SUMMARY:It’s all about the Timing\, Topography and [Rock] Type
DESCRIPTION:The Wenatchee Valley Erratics\, Ice Age Floods Institute’s next program will be on Tuesday\, October 11 at 7:00 PM at the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center. Brent Cunderla\, long-time Erratics’ president\, will discuss “It’s all about the Timing\, Topography and [Rock] Type.”Timing of the Pleistocene Cordilleran Ice Sheet with topography (Purcell Trench in northern Idaho\, and the Okanogan Valley) allowed blockage-forming glacial lakes. Ice dams created Glacial Lakes Missoula and Columbia. Break-up of ice dams caused lake flood waters to surge across eastern and central Washington to the Pacific Ocean\, in two to three days\, possibly 100 times over a few thousand years. The nature in which the basalt bedrock and deep loess soils were then eroded created the unique landscapes we see today in eastern Washington.Brent will highlight some of the Ice Age Floods pathways in north-central Washington\, emphasizing the Grand and Moses coulees and the Columbia Valley north of Wenatchee.  This is a bi-modal meeting. You can attend in-person at the Museum. If so\, please wear a mask to protect yourself and others. OR\, you can participate via a Zoom link on your computer at home:Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84812873290Passcode: erraticswebinar ID: 84812873290Please sign in at 7:00 PM\, October 11!

SUMMARY:(Online) Trees of the West with Molly Hashimoto
DESCRIPTION:Class Tuition: $10 \nThis event is hosted by the North Cascades Institute \nArtist and long-time Institute instructor Molly Hashimoto has appreciated trees all her life—they have shaped her as a hiker\, outdoors lover\, gardener\, traveler\, and artist. She pays homage to them through her art\, working in many different media\, each revealing different aspects of these stalwart companions: crisp lines\, imposing silhouettes\, and the subtle–or sometimes brilliant—hues of foliage. Hashimoto also delves into the process of creating art\, discussing the mediums she used in the featured pieces and the reasons she chose them\, as well as sidebars with tips and techniques. \nAs in her popular books Colors of the West and Birds of the West\, in her new volume Hashimoto emphasizes her personal experiences with nature\, telling stories about her encounters with trees everywhere from her backyard to national parks and forests throughout the West. She focuses primarily on native trees\, rather than cultivars\, with a special interest in 45 major species found across the region\, ranging from the stately Coast redwoods to the diminutive but distinctive Fishhook Barrel Cactus. And the Fall colors of the trees around the North Cascades Environmental Learning Center are one of her greatest inspirations! \nTo complement her in-person events related to the release of the book (including an October 16 event at Village Books in Bellingham)\, Molly will share her latest work with us in an exclusive online presentation. Participants will get to hear about the process of creating the book\, learn about her painting techniques through a live demonstration and hear personal reflections about her process and experience as a professional artist. \nRooted in place\, trees offer endless opportunities for observation\, admiration\, relaxation\, and inspiration. Trees of the West invites us to pause and appreciate these sentinels in all their quiet glory. \nFor more information click here.

SUMMARY:History of W.T. Clark's Highline Canal
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center \nLocation of event: The Historic Wells House \nIn the fall of 1901 W.T. Clark was asked to come to Wenatchee to build a gravity flow irrigation canal.  From Dryden\, the water flowed to Sunnyslope\, Wenatchee and Rock Island as well as across the Columbia River bridge to East Wenatchee.  It flowed for 34 miles without one single pump.  The Highline Canal was finished in 1903 and is still in use today. \nWaylon Marshall and Alice Meyer\, both from the Wenatchee Reclamation District\, will be at the Wells House on October 12 to talk about the history of the canal that was truly a lifesaver to orchardists then and now. \nThis one-hour talk starts at 6:30 and the cost is $10. \nPlease register here.
