Quincy Basin Field Trip
October 11 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm PDT
$25 – $30


During the Missoula Floods the Quincy Basin was filled with flood waters mostly arriving through Grand Coulee and the Telford-Crab Creek Scabland Tract via Crab Creek. Some spillover from the Cheney-Palouse Scabland Tract also entered the basin through east-west coulees. The flood water drained out of the basin in four places that will be visited on this car Caravan Tour – Crater/Lynch Coulee, Potholes Coulee, Frenchman Coulee, and Drumheller Channels. Stops are also planned for Moses Lake, the Ephrata Fan, Soap Lake, Lower Moses Coulee, West Bar, and Babcock Bench.
