  3. A closeup of the roadcut opposite the Canada Lake Store. Carrnockite is a type of orthopyroxene-bearing granite, which gives this rock its green hue. Orthopyroxene (rather than biotite or hornblende) reflects the granulite facies conditions under which this rock was metamorphosed. Midway through this one the partl...

  4. The last Gigapan of the road trip from Pennsylvania to California came a day after the Tetons at Lake Tahoe. After leaving the Tetons we passed through Idaho Falls then crossed down in to northern Nevada. We drove as far as we could before spending the night in a hotel near a small town called Battle Mountain. Nor...

However, since these are found in Precambrian metamorphic rocks that is clearly not the case. In fact, this is probably some sort of metamorphosed concretion(?). This GigaPan...

  10. Gneiss / pegmatite ledges form pools along the Natchaug River in northeastern Connecticut. We didn't hike the entire way back to the swimming hole known as Diana's Pool (this is along the hike) - the outcrop here was too photogenic (and we had other sites to visit!)
