PlanetGeo: The Geology Podcast

Cutting the Grand Canyon - Dr. John Douglass


Listen Later

Join us as we have the honor of interviewing Dr. John Douglas.  Jesse and Chris have been following his research on how the Grand Canyon was actually formed for some time.  We have recently finished our audio-visual book on the Grand Canyon (Link above) and we have a chapter dedicated to the actual cutting of the Canyon.  The answer to this question has been elusive, but there are a few leading theories.  John has been leading the way on the Spillover Theory as a mechanism for carving the young Canyon.  It's a great geologic discussion and we hope you enjoy.
