SUMMARY:Palisades Park Hike led by Michael Hamilton
DESCRIPTION:The 3-mile hike will be led by IAFICS board member geologist Michael Hamilton. It will take place along Rimrock Drive\, which has spectacular views of Spokane and the Spokane Valley. The Glacial Outburst Flood Story will include a lot of “arm-waving\,” pointing out flood features both along the trail and with views to the east. The geology discussion will include details of another kind of flood that hit the Spokane area 14 million years ago. The hike will then cut to the west along one of the park’s trails to find mysterious Mima mounds\, and then loop back to the parking area. \n

SUMMARY:Cheney-Spokane Chapter Hike – Saturday 3/30 at 10AM – Escure Ranch / Towell Falls
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for a moderate 6-mile hike to explore the Ice Age floods features in the Escure Ranch area south of Sprague\, WA. The round trip hike follows a gravel road along the Rock Creek drainage and climbs about 100 feet over a small divide and back down to Towell Falls. On the way there you will drive past sculpted Palouse ‘islands’ downstream of Rock Lake\, and on the hike near Towell Falls is an Ice Age Floods gravel bar that has been incised by a stream to show its interior structure. The hike will be led by IAFICS board members\, geologists Donald Chadbourne and Chris Sheeran. \nAfter confirming your registration we will send you the hike details and keep you up-to-date on any changes that happen before the hike.
