SUMMARY:JT Pardee and the Lake He Discovered - Talk by Bill Burgel
DESCRIPTION:The Wenatchee Valley Erratics Chapter’s next program will be Tuesday\, February 13 at 7:00 PM. Our speaker will present live at the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center\, 127 S. Mission\, Wenatchee. There is also a Zoom link so one can watch remotely: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84520197937 Webinar ID: 845 2019 7937. \nJoseph T. Pardee\nBill Burgel is coming up from Portland to tell us about “Joseph T. Pardee and Glacial Lake Missoula.” Pardee was a USGS Field Geologist whose expertise was in Western Montana\, where he was raised and worked for years. He was the first to recognize\, around 1910\, the features of a vast\, ancient Glacial Lake Missoula. \nIn the 1920s\, working independently of Pardee\, Harlan Bretz had determined from field evidence\, that only an extraordinarily huge flood\, or floods\, could have carved out the Channeled Scablands and the big coulees associated with them in eastern and central Washington. But he didn’t know the source of the water. Pardee quipped that he “knew the source of Bretz’ water.” In 1925\, he suggested to Bretz that the draining of a glacial lake could account for the magnitude of water flows needed to create the Scablands and coulees. \nThe program is free\, and open to the public.\n—- \nBill Burgel worked in the railroad industry for 40 years\, in engineering and operations. With his background and training in geology\, he was often called upon to resolve landslide issues and rerouting studies\, earthquake warning strategies\, and to conduct long tunnel analyses. \nContact information:\nBrent Cunderla – Erratics Chapter President\ncunderla@nwi.net  (509) 860-6067 \nSusan D.

SUMMARY:Dr. Scott Burns - Ancient Ice Age Floods Before the Missoula Floods
DESCRIPTION:Come and Learn About The Unfolding Story of Ancient Ice Age Floods in the Pacific Northwest \nAges End – Stev Ominski\nWe have had Ice Age Floods in the Pacific Northwest over the past 2.8 million years. We mostly concentrate on the last ones which are called the Missoula Floods that happened between 15\,000-20\,000 years ago. But there is an unfolding story in the Pacific Northwest of many Ice Age Floods before the Missoula Floods. Erica Medley\, an MS student of Scott Burns\, did her thesis on the topic and discovered many outcrops of these ancient floods which are rarely discussed. Dr. Burns will talk about these oft-forgotten floods and the very interesting story of these neglected Ancient Ice Age Floods in the Pacific Northwest \nCome and learn more about these very interesting older Ice Age Floods\,\nThursday\, Feb. 15\, 2024 at 7:00 PM (Pacific Time)\nLive at Tualatin Heritage Center\, 8700 SW Sweek Dr.\, Tualatin\, OR 97062\nOr on Zoom – Click here to join via ZOOM\nMeeting ID: 827 0148 6070 Passcode: 265961 \nDr. Scott Burns taught geology for 54 years in Switzerland\, New Zealand\, Washington\, Colorado and Louisiana before coming in 1990 to Portland State University. He loves talking about the geology of the Pacific Northwest and this subject that is so many times neglected.\nProfessor Emeritus of Engineering Geology\, Portland State University\nPresident IAEG (International Association of Engineering Geologist and the Environment)\nMember Board of Directors\, Lower Columbia Chapter Ice Age Floods Institute.\nCo-Author revised Second Edition: “Cataclysms on the Columbia”\nEmail: BurnsS@pdx.edu Telephone: (503} 725-3389 Website: http://dr-scott-burns.com

SUMMARY:Cheney at the Head of Channeled Scablands
DESCRIPTION:In this overview\, learn about the history of the Channeled Scablands. We look back to around 20\,000 years ago at the end of the last glacial maximum and at the formation of two huge\, glacially dammed\, meltwater glacial lakes—Missoula and Columbia. We explore the subsequent failures of the Lake Missoula ice dam\, which resulted in a series of megafloods that occurred between 18\,000 and 14\,000 years ago. Then\, we discuss the geologic and hydrologic factors that control lake formations from the Medical Lake area to Fish Lake.  \nPresented by Dr. Linda McCollum\, professor emeritus of geosciences at EWU and of the Ice Age Floods Institute

SUMMARY:Ice Age Floodscapes of the Pacific Northwest
DESCRIPTION:Ice Age Floodscapes of the Pacific Northwest: A photographic exploration \nGeologist and author Bruce Bjornstad will present a bird’s eye view of the Ice Age megafloods that impacted the Pacific Northwest as recently as 14\,000 years ago and shaped the landscape of the mid-Columbia basin. Bruce’s presentation will be a stunning picture show of amazing drone photos from all over the Pacific NW flood plain. This will be  a hybrid meeting\, live and livestreamed via ZOOM\, on Tuesday evening at 7PM. We will post it to Youtube after editing.  It will be great. \n \nBruce Bjornstad is a retired geologist with degrees from the University of New Hampshire and Eastern Washington University living in Richland\, Washington. During his career Bjornstad has written numerous documents and reports on the geology of eastern Washington as well as two geologic guidebooks “On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods” that tell of the transformation of the Pacific Northwest as recently as 14\,000 years ago. Bjornstad is also the creator of the online YouTube Channel  “Ice Age Floodscapes”. Most recently\, Bjornstad has published a new\, full-color\, coffee-table-style book titled: “Ice Age Floodscapes of the Pacific Northwest: A Photographic Exploration”. Bruce will have books available for purchase. \nThis presentation is free to attend. It begins at 7 pm\, Tuesday\, February 20\, at the REACH Museum\, 1943 Columbia Park Trail\, Richland\, WA\nOr join the Zoom Meeting\, 7PM – 8:30PM \nPlease note\, the Zoom link that was listed before Feb. 8 was a mistake\, the correct link is:\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88136774109?pwd=zLCbrWxCXIzqJ5TK2bNshKCtRCCaRh.1\nMeeting ID: 881 3677 4109\nPasscode: 726292

SUMMARY:The Spokane Aquifer: Legacy of the Ice Age Floods
DESCRIPTION:The Spokane Aquifer is a legacy from the giant Ice Age floods that roared through the Spokane Valley\, leaving behind a porous\, coarse gravel that hosts our communities’ water supply. The Aquifer story includes tales of fascinating\, unique geologic processes and community historical events that formed and harnessed this resource. \nPresented by Geologist Michael Hamilton from the Ice Age Floods Institute

SUMMARY:PNW in Brief: The Most Recent Ice Age Floods
DESCRIPTION:During this presentation\, we follow the path of the floods from western Montana across the Idaho Panhandle\, through the Columbia Basin and Gorge\, into the Willamette Valley and finally to the Pacific Ocean. We look at some of the major floods features found within the four-state area-features you can see out your windshield as you travel through the floods area. \nPresented by Dr. Gary Ford\, president of the Ice Age Floods Institute \nBrochures prepared by the Ice Age Floods Institute and National Park Service will be available. Books\, videos\, and maps on the floods will be available for purchase from the Cheney- Spokane Chapter of the Ice Age Floods institute.
