495 - Amazing Formation of Monzogranite Rock Blocks

Join me on the scenic Barker Dam Loop in Joshua Tree National Park as we explore the incredible geology beneath our feet! In this video, we dive into the fascinating formation of monzogranite, a rock born from cooling magma deep underground.

🔍 You’ll discover:
• How monzogranite intruded into the much older Pinto Gneiss formation
• Why this rock cracked into vertical and horizontal joints over time
• How chemical erosion is shaping these fractures into smooth, rounded blocks we see today

This natural process reveals the powerful story of heat, pressure, time, and erosion—right in the heart of the desert.

📍Perfect for students, science lovers, and anyone curious about the earth beneath us.
