Excellent friend to have, he can give you an extensive geology lecture all the while holding your car up as you do break jobs and rotate your tires.

I think about Easter 1973, as an undergraduate at Aberdeen geology department, I set off on the traditional 'Prof's excursion'. A transect of the Alps from the Pre-Alps to northern Italy. It was largely an exposition of the classic works of Arthur Holmes and his associates, but brought to life in typical Alpine weather, not all of my classmates survived unscathed!!! I'm revelling in the detailed field crops you bring to the screen and expound, no doubt, the clarity brought by modern research to this showcase of Alpine geology😮

Different times! Back in the day a certain level of attrition was acceptable on field excursions... rather like Victorian mountaineering.

Another great video - superb scenery and a good explanation of complex processes reflected in the rock units you described. Look forward to the third video in the series!

Slightly more techy than usual but sets the scene (with eclogites) for a third Alpine film - in a couple of weeks time...

Always excellent. Argand was very ahead of his time (as with Suess)…his drawings are incredibly beautiful.

Never forget those rocks, they rework themselves periodically, as all us living entities need to do - nothing, as we are shown here, is static for long and identity is in for a ride.
