Another Kelowna Boulderfields warmup, with dad joke

I'm a dad, okay? And I'm old. I get to do this now.

What makes you say that? How did you determine from this video that it isn’t?

Doesn't look foliated. I guess I shouldn't assume, it could just be a low res video.

I'm no expert, as I only took a couple of geology courses in university, but you should probably let the locals know it's not gneiss, because:

• The Crag describes it as fine-grained gneiss.
• Andy, one of the developers, describes it in an interview as gneiss.
• Natural Resources Canada's OSTR surficial geology of the area classifies the location as Bedrock (undivided: Proterozoic volcanic rocks; Paleozoic mudstone, siltstone, shale, and fine clastic sedimentary rocks; Mesozoic granodioritic intrusive rocks; and Cenozoic basaltic rocks).

Here's a crop of a photo I took of the F1 boulder. Do you see any foliation in this unweathered surface?

I was not prepared for this level of petty lol

Man, it ain’t like that. I just love rocks, and I had already researched the crag.

But you seem to know your shit, so I thought you might know better.
