  • Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes
    35133_Geo_Michigan_Cover.qxd 11/13/07 10:26 AM Page 1 “The Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes” is written to augment any introductory earth science, environmental geology, geologic, or geographic course offering, and is designed to introduce students in Michigan and the Great Lakes to important regional geologic concepts and events. Although Michigan’s geologic past spans the Precambrian through the Holocene, much of the rock record, Pennsylvanian through Pliocene, is miss- ing. Glacial events during the Pleistocene removed these rocks. However, these same glacial events left behind a rich legacy of surficial deposits, various landscape features, lakes, and rivers. Michigan is one of the most scenic states in the nation, providing numerous recre- ational opportunities to inhabitants and visitors alike. Geology of the region has also played an important, and often controlling, role in the pattern of settlement and ongoing economic development of the state. Vital resources such as iron ore, copper, gypsum, salt, oil, and gas have greatly contributed to Michigan’s growth and industrial might. Ample supplies of high-quality water support a vibrant population and strong industrial base throughout the Great Lakes region. These water supplies are now becoming increasingly important in light of modern economic growth and population demands. This text introduces the student to the geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes region. It begins with the Precambrian basement terrains as they relate to plate tectonic events. It describes Paleozoic clastic and carbonate rocks, restricted basin salts, and Niagaran pinnacle reefs. Quaternary glacial events and the development of today’s modern landscapes are also discussed.

  • “Land of the Million Dollar Sunsets”
    “LAND OF THE MILLION DOLLAR SUNSETS” Where is your favorite spot to enjoy a 'Million Dollar Sunset' in Michigan? When Ernest Hemingway married the first time in 1921, he and his bride were driving through Northern Michigan. The car crested a hill and Little Traverse Bay was spread out in front of them. “See all that,” Hemingway told his new wife. “Talk about the beauty of the Bay of Naples! I’ve seen them both, and no place is more beautiful than Little Traverse Bay in its autumn colors.” Follow in the footsteps of Hemingway as you travel winding roads to the gorgeous harbor towns of Charlevoix, Petoskey & Harbor Springs. You’ll understand why this region has been called ‘Land of the Million Dollar Sunsets’ since 1874. Day One – Charlevoix Nicknamed, “Charlevoix the Beautiful”, it is easy to see why. Beautiful petunias are blooming each year that span a 5 mile stretch along the main road coming into Charleviox. Separating the south and north end of town, Charlevoix’s draw bridge creates a beautiful view from the water and land. It’s a gorgeous sight to see the bridge opening & closing as the sailboats and yachts travel through. The Charlevoix Historical Society does a wonderful step on tour of the harbor town and offers a fascinating tour of the Mushroom Houses. Shaped with boulders, these rounded and curved homes with wavy, curvy roofs are known world-wide. And the only place you can see them is in Charlevoix, Michigan. Discover these fascinating stone houses that are snuggled into the hillside - learn about Earl Young, the architect who built & designed the houses into the landscape.
