On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods
by Bruce Bjornstad
A Keokee Guidebook
From the back cover:
During the last great Ice Age some 15,000 years ago, the Pacific Northwest was repeatedly decimated by cataclysmic floods unlike anything in modern times. Giant walls of ice-laden water - miles wide and hundreds of feet deep - raced over the land at speeds up to 80 mph, scouring the landscape and leaving a fascinating geological record. This book explores those legendary floods, explains the features they created, and guides readers to trails and tours in the Mid-Columbia Basin to witness the floods' awesome power for themselves.
Explantions of 19 types of landforms
Guides to 70 flood formed features
Thirty off-road hiking and biking trails
Five driving tours and two aerial tours
