Roadside Geology of AlaskaThe biggest US state is full of superlatives.

The biggest US state is full of superlatives. Denali, the highest peak in North America at 20,320 feet, is still rising, pushed upward as a tectonic plate collides from the south. The collision has also created huge mountains along Alaska�s Gulf Coast, where humid coastal air has produced the largest subpolar icefield in North America. The exceptional heights of Alaska�s mountains are mirrored below sea level by the 22,377-foot-deep trench of the active subduction zone along Alaska�s southern shore. Earthquakes associated with the subduction zone shake Alaskans frequently, and the magnitude 9.2 earthquake in 1964, with its epicenter in Prince William Sound, was one of the largest seismic events ever recorded.Such an active geologic setting calls for an updated edition of this popular roadside geology guide. Since the first edition was published in 1988, volcanoes have erupted, faults have ruptured, glaciers have retreated, permafrost has thawed, and geologic interpretations have changed. Author Cathy Connor discusses the latest findings as she guides readers along the roads of Alaska and adjacent parts of British Columbia and the Yukon. In addition to roads and national parks, the book covers the �boatside geology� of Alaska, including the fjords of southeast Alaska, islands in the Bering Sea, and the Tatshenshini River. Roadside Geology of Alaska is a must-have for any Alaska rock enthusiast.

Best purchase
Color: Blue-Green-Orange
These are by far one of the best toys for my aggressive chewer. My pitbull mix loves the football & ball, gave the other toy to my niece's dog. Bought them in Nov/Dec and they have held up great, still look new. I was upset when I saw they are no longer available. I would have purchased more to have some for specific outdoor use.

Good buy
Color: Blue-Green-Orange
Babies didn't use them. Too tough for their mouths. They are to small. Good for a bigger puppy.

Mastiff mix puppy loves them
Color: Blue-Green-Orange
I have experience with large working dog breeds, and I've got a mastiff lab mix puppy, who at 5 months weighs 50 pounds and is teething hard, and chews on everything. Most chew toys I've tried broke within a few minutes, but these have held up. I like that the ones I received are hollow, so I can put puppy kibbles inside them to keep the dog busy in her crate, and slow her eating so she doesn't scarf down her meals and get sick. The hole is small, but I feed small sized "taste of the Wild" brand kibbles, and they would pour out of Kong toys within seconds. I have recommended them to other puppy owners.
My dog isn't an aggressive chewer, but for a teething puppy, these toys do seem to be ideal.

Nice material but do not recommended for aggressive chewers
Color: Blue-Green-Orange, Color: Blue-Green-Orange
Why did you pick this product vs others?:
The material is nice and easy to wash but definitely do not recommend for large breeds/ aggressive chewers. My big pup ripped one up within seconds of getting it. The ball has lasted!
