SUMMARY:Prospector Antoine Etienne and the Flora of Etienne Creek
DESCRIPTION:Washington Native Plant Society Wenatchee Valley Chapter Presents: Prospector Antoine Etienne and the Flora of Etienne Creek \nThis is a zoom event. \nProgram Description \nIn 1860\, a black prospector named Antoine Etienne mined for gold in Peshastin Creek and the creek that now bears his name.  Reports claim that he found $1\,100 worth of gold\, which would be worth over $100\,000 today.  Who was Antoine Etienne?  In this presentation we will explore what we know about this fascinating Washington pioneer\, and trace his travels from Oregon City\, to the Wenatchee Valley and Entiat\, and then to Prosser.  We will also look at the area’s mining history and how Etienne Creek was renamed in 2009.  And of course we will learn about the flora!  In 2010\, Julia Bent and WNPS Fellow Don Knoke compiled a plant list which is now up to 210 species\, and as you will hear\, there is still lots to discover.  Etienne Creek was the destination for two chapter field trips last year.  Don Schaechtel will walk us through the mining history and flora of this local gem. \nPresenter Bio \nDon Schaechtel lives in Leavenworth and is a past president of both the Washington Native Plant Society and the Wenatchee Valley chapter of the WNPS.  Last year\, Don took an interest in the life of pioneer Antoine Etienne.  He discovered a fascinating story\, which he will share with us. \nYou can register in advance for this presentation here: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_mjMdijduS2G7-xkw7iFkpQ

SUMMARY:The Geology of Yellowstone Country
DESCRIPTION:The Wenatchee Valley Erratics\, Ice Age Floods Institute’s next Zoom program will be on Tuesday\, February 8 at 7:00 PM. Dr. Rob Thomas\, Regents Professor of Geology at the University of Montana\, will discuss “The Geology of Yellowstone Country” \nThe Yellowstone Plateau volcanic field is one of the largest\, most violent volcanic regions on earth. Over the last 17 million years\, the “Yellowstone hot spot” has left a track of volcanic scars and deposits as the North American plate slowly moves southwest across this giant source of heat. To understand the geology of the Yellowstone region\, however\, we must understand the geologic history of Yellowstone Country from the beginning. So\, in this presentation we will explore not only the active volcanic center\, but also the 4 billion years of geologic history that preceded it. \nDr. Thomas co-authored the second editions of “Roadside Geology of Yellowstone Country” (2011) and “Roadside Geology of Montana” (2020). \nZOOM link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84812873290?pwd=ejZyakNZeE1KMlNHQnZxVEZDMXhyQT09

SUMMARY:Discover Pass Free Day!
DESCRIPTION:Washington State Parks has designated the free days in 2022 when visitors will not need a Discover Pass to park at state parks and on recreation lands managed by Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). \nWednesday\, March 9 is Billy Frank Jr.’s birthday. \nBilly Frank Jr. (1931-2014) was an environmental activist and former chair of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission. His lifelong dedication to protecting endangered salmon and restoring justice for the Nisqually Tribe helped shape Washington’s environmental laws and expanded treaty rights for Native Americans nationwide. He was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2015. \n“Billy Frank Jr. Day is a day to be outside giving back to Mother Earth\,” said Frank’s son\, Nisqually Chairman Willie Frank III. “I do believe my dad wouldn’t want us to take the day off. He would want us to be out replanting trees or cleaning up the riverbanks. This is a day for the state of Washington to feel a little bit of Billy Magic.” \nFor more information click here. \n
