When I was in third grade in California, our teacher Mrs. Beatty was a geologist that settled down and married a rodeo bronc rider turned rodeo clown. 2 weeks after school started she and her husband took 3rd,4th,5th graders in school buses up into the Sierras on a field trip to Devils Post Pile National Monument. I was so mesmerized by the columns as she described the process that formed them. Her husband took a pick hammer and played them like a xylophone. Each one had a different sound. She was a great teacher and a wonderful person and I always remember her when watching your videos. Her favorite spot on earth was Dry Falls as she grew up near Orondo / Waterville, she had home movies and lots of pictures of the Dry Falls precipice. I visited that area several times in my travels and always thought of her. Thank you for what you do.

Nick, what you are doing is very important! I am an amateur, yet I have never stopped learning. Geology has been my passion most of my life. No degrees, but a life long interest and journey in learning. I have so enjoyed your field trips, seeing the rocks through your eyes and sometimes through the eyes of your students. I also love the lectures in your classroom. You are the consummate educator. I no longer live in WA state, but you have given me new insight into my home state and its geology and I will be forever grateful. Don't stop.

The field trips are important Nick. Taking your camera out into the places that would take awhile for us to get to or to inspire future field trips to the places less traveled is helpful and very educational. Don't stop the field trips. Being from somewhere else, I've lived in Washington the last 45 yrs and never knew the story behind the Big Black Boring Rock until about 15 yrs ago as most of the locals that grew up in Spokane didn't even know about their own state. They knew Mt Rainier, Adams, Hood,. Baker, St Helens were all volcanos but that's about it. There wasn't a whole lot of public lectures out there until you started filming your lectures from Ellensburg as public outreach for CWU. Now I refer people to your lectures when they ask. thanks.

Nick you're my hero! I'm in Wenatchee. Stuck on bed rest this weekend after knee surgery. And I'm not taking it well. I want to be outside. But your outside is even better than my outside. Thank god for field study! 😍 I SO wish you'd come here to study Saddlerock, Castlerock, and Rooster Comb. I, for one, LOVE this kind of video. I have to confess, I left school after 10th grade, and only got a G.E.D. I have watched endless hours of your university lectures. You are a phenomenal teacher. These field videos, however, let us fully experience your hidden personality. It is delightful to see you get frustrated in the classroom. I love your chalkboard maps. I get a kick out of watching you try to get your sketch just right. The whole time, I'm thinking, "okay, I follow you. Yes I can totally see that on Google maps in my mind." When you're trying to stay on the teaching plan, it makes me wish I could hear you just speak freely. I watched your videos last summer. But you seem a bit more cheeky this year. I am praying for you to come across some Nobel prize winning discovery! 6:10...... When you mentioned Quincy, I REALLY think you need to come look at East Wenatchee. I live on the west side of the river. I was just sitting at the North of town 2 days ago, looking towards Badger Mtn, and out towards Waterville/ Orondo... I think you'll find that East Wenatchee is right in line with where you were yesterday and today. I think you might find tootsie rolls around Saddlerock. And I think just north of where you are, there used to be a ridge that extended across the Columbia, to connect with Rooster Comb. Yesterday, I met another Washingtonian on our local news Facebook page. Your video yesterday came up in my comments. He said he'd have to try to find the video. I shared it to him. He commented today, that he had spent the day watching your videos. You will SURELY inspire people either with zero exposure, to become interested. And those who are already interested, to dive head first into the rabbit hole. I don't have any interest in ever being published. I hate money. And I'm a hardcore introvert. I'd rather just spend my entire life watching and waiting, and have someone else validate or refute everything that I hypothesize. To credit CWU, my son was a tech major. He graduated high school in 2015 with college transfer credits. He was working on enrolling in CWU for 2016. Autumn. He passed away in September 2016 from cardiomyopathy. I am really grateful that I found your videos, because it's probably the closest my son will ever get to his dream. 💙 PLEASE never stop being YOU. I am unemployed due to disability. Everything is about looking for new direction. Just one suggestion. I've seen your videos so many times, I could pick you out of a lineup. But for those who have just discovered you, it would be delightful if you started the first couple seconds of the video by showing your congenial face. A stranger might just walk up to you in a car park somewhere and say, "hey, I saw you on KZfaq!" 😊

