I was there with you in your backyard with your green chalkboard and your iphone in the spring of 2020, isolated in our own worlds with our blessed computers. I am still here with you. This lecture is a lovely summary of so many hours spent on KZread live. Thank you for all of this...

Me too, from the high country of Arizona. I was going to post something making the points you did, but you did it sooner and better. Nick is a treasure.

Me 4! Nick himself wether he realizes it or not it wouldn’t matter what subject he was focusing on its he himself that is the secret sauce at the restaurant.

Oh man! Another outstanding presentation by Professor Zentner! What a tribute to Professor Bretz. Such a nice way to tie a bow on your lecture Nick with that awesome letter . A toast to you. What a great season of ice age floods.

Excellent Nick. On a humorous note, when I first encountered your videos, you were talking regularly about a "Skye Cooley". Well I must've spent four hours scouring google maps looking for this Skye Coulie- presumably some rock formation carved out by the Spokane or Missoula floods!! 😬🙄

Seems like an example of Name Determinism to me! He was born to be a geologist!

It's admirable Nick's enthusiasm continues to make this geology accessible to us in plain language. Thank you, Nick!

I had no interest in geology until I happened to come across one of Nicks videos. Now, I have a whole series of books and playlists dedicated to the subject. Thank you, Nick, for allowing us to journey with you across the pacific north west and our beautiful Earth.

I've been amazed at the way this all blew up from a fairly simple exploration of a not-so-simple question into a massive exploration of science-history.

“It’s a geology talk about people, a hundred years ago and today.” I love that! Thank you Nick!!!

BEAUTIFUL presentation from an amazing man! Thank you for all you do for the public...

Outstanding presentation, Nick. The winter A-Z kept me riveted, and I became convinced you are on the right track. Logically speaking, it makes no sense to say everything happened within the last 20,000 years of a 2 million year event that was the last ice age. You are an example of why it is so important to ask questions regarding the accepted science.

I'm 2/3rds through and think this is approaching what they give those medal things in Stockholm for. For Nick and all the folks involved.

I know nothing about geology - except what I've learned from Nick Zenter. He is far and away the finest teacher I've ever watched. But we did not have so many videos from you, Nick , these last few months, not sure why. Hope you will still post in the summer.

Love Nic Z as well. I happen to live in Washington state and have been to many of these places which is pretty cool. Another amazing geology teacher and YT channel is (Myron Cook). Highly recommended his channel. He lives and mostly talks about the Rocky Mountain area and is out in the field for the videos

EXCELLENT AS ALWAYS! I’M A RETIRED SURGEON NEAR SAN FRANCISCO, AND LOVE THE MISSOULA FLOOD STORY. CAN’T WAIT TO DRIVE THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE FLOOD FROM MONTANA TO ASTORIA. INTERESTED IN THE SPOKAN FLOOD(S) .

Nick! I looked forward to your backyard classes during the Pandemic … they were the perfect antidote for those lockdown days. And I learned so much! Loved your outdoor field trips with awesome geologists like Kathy Troost and others. Being a part of the Professional Geology community is a beautiful way to live. THANKS NICK

Wiw the letter from Waters to Bretz made me teary-eyed so thoughtful and wise

What a fun presentation on how to do research and pull together lots of enthusiastic, free labor via KZread! Thanks for enriching so many lives Nick!

Big difference between “free” and labor of love for the good of the community. What a terrific group!

Good evening from east coast Australia 👋

I really appreciate your presentation and content. Thank you from Australia.

Nice work Nick! I’d bet Washington became an even more wondrous place for the Oregonians in that audience. Thanks!

A 5 star talk. Just fantastic!

Hi from the Okanagan, British Columbia. Thank you, Nick!

Thank You Nick for a wonderful presentation of my home country where I used to hunt pheasants with my Grandpa

Thanks for sharing this. I think I'll watch it a second time to absorb it better. (My husband Blair A. Csuti did some work with University of Oregon and Washington he did environmental and Mammology) work)

I was attracted by the beauty of the PNW and wanted to photograph it.. your videos and all deals of informations has made it the more fun and incredible to want to be here and continue to photograph. Thank you Nick!

Still think thatI have been spoiled by you and your crew’s productions from Eburg campus. But hey, I’ll be happy to hear a lecture from you darned near anywhere.

I love thees Lectures, Thank You Nick ❤️

Wonderful 🏆 🏆 🏆... thank you, dear professor nick!!!

Watching the animation of the flood waters coming over dry falls,amazing !,and it occurs to me that the terrain would have looked much different before the flood came through. I have an image in my mind of a flat surface being eaten back by the waters , it’s fascinating stuff !

@aaafire1776

And then consider the water would have been hundreds of feet deeper than the animation. Mind blown 😮

No one could watch this and not be impressed by your enthusiasm and understanding of the subject . You keep stating that you are not the Geologist but rather the Teacher; and what a magnificent teacher you are! Thanks again from Down Under where such topics are novelty.

I caught this a few days ago when it first posted to GSOC's KZread channel to which I also subscribe. As always a great presentation by Nick. I am looking forward to the upcoming videos Nick will be putting out this summer. Especially the ones (hopefully) where he and other glacial researchers are re-examiming the Spokane area for evidence of the Spokane ice sheet. i can't seem to get enough geology in lately. Thankful for Nick and others to have embraced using KZread as a way to get geology to a larger audience.

Excellent presentation

Great synopsis, Nick; thanks so much!

Superb presentation.

❤❤❤ Good morning! Will finish later!

earth shattering ,thanks

I have been wondering how much eastern cascades glacial activity have contributed to these floods...love your presentations Nick

Thanks for all the content. When I terraform Mars I’ll keep this in mind

Good morning from kingman az

My daughter lives a quarter mile from bretz house in Seattle

Could the aquifer that creates The Great Lakes, when beneath The Ice Sheet, in a vast cavernous sub-glacial Lake been a source for a westward flooding across Washington toward the Pacific ocean?

How would a person prove/disprove that lake Missoula could have depressed the area to the West and some water would have flowed across Thompson Pass? There are definitely glacial till and rounded glacial boulders in the area.

One geologist stated that some rocks found along prichard creek and placer gulch came from Montana.

I'm more interested in the cycles. It seems cyclical how ancient civilizations are ALWAYS BURIED under miles or feet of sediment. Be vigilant 😮

Too bad J.H.B. didn't consider COMET impacts on ice as the BIg water source. Ice + ice × heat ×n = unusually timed Start / unusually timed end of the last ice age.
