Rockwatching: Adventures Above and Below Ontario |
| Explore ancient seabeds. See
evidence of catastrophic floods. Witness the effects of glaciers that scoured
the continent. Discover signs of droughts that lasted thousands of
years. Southern Ontario's sedimentary deposits hold the fascinating story of our planet's last half billion years. Because most of the surface rock in Southern Ontario is limestone, dolostone or marble, geologic history is readily available in its distinctive layers if you know where to look! Michael Gordon's book will lead you hiking, climbing, or caving back in time. With beautiful photography and fascinating accounts, his book will inspire you to take a different look at many of Southern Ontario's scenic areas from the Bruce Trail and the Bruce Peninsula, to the Thames Valley Trail, the Oak Ridges Moraine, the Rideau trail and beyond. |
