Aftermath of the Ice-Age Floods: A Bird's Eye View
Bruce Bjornstad
Bruce Bjornstad spoke at the Community Science and Technology Seminar Series event held on Tuesday, October 12, 2004 at 7 p.m. in the Columbia Basin College Theatre. Bruce spoke on the topic "Aftermath of the Ice-Age Floods: A Bird's Eye View."
Bruce took the audience on a journey to witness the amazing features left behind during a series of unique, Ice-Age, cataclysmic floods that permanently changed the face of the Pacific Northwest. Bruce showed the audience a view of the features from a bird's perspective, since many are best understood at great heights looking down.
