Roadside Geology of Colorado by Halka Chronic

The third edition of this popular guide is now even better it's full color. Colorado's multihued rocks from white and red sandstones to green shales and pink granites are vividly splashed across the pages in stunning color photographs. Detailed color maps and diagrams clearly distill the state's complex bedrock geology. Updated text includes information about new discoveries, such as the mastodons and other Pleistocene fossils found at Snowmass, and new parks, such as Chimney Rock National Monument. Roadside Geology of Colorado is a must-have for any Colorado rock enthusiast.

Halka Chronic graduated from Columbia University with a degree in geology in 1949. From teaching at Haile Sellassie University in Ethiopia to establishing Geologic Landmarks for the United States, her profession carried her all over the world. In the southern Rockies, the National Park Service is active. She worked as an editor and raised her daughters in Boulder, Colorado for more than thirty years.
