Geology and Our National Parks

This is a wonderful way to study some of the national parks and monuments of the US National Park system! Each park or monument represents a different area of geological study, so while you get a grand overview of these parks, you also get a study of one particular area of geology with each location. And it is all done from a young Earth, global Flood perspective.
