    Amazing story. I've said it before, if I had a restart button I would have studied to be a geologist and spent my life looking for clues in the area of the country that I love so much, the Pacific Northwest.

    Pete Santellino recently visited Navajo Nation. Their land is similar to Washington State. He did a series on Native people. Very enjoyable. 😁

    Now, wait. People lived 70,000 years ago, although in a primitive fashion. But that graphic at the end was haunting.

    Nick, I know you mostly focus on central Washington and rightfully so. Have you ever produced any work on lake Pend Oreille, it’s depth and it’s relation to the Purcell trench? Why did lake Missoula flood waters released by receding ice sheets travel north instead of what seems to be a clear route through Spokane and down the Spokane River drainage to the Columbia?

    Love the prefix, 'Super'. Such an elegant word, that implies so much...
    Do I care to see one? Not really..

    Nick, are there other locations in the West with this much lava deposited from the eruption?

    Wait a moment. The Toba super-eruption occured ~74,000 year ago.
