4-godzinna prywatna wycieczka geologiczna w Parku Narodowym Gór Skalistych

Przegląd
In the comfort of your own vehicle, our knowledgeable step-on geologist guide, Ranger Rod, will direct you through Rocky Mountain National Park. He will take photos of your group's adventure as you travel through time in RMNP witnessing evidence of major rock and mineral forming processes that took place billions of years ago. Discover ancient mountains that started rising shortly after the dinosaurs went extinct, as well as landscape formed by later volcanic eruptions. More recently (in geologic time) learn how the mountains were sculpted by massive ice age glaciers and about early human history after the valley glaciers covering the area melted 12 thousand years ago. Seeing these natural wonders through the eyes of an experienced local geologist, will evolve your worldview of mountain landscapes and enhance future RMNP adventures.

6 hour tour times are only available in the summertime when Trail Ridge Rd is open, 4 hour tour reservations are available year-round.

Park Narodowy Gór Skalistych
Podczas swojej geologicznej wycieczki po RMNP: orientujesz się w parku za pomocą map 3D wyjaśniających główne topografie geologiczne; zbadaj dowody potężnych sił tektonicznych, wulkanicznych i lodowcowych, które stworzyły krajobraz parku; rozszyfruj historię geologiczną kryjącą się za zapierającymi dech w piersiach widokami najlepszych punktów widokowych parku i aktywnych siedlisk dzikich zwierząt; nauczyć się rozpoznawać główne skały i minerały RMNP, w tym metamorficzny gnejs i łupek oraz skały natrętne i wulkaniczne z wnętrza ziemi; zlokalizuj 5 starożytnych dolin lodowcowych i 8 dzisiejszych nazwanych lodowców wraz z wybitnymi szczytami oraz 3 pasma górskie parku. Przeżyj ponownie dziedzictwo rdzennych Amerykanów sprzed ponad 11 tysięcy lat i barwną historię pionierów, począwszy od XIX wieku.

Rocky Mountain National Park
On your geologic tour of RMNP you will: be oriented to the park using 3D Maps explaining major geologic topography; explore evidence of the powerful tectonic, volcanic, and glacial forces that created the park’s landscape; decipher the geologic story behind the breathtaking scenic vistas of the park’s best overlooks and active wildlife habitats; learn how to recognize major RMNP rocks and minerals, including metamorphic Gneiss and Schist, and intrusive and volcanic rocks from inner earth; locate 5 ancient glacial valleys and today’s 8 named glaciers along with prominent peaks, and the park’s 3 mountain ranges. Relive Indigenous American legacies dating back over 11 thousand years and colorful pioneer history starting in 1800’s.

If you want a tour of the amazing vistas of RMNP while learning how these sites were formed millions of years ago this tour is for you! Rod is so good at explaining complex geological terms in a way that they are easily understand. Plus he has a great sense of humor and is an excellent photographer. As part of the tour you will receive photos of your group and of the geological features seen on the tour! I highly recommend this tour - one of the best I've done!

Rod was one of the top tour guides that my wife and I have ever had. It was great having a geologist as our tour guide. He pointed out so many interesting things and if I can only remember 25% of them, that is great. Brought us to some of the "off the beaten track areas". My hat is off to Full Potentially Wilderness. They asked me several questions on the type of tour we wanted and Rod was assigned to be our tour guide. A perfect match. Thank you Rod.

Making it simple to start: Rod was fantastic! Somewhat longer and more detailed: we started with a short show and tell about the whole park in the lower level of the visitor’s center then jumped in our mini-van and Rod guided us up through all sorts of wonderful locations in the park and showed us the rocks, the geology, explained how everything had turned out like it has and, along the way, took some delightful family shots and some super wildlife pictures and vistas and shared them with us afterwards. We all 4 of us enjoyed, both adults and both grown boys and would recommend Rod’s company to anyone considering this type of activity in the future. I will add that he brought along a bag of rocks to show us as we drove around and also he communicated very actively and clearly both in the build-up to getting to Estes Park and after that tour as well
