It'd be wonderful, but as it is it took Nick and Brady six months to put together the latest _NOTR_ series. Add that to his teaching and RUclips channel and responsibility to the school, and now working to help LIz get better, there just ain't enough hours in a day.
Thankful for Nick spending time to bring all these stories and ideas to people in a way that is accessible and interesting. Wish there were more people in all the various sciences that had such a good rapport with the audience, and a accessible style that simplifies topics in the way Nick can, while not pandering .
What an amazing team, Gary Paull who knows the backcountry of Washington like the back of his hand, Nick Zentner whose storytelling captivates & educates us, and Brady Lawrence's World-class direction brings it all together for us to be amazed and entertained. Thank you all.
As someone who has lived in the shadow of Mounts Index and Persis for 48 years this was really interesting. Thanks, so much, for being the educator that you are.
Nick is one of those few educators that truly get his rocksoff educating the people on one the most important subjects known to man .... History ... Of the Earth 🌎 ! ! ! Our spaceship to the future-er-er-er-er-er ...
Lake Serene and Lake 22 were some of my favorite North Cascade hikes when I lived in the area. It really checks all the boxes. A challenging but not back-breaking climb, a beautiful alpine lake and well placed summit backdrop, along with a bit of glacier. I always came down to the car fully satisfied with the meal.
Thank you Nick and crew for taking us along on your explorations. Perfect blend of science and scenery. I’m always interested in what you have to show us next. Great work!
At least in part, some of the uplift is due to the injection of all that hot rock, much of which is lighter and more felsic. Continental crust is lighter than the mantle and "floats" on top of it, kind of like an iceberg floating -- partly submerged but partly exposed -- in the surrounding ocean. If an iceberg is bigger, more will be below the waterline, but more also sticks above. With every pluton and volcano added to the Cascades, they rise a little higher...!
You guys need a blue UN disclaimer box for your youtube videos! They are that important (of a secret to keep?) Thanks again Nick, I am back in my pupil seat paying close attention.
Cool video. Idk much about cascades geology, but i do know about tree types in that part of the Cascades. I've been in the area before with my hiking club once from Oregon. Wesern hemlock is one of the most common trees, along with western reccedar and douglas fir at lower elevations. Mid elevation forest in this part of the cascades is usually western hemlock, pacific silver fir and some yellow cedar, all three are tree species highly tolerant of shade. At elevations above 4,000 ft. mountain hemlock, yellow cedar and subalpine fir are the dominant species.
I had a " Nic of the Rocks " at " Nick's On The Rocks Cafe & Rock-a-torium Museum ... It's pretty much like a Long island ice tea except they put hot rocks in this marble stone cup, warms you right up and you can't see straight for an hour.
Wow is right! I love your shows Nick!! I want to go on a field trip! You are welcome to come shoot at my house. I live at the very tip of the Toandos Peninsula. We can walk the shoreline.
I loved this episode, though I wish the drone shot panoramas were slower and perhaps labeled to identify them. Google earth studios would be helpful to orient the viewer and give some perspective to the region. I think this video could’ve been at least 20 minutes longer, and still not told the story. I understand you’re limited on time but the production quality that you have achieved here is gold. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It would help if you had explained the odd term index granite. I wasted time puzzling over what it's an index to. I guess it's just the name of the formation.
Thank You, Professor Nick; A picture is worth a thousand words.
I see Nick Zentner, I thumbs up
So good…so good. Such a good story teller. It’s a bummer these episodes are not longer. Prof Nick and crew, can we make these longer?
It'd be wonderful, but as it is it took Nick and Brady six months to put together the latest _NOTR_ series. Add that to his teaching and RUclips channel and responsibility to the school, and now working to help LIz get better, there just ain't enough hours in a day.
Nick Zentner is a "rock" star.
Love your lessons!

Wonderful. Thank you, Nick.
Again, the drone work is fabulous.
Brady Lawrence is a dawg ain't he.
Thank you Nick and Cascade PBS
That's really cool, Nick. Thanks to you, Backcountry Gary, and all for this information.
What an amazing team, Gary Paull who knows the backcountry of Washington like the back of his hand, Nick Zentner whose storytelling captivates & educates us, and Brady Lawrence's World-class direction brings it all together for us to be amazed and entertained. Thank you all.
Saved the surprise for last! Thank You! Good music!
Thanks Nick. So many minerals up in that area. Literally hundreds of old mines and prospects Around Index.
As someone who has lived in the shadow of Mounts Index and Persis for 48 years this was really interesting. Thanks, so much, for being the educator that you are.
In addition to Nick's usual exemplary explanation of the science, this one was particularly beautiful. Excellent work! Thank you.
I agree, this one had magic.

That looks like a great place to hike and take it all in. Beautiful episode Nick.
Watching Nick here, while he livestreams Bimodal.... My mind is blown.(satisfied sigh).😊
I like the change in the Nick on the Rocks logo graphics. Very nice. Congratulations to the people who put that together. Wow! 😊👍
Wow. Beautifully composed presentation.
Thank you Nick and crew for taking us along on your explorations. Perfect blend of science and scenery. I’m always interested in what you have to show us next. Great work!
I still cannot comprehend the "uplift" of all in the Cascades?

Outstanding, thanks for doing this. I’ve been specifically hoping for you to do mt index! Fascinating history…

Rocks Rule !!

Snohomish county has two lake Serene's. One near everett. Back in day, the one near index was referred to as serene lake.

There's lots of things to discover and do on highway 2😊

Are these formations similar to the Castle Crags in Northern California?

I think I read that Mt Si is made up of meta gabbros.

Less scenery, more geology! After all this isn't Ned on the flower bed.
