bamfordsgarage Posted October 3, 2014 Report Posted October 3, 2014 One of our local club members made and posted these YouTube videos of our recent treks to find the Whitecourt Meteor Crater. This high-speed boulder struck the earth only 1,100 years ago and the site was unknown (as a crater) until July 2007. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitecourt_crater A number of meteorite fragments have been located in the area since 2007. Did we find one? Watch and find out... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZkwWls0i_yw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHP3Hrnxg3M 5 Quote

DCurrent Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 I hope that one day my wife and I can take road trips like this like they did 60 years ago. Looks like it was a good time. Quote
