The Sands Of Time tells about the formation of Cape Cod by ice, wind and waves . It accounts for the forces of erosion and how this give-and-take process is a vital component of what makes Cape Cod what it is today.

Skipping class, smoking oneself into a near-coma and watching this on loop at the Visitor’s Center. A Nauset tradition.

My grandparents had a house in Eastham from mid 1980s to early 2000s. I saw this video at a minimum three times a summer. I didn't know how good I had it. I thought every 13 year old got to spend three months a year at the beach. Carefree days indeed you thought would never end.

Savor it. I have been in the same situation wishing I had savored what I was doing. My grandparents has a giant house in west Falmouth. I’d spend weeks there. Fish off the docks in woods hole and on the canal. Totally different now. I don’t like it. They passed away and house was sold for 3.5 million. Memories

SAME. I spent 2-3 months of summer at the Eastham beach house each year. We would go to the visitors center on our first day every year

This is excellent. I was blessed to have lived on Martha's Vineyard from 1995-2000. I think of Long Island, Block Island, Elizabeth Islands, the Vineyard, Muskeget, Tuckernuck and Nantucket as all part of the same archipelego. When you live on any of these islands you can't help but be aware of the geology that was formed by the glacial activity. On all of them, as well as Cape Cod itself, the north shores are typically rocky and the south shores are sandy where the finer sand was pushed ahead of the rocks. The Cape and Islands remain my favorite part of America's east coast.

The closest common name for all those places is the "Outer Lands". Although I don't think it is official.

Man only if cuttyhunk wasn't in the way of Gooseberry island we would have the best surf around! LOL .. It's funny I went to the Wellfleet to today and met up with a local friend from there, the surf but I mist the low tide window . So we chatted about waves and what not, " He told me a little history about Cape sense he is much older than me. So like any young grasshopper would do, I listened! lol told me about how many miles cape used to be and how he could just run out on to the beach at white crest now its one big hill lol , also told me about that big chunk of island that was out there and now it's gone. It Got me thinking man! I need to look this up and check it out and here I am lol , I didn't grow up on cape but lived some what close I grew up by the water less then a mile in Dartmouth, the Sea has always had my interest and always has me thinking WOW I wonder what it was like here a long time ago! when your paddle boarding on those summer days in the Marsh area and coves I always attend to day dream lol. SO thankful to live so close to the ocean! So please Respect Big blue and she will respect you back. STAY SALTY EVERYONE !

The visitor center has the cleanest restrooms anywhere, always dropped in for this. About ten years ago they retired the film, so many people asked for it they brought it back. 😊 And just have to say it, global warming existed before Republican's? Imagine having to shovel half mile deep snow to get your car out.....and if you weren't careful a polar bear got you. Think the ending of Snowpiercer.....

Actually, there was no Ice age... and the Cape extended much further East of Nantucket than it does today... there were dangerous shoals 30 miles East of Nantucket in colonial times, making the area very hazardous so much so that all trade between New York and Plymouth went up through Buzzards Bay to the Apatuxet trading post, the across the Cape by its two rivers, then by shallop North to Plymouth and the other towns...

@@thedocisin3204 Hi Doc... been practicing lately? Yes, look at ALL the river deltas of the world... Divide the cubic volume of the dirt deposited , (making a river delta)at the mouth of the river by its annual deposits, and you will find the Mississippi, for example, has only being flowing into the Gulf of Mexico for about 5000 years!!! Same with Egypt/s Nile or Brazil's Amazon!!! The ancient maps available at U Cal's Berkly.edu show Greenland with very little ice, just a copple thousand years ago!!! The Vikings in their Sagas likewise saw Greenland, Newfoundland with a Florida like climate 700 years ago!!! Yes Greenland was actually Green back then!!! Berkley has a map of Antartica showing it is composed of five islands (only recently proven) and ice free!!!

@@lewis7315 Sorry Lewis you are in the wrong time period. The ice age that formed Cape Cod was the Pleistocene Epoch. Is defined as the time period that began about 2.6 million years ago and lasted until about 11,700 years ago. The most recent Ice Age occurred then, as glaciers covered huge parts of the planet Earth. Cape Cod was formed as the glaciers from the Holocene glacial retreat melted just like the movie says. The events you are referring to came in the Holocene era and is the current geological epoch. The warming in our recent era is partly responsible for the rapid proliferation, growth and impacts of the human species worldwide. There is a wealth of information on this topic available on the internet from good sources. And yes I have practiced lately.

Those dangerous shoals are still there. They are called monomoy and George’s bank but they are not exactly east of Nantucket. The ice age deposited the sand and boulders that makes the cape and Long Island block Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket are moraines left by retreating ice sheets. But whatever you would like to believe.
