AGW14 Columbia Plateau Grasslands

from $54.00
A basalt butte towers over a grassland of fiddleneck and peppergrass in Eastern Washington’s Columbia Basin. This area, known as the Channeled Scablands, were formed during the end of the last Ice Age as catastrophic floods washed across this landscape 18,000 to 15,000 years ago. These massive floods (there may have been about 100 of them), caused by failure of ice dams holding back 3,000 square mile ancient Glacial Lake Missoula in northern Idaho and western Montana, had a flow of 10X the combined flow of all the rivers of the world. Today, these peaceful grasslands are home to cattle and wildlife. This image is available for the following products: Metal Prints, Acrylic Wall Prints and Giclee Fine Art Prints. Price includes shipping to USA and Canada
