- Columbia Gorge Geology Field Trip Guide - DeKay, L. & Hurd, T., 2021; A guide book to accompany IAFI-Columbia Gorge Chapter semi-annual field trips through the Columbia River Gorge. The central Columbia River Gorge is like a storybook of the past 40-50 million years, and we open and read from several chapters of that book in a 10 hour bus/walking tour of a 40 mile section of the Gorge between Cascade Locks, OR to Columbia Hills State Park, WA. As we turn some of those pages and take a glimpse into the incredible geology and more of the Columbia River Gorge, we will reveal many secrets that are hidden right in plain sight.
- Columbia River Gorge - HugeFloods (22:21): The Columbia River Gorge features an incredible variety of geology and human history as it slices through the Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest. The Columbia River Basalts, the Missoula Floods, the Bonneville Flood, the Bridge of the Gods, Celilo Falls, Multnomah Falls, Beacon Rock, Lewis and Clark, the Oregon Trail, the Columbia River Highway, and more!

- The Mystery of the Megaflood - PBS NOVA (53:37): Geologist J Harlen Bretz in 1923 was the first to propose a radical geologic theory-that huge geologic features in Americas Pacific Northwest were formed by catastrophic water flow. He named the Channeled Scablands; with its catastrophically water-carved coulees; dry waterfalls; potholes and huge erratic boulders. At that time; most scientists believed these geologic features were formed by gradual erosion and deposition following the notion of uniformitarianism; which ruled out sudden changes in the landscape by catastrophic events.
