And he had discovered evidence because of sediment on the floor and high shorelines that there had once been a giant lake there, right? That these mountain basins held this giant lake. 34 years later, roughly... He publishes his second paper and this paper is entitled unusual currents in Lake Missoula.

His evidence for unusual currents was, as you're seeing right here, these are gigantic current ripples slowly scrolled in the north, Ryan. Yeah, and look what you've got here. You've got a huge flow coming straight down. Then you've got a flow kind of coming that's flowing to the southwest. And you can see, I mean, you can see these giant ripples.

Some of these ripples are the height of a five-story building. The wavelength is 300, 400 feet sometimes. You have farms that are sitting in the troughs of those ripples, and you can't see over them. Well, this was a gigantic flow that came from the north, obviously melt water. And how do you explain this? Well, you can't deny that this is a gigantic flood that came through here.

But again, what's not happening is that this flow is being correlated, say with the giant flow that came down through Minnesota or North or South Dakota or farther east. Because see what we're seeing with LIDAR now is that there are giant ripple trains all over the place.

I mean, we're beginning to see, you know, see, it took J. Harlan Bretts 20 years or more traversing the eastern Washington to be able to map the scab lands. What we can see now in an instant, in an instant from satellite survey.

Now, of course, we've got digital elevation models, we've got LIDAR, we've got ground penetrating radar, we've got all of these tools at our disposal that can increase our ability to perceive the planet. And what we're discovering is that the whole planet has engraved into it evidence of these gigantic catastrophic events. Things that we couldn't see a generation ago, we're able to see now.

And so one of the things that I'm trying to do is trying to confer upon people the ability to see this stuff, to know that there's this epic story engraved into the surface of this planet that's been waiting 12,000 years to get deciphered. And now we're in this unique perspective where we can actually begin to put the pieces together.
