HISTORY: Devils Tower region

| May 23, 2018 1:00 AM

My wife and I just returned from the fabulously geologic-rich states of Montana and Wyoming. We even got photos of a grizzly bear. Fortunately, the bear was minding his own business!

There is evidence that the volcanic Devils Tower (History Corner) was exhumed from softer sediments during the second part of a global and recent crustal catastrophe.

Several hundred miles northwest of the Tower is the Hell Creek Formation, which has dinosaur fossils still containing collagen, connective tissue, protein, blood cells, and soft tissue.

A Cal State University-Northridge researcher was fired for claiming a Triceratops dinosaur fossil (Hell Creek Formation), with a fragment of meat at the base of a horn, was not millions of years old. Truth is hard to get out.

The evidence continues from Choteau, Montana. The bones of about 10,000 duck-bill dinosaurs were found in an area stretching 1-1/4 miles. These 9-to 23-foot-long dinosaurs had been killed in an earlier event, as ocean waters first came on the land. Then their bodies were exposed and reburied as mountain building and uplift commenced, with high erosional runoff.

Most of the continents are reporting similar evidence of soft-tissue preservation, even in trilobite fossils supposed to be older than the dinosaurs. Tens of thousands of feet of global sediments show catastrophic deposition, including massive liquefaction and soft-sediment deformation.

Ancient peoples from most of the continents told us that they lived with dragons (dinosaurs), and that the earth went through a global crustal destruction.

Devils Tower is not a stand alone monument. There are resistant volcanic buttes and plateaus throughout the Earth.
