The Most Photographed Stone East of the Mississippi

Very near the Soudan Underground State Park administered by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is what some people call “the most photographed outcrop in the state.” This is a pavement outcrop of folded banded iron formation. The outcrop consists of metallic hematite, red jasper and white chert. These originally horizontal layers have been folded multiple times. In some areas, the jasper and chert have fractures filled with milky quartz.

Why scientists are using the word scary over the climate crisis

The former BBC environment analyst Roger Harrabin has spent his career talking to scientists. Now they’re telling him they’re scared of what they’re seeing

My first cat tail mat!! We only had only thin leafed cat tails to work with, so instead of being neatly sewn together in a few places down the length, they are instead loosely woven. Not as sharp as ones made of broad leaves, but not bad for what it is- and it taught a lot of people while it was being made to boot!

I’m proud to say that 100% of my devices are now solar powered!

My GoPro charging cable plugs into my computer (which I *didn’t* know prior to purchasing either), so by that timely stroke of luck, my entire mobile device and accessories life is completely solar powered. It took less than 6 months (June 1st - November 20th) to get everything I carry around with me off the grid! I haven’t plugged anything but my computer into a wall in 6 months! (I literally no longer own wall outlet adapters)

My phone, my wireless headphones, my Bluetooth speaker, my Amazon Echo Dot, my GoPro, my video camera, my running headphones, my roommate’s PS4 controllers, and now, finally, my laptop.

Sunlight. Is. Awesome.

Make the leap. Go portable solar.