And I think your videos promoting the Geology Dept among others IS working, as well as your own reputation and those of your colleagues in the Geology Dept. CWU owns a reputation for being one of the premier venues for the Geology field, and that is due in no small part to the work your colleagues are doing behind the chalkboards as well as your work in front of them.

not exactly sure where you were going with the comments about what we viewers think of your varied efforts to bring us geology. But I will offer that you are fabulously effective in bringing geology down to earth in understandable terms for us ordinary joes. None of us ordinary types are going to hunt up and read or view published materials about geology because it is invariably in technical jargon we cannot understand and frankly it is to us dry as dust. You are the intermediary, bringing information to us in a way we can understand and it is truly entertaining. Most of us can't get out to these locations nor attend your classroom and lecture hall events so production of videos for us to watch is wonderfully beneficial to us all. I guess it goes without saying that the many varieties in the way you share geology with us keeps it interesting, it promotes an appetite for more of your wonderfully gifted work. We are blessed to have you. I want to add that what you do, the energetic and enthusiastic sharing should be more on the minds of other geologists. I sense there is an aversion to public access, a closed and competitive environment among geologists to the extent the public is really being shut out. It ought not to be a "private" domain for these professionals, after all much of what they do, their life's work is bought and paid for by public funds paying their salaries and financing the institutions in which they pursue their work.

PLEASE don’t stop making these!!! I can’t access the places you go and the people you talk to bc of brain injuries and poverty so it means a lot that you’re out there making these areas accessible. I grew up during the realization that plate tectonics is real and hearing stories of the Missoula flood from my childhood back in the 60s, and as I’ve aged the scope of the matter has become magnitudes larger and it’s pretty clear there aren’t enough people working on our geologic history in the minutia that brings true clarity. speaking of which, the lower Columbia seems to be greatly neglected in the Missoula flood story. I think I finally got a partial grip on the geology and some of the tectonics thanks to your awesome videos, but I’m bothered by the dearth of data on the lower Columbia flood. my kids and I just bought a parcel of land and I plan to map the soil layers when we start excavating to build, because I feel like the floodwaters had to have been higher than accepted in the approach to Longview (DISCLOSURE: I AM NOT A GEOLOGIST I’M A ROCKHOUND SO COULD BE FULL OF IT) and even west of Longview, after looking at LIDAR of the area of the Clatskanie river. if I find erratics I’ll do my best to catalogue them (it will take 2-3 years before I can start digging. it’s pretty remote for being a stone’s throw from the Columbia river). the parcel is in a creek valley not far from the headwaters but it’s got a lot of sediment in it. I haven’t paid as much attention to uplift as I have subduction in my life, so it’s not easy for me to understand. and here’s where one of the things you brought up comes in: I generally have to wait until things are published and hope that they aren’t behind a paywall! so if there is nothing published about the typical shapes of uplifted stream valleys, I have nothing to go on (I’m not sure yet if there is, I just got to this point in this journey). I just have great difficulty believing the floodwaters didn’t overtop the coastal mountains when low spots were encountered, and I’m also having difficulty finding much that addresses the ice-age coastline as being a component in backing up water. maybe I’m nuts! but my curiosity is making me nuts! GEOLOGY IS AWESOME!!!

No, continue with the raw stuff I like watching. Though I like your class stuff too. Let's face it you're an interesting guy. I love the way you present. Rock on, Nick!

Thanks for the beautiful informative walk. Wish I would have explored these trails while I could still walk. Always appreciate your efforts.
