I attended the slide show presentation at The Museum of the Oregon Territory given by floods geologist and author of “On the Trail of the Ice Age Floods,” Bruce Bjornstad. I purchased an autographed copy of his book at the beginning of the evening. While the slide lecture was interesting I learned only a couple things that I did not know already. For example, the floods evidently created arches such as the Marlin Hollow Arch.
Bjornstad's book covers the 19 types of
landforms the floods created and offers a guide to 70 flood-formed features.
Included are 30 off-road hiking and biking trails, as well as five driving
tours and two aerial tours. Published by Keokee Books of Sandpoint, Idaho, the
320-page book includes 262 illustrations, a color plate section and a
comprehensive index.
