This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geologic Story of the Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado A year later, 1907, an automobile stage line was established between Estes Park and Loveland, and in 1909 Mr. Enos A. Mills began his work of urging the establishment of the national reservation. While the vast tumbled massing of mountains in Colorado became a notable landmark for the early explorers, that magnificently scenic grouping which is now the Rocky Mountain National Park became known only in later years. The reason was that, while it fronts immediately the great eastern plains, it lay apart from and between the natural passes across the Rockies. The first historical reference to this section is found in the records of the explorations of Lieut. Pike, for whom Pikes Peak was named. Scanning the snow-topped mountain barrier from the plains in November, 1806, Pike singled out its most commanding height and called it Great Peak; but he entered the mountains many miles south.

Download or read book The Geologic Story of Canyonlands National Park Classic Reprint written by S. W. Lohman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geologic Story of Canyonlands National Park Unless credited to others, for which grateful acknowledgment is made, the color photographs were taken by me. Most of these were taken on 4 by 5 - inch film in a tripod-mounted press camera using lenses of several focal lengths, but a few were taken on 35-millimeter film. Unless credited to others, the black and white photographs were kindly loaned from the Moab and Arches files of the National Park Service. The points from which most of the photographs were taken are shown in figure 19. Although Major John Wesley Powell was not the first geologist to view the canyon lands, his two daring boat trips down the Green and Colorado Rivers in 1869 and 1871 made history by bringing to light the first descriptions of the geography and geology of what was then the largest remaining uncharted wilderness in the United States. Many landmarks along the canyons in the park were named by Powell and his men during those explorations. J. S. Newberry is thought to have been the first geologist to view the canyon lands - at least he seems to have been the first one whose observations were recorded but the more comprehensive findings of Powell (1875) were the ones that made history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Geology of Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado So it is with the history of the earth, which we call geology. A great volcanic eruption took place long before the coming of man. We do not need tradition to tell us of the event; we see the crater and the hardened lava flow. Most of us take the world for granted. We do not stop to consider the forces which produced the familiar landscapes nor the series of events which the hills and the rocks record. But for him who observes closely, and carefully pieces together his scattered observations, there gradually unfolds a picture of earth history so vast in its span of time that it staggers imagination. If the information presented in the following pages affords the visitor to Rocky Mountain National Park a brief glimpse of this history, revealing to him the origin of the grand scenery which he admires, it have accomplished its purpose.
