Fourteen years later, the Big Sky portion of that book was updated to become \u003ci\u003eRoadside Geology of Montana\u003c\/i\u003e, a bright-yellow field guide that soon graced bookshelves across the state. Now nearly nearly 50 years after the first book, comes along a completely revised full-color second edition that, like so many things in Montana, is big. But consider this: no other place in the world has such amazingly diverse and well-exposed rocks with such dramatic stories. For example, Montana lies at the northern edge of the Yellowstone caldera, the world's largest and most violent volcano. A lot of what the world knows about dinosaurs and their demise came from fossils discovered in Montana's badlands. What began with panning for gold in the 1860s led to 1-mile-deep mines in Butte that supplied 60 percent of the world's copper by 1898. The world's largest ice age floods left ripples up to 50 feet high as Glacial Lake Missoula catastrophically drained from western Montana. With this book as your guide, you'll discover these and other world-class geologic features around every bend of the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Authors: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDonald W.

Southern Idaho has been shaped by calderas of the Yellowstone hot spot, along with active faults of the Basin and Range, and one monumental flood that carried boulders the size of cars. Rock hounds can search for star garnets along Emerald Creek, zeolite crystals in basalt cavities, and eye-shaped feldspar in ancient gneiss. Fossil enthusiasts can discover leaf imprints at Clarkia Fossil Beds, learn about Pliocene horses at Hagerman Fossil Beds, and contemplate the bizarrely whorled teeth of the buzz saw shark who prowled the sea 290 million years ago when Idaho's phosphate deposits were accumulating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Authors: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReed Lewis grew up in Northern Idaho.
