Yes, that’s Videos-11, not Oceans Eleven.
These are some videos that illustrate some of the ideas discussed in the articles and poems in Salish Magazine issue number 11.
First, here’s a video featuring local legend Hugh Shipman discussing how our beaches formed and how they continue to change.
In our next video, Central Washington University Geologist Nick Zentner shows some of the geologic history of the region around Seattle. Of course big players in that history were ancient ice sheets that visited the region.
This second video with Nick Zentner goes a little further afield, discussing the ice age lakes of the region between Seattle and the Cascade Range.
Lastly, we’re repeating here the video that is also in the article “An Icy Past” in this issue. In this video, geologist Greg Geehan shows the landscape carved by glaciers 17,000 years ago. This 2 minute extract comes from just one chapter in an entrancing two hour video: The Geological Formation of Bainbridge Island. Find out about other chapters, by visiting bainbridgegeology.com
