All right. Let's see what's next. Okay. So here's like the wreckage of the late Pleistocene world lie in massive heaps strewn throughout the pathways of the great cosmic floods. So this is the outwash from Grand Coulee that I was talking about. And you got mile after mile of this stuff. So prior to the flood, this was all part of the bedrock.

Now what's interesting is you look right down there towards the left-hand corner, you see all this dark basalt rock, and then you've got that lighter colored. That's granite from Canada. Really? Yeah. Huh. So that to me is a very important clue as to where this origin, origination of this water actually came from. All right, let's move on. So this is the outflow of Lake Missoula.

This is the Clark Fork River Valley, Lake Pend Oreille up there. This is the northern panhandle of Idaho. So the lower Clark Fork River Valley and eastern part of Lake Pend Oreille. The ice dam, which is what the current explanation for the flood is, was that it was a lake formed behind an ice dam. And I reject that idea for multiple reasons. Right, right.

The ice dam is presumed to have been a sublobe of the glacier filling the area of Lake Pend Oreille and extending up the Clark Fork approximately to the dashed lines. And I don't know if you can see, but there's two, you see a red dashed line? Yeah. Okay, so that's, see there's a, look, right there, okay, back up.

So right there, you can see you've got a constricted valley and then it opens into a basin, right? There we go. Good. Thank you, Ryan. So this is the Bonneville flood, which originated in Utah.

Okay. Yep. Um, So the Bonneville flood is a giant flood that originated from the outburst of Lake Bonneville. Lake Bonneville, have you ever heard of Bonneville salt flats? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, that's the flat mineral content that was the bottom of Lake Bonneville that was 1,000 feet deep. temporarily rose up to 1,000 feet.

If you're ever in Salt Lake, if you look at the Wasatch Mountains to the east of Salt Lake City, you can see the shorelines of Lake Bonneville 1,000 feet above the valley floor. It breached a soft sedimentary rock dam in the north perimeter of the lake. And this flood burst out and carved out the modern-day Snake River over deep in Tell's Canyon, which is the deepest canyon in North America.
