Ohio Rocks - Geology, Ice Age Features, Fossils, and Resources

Ohio is a state through which I have passed several times, initially in 1974, but I haven't spent much time there, other than visiting the Hudepohl and Schoenling breweries in Cincinnati in 1981 and 1982. 

After our van's minor breakdown in Cincinnati afternoon traffic during our August 2021 trip, we stayed the night in Sharon, OH on the north side of Cincinnati, but left out for Michigan as soon as repairs were complete.

That being the case, no slight was intended towards the state, it has just been "in-between" our starting point and our destination on numerous journeys, as have been Alabama and Mississippi (except for Civil War sites in Corinth and Vicksburg during the Spring 2021 van "shakedown cruise" and a 2015 stop at a loess outcrop in Vicksburg).

So today's and tomorrow's videos are for my own learning, in the hopes of being able to visit any geological sites if we are able to make another Michigan trip next year (to visit my wife's hometown of Traverse City).  This year we were constrained by needing to make a family reunion in Traverse City and other than visiting Frankenmuth, MI there were no other stops planned.

Driftless Area Mystery

Glacial Drift is a general term for Glacial Deposits.  "Driftless area" = 24,000 sq. miles
