Video offers aerial view of coulees

Geologist Bruce Bjornstad recently released a visually stunning video highlighting the Great Blade near the Lake Lenore caves located between Soap Lake and Coulee City. The video is the 11th in a series exploring the geological impact of the Missoula Ice Age Floods.

Using a drone, Bjornstad captures aerial views of the region, offering a unique, birds-eye view of the coulees that we call our home. The videos are complemented by new age music and facts that explain, among  other things, how glaciers and floods shaped the region.
