SUMMARY:Bretz Was Right: A Pre‑Birthday Floods‑Fest
DESCRIPTION:Save the date! \nOur chapter is planning a special late‑summer gathering on Saturday\, August 29\, in honor of J Harlen Bretz\, whose birthday falls just a few days later (September 2). Bretz’s groundbreaking work on the Ice Age floods reshaped the scientific understanding of the Northwest—and we think that deserves a celebration. \nWe’re still shaping the details\, but expect a relaxed\, community‑friendly event that highlights Bretz’s legacy and the remarkable landscapes he helped the world understand. More information will be posted as plans develop. \n \n \n  \nHe mapped the scablands bold and bright\,\nSaid “Floods did this!” with all his might.\nFor thirty years they told him “No”…\n’Til evidence began to flow. \nSo join us as we celebrate\nThe man who made the floods make sense —\nA pre‑birthday bash for J Harlen Bretz\,\nWho proved the skeptics wrong (immense!). \n \n

SUMMARY:Mysteries of the Channeled Scablands and the two Detectives who Solved it.
DESCRIPTION:Giant Pothole near Washtucna\, WA\nOver 100 years ago\, scientists discovered the unique landscape of the Channeled Scablands of Washington. By studying clues in Montana\, Idaho\, Washington\, and Oregon\, two of them pieced together the evidence that led to their conclusion which was scoffed at by many of their colleagues. After more than 20 years of field study and overwhelming evidence\, most of the scientific community finally agreed with them.  \nSee how today\, new detectives are in the field with new technologies to unravel more of the mysteries of the Channeled Scablands.  \nLloyd Stoess\, President of the Palouse Fall Chapter of the IAFI\, will show pictures and explain the evidence of the enormous Missoula Floods that carved our landscape.  \n
