sites I have visited (thinking about my trip to Hawaii to look at the coastal batteries that were turned into palettes for local street artists).

@@earthandtime5817 If you do a T-shirt, I will buy one. 🙂

@@searchingforhistory you will get one of the first ones when I do! Thank you.

It is an amazing place. Thanks for the comment. Appreciate you.

Hope you make it. It is a fascinating place. Thanks for the comment.

@@earthandtime5817 What you called a solar calendar, I thought was either a super nova or comet representation. I was there about 20 years ago, looking forward to going back. Thanks for all the info!!

Thank you. So happy you enjoyed the video. I have been to Oregon. I love Silver Leaf Falls State Park. I have been to Idaho but not Craters of the moon. On my list. Thank you.

Ha. Congrats on first. Panning would be fun. Not to much gold in this area unfortunately. Thanks for the comment. Appreciate it.

Glad you enjoyed it! It is such a beautiful and amazing place. And thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing. When I was working there we worked with the rangers and mapped out some of the tunnels. Was really interesting and a bit scary at times.

You are welcome. Thank you for the comment and I am happy you enjoyed.

That is a great question. I love the giant sloths. I will have to make that suggestion next time I am there. Thanks so much for leaving the comment.

@@earthandtime5817 Thank You Your always fun and knowledgeable I am glad to have been able to Help you, Rik Spector

@@ItzUKGBatz thanks for watching and commenting… oh and starring. I need to add a credit 😉

It is a flying reptile. Pterosaurs were not dinosaurs. Either were the large aquatic reptiles like mosasaurs or ichyosaurs. They had a common ancestor but the dinos evolved with distinct differences. The most common an anatomical feature for dinos are the hips. Those really separate them from the other reptiles. Maybe I need to do an episode about that at some point.

Thank you for asking.

@@earthandtime5817 Doh! I meant reptile! OK, so it is skeletal structure, the hips are distinctly different.

Thank you! Me also. Glad to be back.

Ha. I will use that one next time I present at an elementary school. Thank you. Hope all is well.

It is amazing to me that they could fly. Amazing.

@earthandtime5817 ah but Quetzalcoatlus was fairly lightweight vs. A multon airplane

Ha. I agree.

I always say Dinos have great publicists. I am fascinated y ancient mammals and the “terror” birds as well. Thanks for the comment.
