@futurebird the bursting of the dam of Glacial Lake Missoula at the end of the last Ice Age
@jaykaydee @futurebird Having lived many years in the "scablands" of Eastern Washington, where would your observation point be?
@jaykaydee @futurebird My bias is that watching the lake drain from a vantage point above Missoula would be the least dramatic. Clark's Fork Canyon would be exciting, https://www.nps.gov/parkhistory/online_books/geology/publications/inf/72-2/sec4.htm. But my bias is with the scablands ttps://www.nps.gov/parkhistory/online_books/geology/publications/inf/72-2/sec5.htm. As long as you are arranging to go back in time anyways, why not use a satellite for an overall view?
@Gaythia @jaykaydee @futurebird Looking across the Columbia in the direction of Chelan and seeing the way the far bank was long ago scrubbed away is a really impressive memory.
