Types of rocks
Kayenta formation-type rocks
Just layers and layers of rock here. We booked a lower Antelope Canyon tour, which I would recommend. I was walking close to the tour guide for our group and he pointed out all the iconic Windows and Mac wallpapers. All the tours are standardized and there’s only a few companies allowed to operate in each section, so it doesn’t matter which company you go with. I did like the lower canyon though because it’s a longer path. Did you know that taking videos of the canyon isn’t allowed? The whole thing is copyrighted by the Navajo nation.
I saw the Grand Canyon again! This time from the west rim. It’s reminds me of a specific fictional dinosaur-inhabited desert 🤣

Sierra rocks
In the Sierra Nevada mountain range, there’s a lot of granite. 1
Volcanic rocks
When you walk on them, they sound very hollow and make a crunching sound. Don’t try touching the rocks on the ground though! There’s this very thin glass-like stuff called Pele’s hair2 which forms during an eruption, and it’s very sharp but also very hard to see.

Quartz changes
I spent too much time in February which kind of burnt me out. I tried the alternative password protected notes which was interesting but idk. There was a big set of updates to Quartz, so I was just pulling those in and dealing with the upstreams.

Pele’s hair (closest modern Hawaiian translation: “lauoho o Pele”) is a volcanic glass formation produced from cooled lava stretched into thin strands, usually from lava fountains, lava cascades, or vigorous lava flows. It is named after Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of volcanoes. 💬 Pele’s hair - Wikipedia
