SUMMARY:Cheney-Spokane Chapter Fishtrap Lake Field Trip / Hike
DESCRIPTION:Fishtrap Lake\, Washington (BLM Photo)\n \nCome join us for a 5-mile hike to explore the Ice Age floods features in the Fishtrap Lake area east of Sprague\, WA! \nThe Cheney-Spokane Chapter of the IAFI is scheduling a hike at Fishtrap Lake on Saturday\, October 14th. The hike will be led by Don Chadbourne and Chris Sheeran\, geologists and board members of the Cheney-Spokane Chapter. \nDescription of Fishtrap Lake Hike\nWe will begin and end at the Fishtrap Lake South Loop Trailhead. The hike will follow the South Loop trail\, with a total length of about 5 miles. The trail is mostly single track over dirt and rock\, with an elevation gain and loss of about 500 feet. Along the way we will have an intimate view of the channeled scablands that were carved out by the ice age floods and see features including pothole lakes\, rock benches\, Mima mounds\, kolks\, and streamlined and scarped Palouse hills. The hike will also provide wide open views of Fishtrap Lake and the surrounding country. This hike is included in On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods – Northern Reaches\, by Bruce Bjornstad & Eugene Kiver\, but we will be following trails that were constructed after the book was published. \nDirections to the trailhead\nFrom I-90 take Exit 254 and proceed south 3.6 miles on the Sprague Highway. Turn left (east) on Miller Ranch Road and proceed 0.2 miles to the “T” at the Miller Ranch house. Turn right (south) and drive 0.8 miles to the trailhead parking lot. There is a vault toilet at the parking lot. (Google Maps Link: https://goo.gl/maps/9Zz7nwdwziMzHYh69 map coordinates: 47.33381100925525\, -117.863529217959) \nThe hike will be limited to 20 hikers. \nItems to bring with you: appropriate shoes\, day pack\, water\, snacks\, appropriate clothing for changes in the weather\, sun protection\, emergency items\, camera and binoculars. Walking poles will be helpful. \nThe hike is free; however\, donations for support of Chapter activities will be accepted. For additional questions contact Don at 509-891-5875.

DESCRIPTION:FIELD TRIP LEADERS: Lloyd Stoess\, Palouse Falls Chapter President and Jacqui Hair\, Palouse Falls Chapter Vice President. \nDESCRIPTION OF FIELD TRIP: This tour will visit much of the area covered by the temporary drainage known as Lake Lewis.  At its maximum\, the lake was over 1000 feet deep\, with only a few “Lake Lewis Isles” rising above. Icebergs and other floating debris (including mammoth carcasses) drifted into quieter waters and ran aground along the shorelines of these islands\, leaving behind boulders of exotic rock types (erratics) from hundreds of miles away.  Ice Age flood site features will include\, but are not limited to:  Devils Canyon; Washtucna Coulee; Coyote Canyon Mammoth Dig Site; Lakes Lewis Isles; and the White Bluffs. \nCHECK-IN: Your name badge and field guide will be available at the following times and locations: \nSaturday October 7th: Prior to departure at the Washtucna High School. \nWHERE TO MEET: Washtucna High School\, 730 Booth Ave.\, Washtucna\, WA           >> Parking is available on site. << \nBUS LOADING: A chartered bus will begin loading at 8:45 a.m.; buses leave promptly at 9:00 a.m.  \nBuses will return around 5:00 p.m.. Restrooms are available at some stops. \nCANCELLATION: Cancellation refunds will be made only if field trip registrar\, Jacqui Hair\, receives notice no later than September 24 and vacancies can be filled from a stand-by list. Jacqui can be reached at jacquihair05@gmail.com or (509) 301-0007. \nITEMS TO BRING WITH YOU: Binoculars\, camera\, sunglasses\, and clothing for variable weather conditions. \n\n\n\n$125* field trip fee– Registering as a non-Ice Age Floods Institute Member\n\n\n$110* field trip fee– Registering as a Ice Age Floods Institute Member. \nIf joining now or renewing as an IAFI member\, also include your IAFI Membership Application with your field trip registration\, fees and liability release form. Please write one check to IAFIPF for registration and a separate check to IAFI for membership fee.\n\n\n$95* field trip fee – Registering as a Palouse Falls Chapter Ice Age Floods Institute Member (thank you for your support!)\n\n\n\n*FIELD TRIP FEE covers: 1) outstanding and knowledgeable field trip leaders\, 2) a very detailed and well-illustrated Field Trip Guidebook\, 3) delicious lunch\, snacks\, and drinks\, and 4) comfortable deluxe chartered bus with microphone system for lectures while in route. \nRegistration and liability forms are available for download.

SUMMARY:Deep Lake Potholes Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join Sun Lakes-Dry Falls State Park Rangers for an eye opening field trip to the Deep Lake Potholes in Sun Lakes State Park on Saturday\, Sept 16. We will meet in the Deep Lake parking lot at 10:00 AM. Discover Pass is Required. \nYears ago\, Tom Foster blogged about his visits to these incredible potholes: \nI must have stood at this spot for 15 minutes Saturday – Amazing Ice Age Flood features surrounded me. In this shot the pothole\, massive butte and hanging coulee all help one visualize the awesome power of the Ice Age Floods. I’m impressed with the large basalt overhang near the skyline. In Bruce Bjornstad’s book “On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods” he describes this undercutting process that was key to the formation of vertical faces in recessional cataracts. \nThe Interpretive Master Plan for the Ice Age Floods in Washington State Parks describes this group of kolk carved depressions – “Another spectacular feature is a tight cluster of the deep potholes beyond Sun Lake just west of Deep Lake. These potholes lie along the valley bottom and require only a 5-10 minute walk from the road.” \n \n \nI’d also like to mention that a fall into one of these potholes could be fatal!
