Yellowstone National Park Geology Lab Book

Product Description

Yellowstone National Park is a great place to study geology! With hot springs, waterfalls, geysers, mountains, glacial remnants, and fascinating geological formations, it makes Yellowstone a natural outdoor laboratory!

Originally developed for high school students attending our Yellowstone School, this downloadable PDF lab book is now available for anyone who wants to dig deeper into the geology of our nation’s first national park.

Much more than a guide to identifying geological features, you’ll explore Yellowstone’s geology through a Biblical framework, comparing the evolutionary interpretation of Earth’s history with a Biblical worldview. You’ll investigate geological processes and examine the forces that have shaped this Yellowstone, with a Biblical perspective.
