Giant current ripples on Camas Prairie in NW Montana tell of a sudden and rapid draining of Glacial Lake Missoula - the source for colossal Ice Age floods that swept across parts of Idaho, Washington and Oregon.

This stuff is great. You and Zentner should be working together, if you're not. Keep making these videos.

The stunning beauty of your work is breathtaking.. the vastness and gentleness of your ariel shots, along with your onscreen descriptions.. helps me to understand what it was that I grew up seeing in the landscape of my amazing home state.

These ripples are as mind blowing as some of the more dramatic basalt features shown in other Ice Age Floodscapes videos...each video adds to the next. Thank you.

It’s one thing to read about it but here visually I understand and can connect with the gigantic currents encroaching on the ground

Can an ice dam hold back a thousand or more feet of water for an extended period of time? What length of time did the ice dam hold back the water for? It seems like the water, under enormous pressure would immediately begin to cut under the ice dam, and a small trickle of water would soon burst the dam. How did these ice dams last for what I assume would be decades for the lake to fill up?

The ice dam was several miles or more wide but also up to 30 miles long! Maximum depth of lake was ~2000 ft.

The map had a cross section of a ripple, very interesting. I imagine that heavier, denser material accumulated on the upstream edge?

It amazes me that the ripples are still there. In addition, of course, to the massive size of them.

Excellent. Educational and thought provoking. Thank you. Like other comments, beautifully and clearly presented. Question: Are the ripples influenced by the depth of the water? i.e. the bigger they are the deeper the water depth was - or the bigger they are the faster the water flowed?
@bjornstad51
@bjornstad51 3 года назад
Yes, the height and wavelength of ripples varies with speed and depth of the water.

I cannot even imagine the kinds of water flows required to cause something like this. Nature is amazing and scary at the same time.
