Geo Beck | HOW THE ICE AGE CREATED THE HUDSON RIVER | New York State natural history | Hudson Valley New York @Geobeck | Uploaded July 2020 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
In this video I talk about how the Ice Age created the Hudson River thousands of years ago (which is not long at all in geologic time!). I am from and live in the Hudson Valley, New York (yes, there is more than just NYC), and I've always loved living here! I went to college to study geology and through this, learned all about the natural history of New York State. I wanted to share that with others, because I found it very interesting myself.
If you're interested in learning more about geology, watch my other videos and subscribe for when I post more in the future! :)
