Here are some of the series I've produced for the Geotripper Blog:

The Other California: what to see when you've seen all the really famous places in the Golden State (in progress).

Into the Great Unknown: A rafting journey down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. The most incredible adventure of my life (so far)!

The Hawai'i That Was: An exploration of the geology, natural history, and anthropology of the most isolated lands on the planet. It's a lot more than beaches, shopping, and palm trees!

Vagabonding on Dangerous Ground: An exploration of the Cascadia Subduction Zone from Northern California to British Columbia

Where the Sierra Nevada Rises from the Sea: A journey through the Salinian Block, the displaced Sierran rocks between Big Sur and Point Reyes on the California Coast

Driving Across the Most Dangerous Plate Boundary in the World: A journey across the former subduction zone that formed much of Central California, including the Coast Ranges, the Great Valley, and the Sierra Nevada.

Vagabonding Across the 39th Parallel: A journey through the geological wonderland in central Nevada, Utah and Colorado.

A Convergence of Wonders, a compilation of posts on our journey through the Pacific Northwest and Northern Rocky Mountains in 2011.

The Abandoned Lands, a compilation of posts on our journey around the margins of the Colorado Plateau in 2012.

Out of nowhere, a strange political issue: California's state rock is serpentine, and there is a effort to remove it. Learn why we shouldn't in this series of posts on a beautiful rock.

Time Beyond Imagining: A "Brief" History of the Colorado Plateau - this was an extended exploration of the geology of one of the great geological showplaces on planet Earth

Under the Volcano and Into the Abyss: Yosemite National Park - Exploring a few of the lesser known corners of Yosemite Valley, from below and from above

The Airliner Chronicles: My First Blog Series - Seeing geology from the perspective of seven miles above.

See Of Vooks and Blooks (and the comments) for an explanation of the title!
