Field Trip Date: Saturday, September 23, 2017
Destination: Blewett Pass and the Teanaway
area located in the Central Cascade Mts.
Please read the following information carefully!!!
The purpose of this field trip is to show the amazing evidences of Noah’s Flood based on the sedimentary layers, lava flows, and interesting rocks and fossils that can be found in the Blewett and Teanaway area off of Hwy. 97 between Cle Elum and Leavenworth, Wa. I will also be teaching on the gold mining history of this area and the two ghost towns, Liberty and Blewett, Wa. We will not be going into any of the gold mines, but I will show you where they are and discuss other interesting historical artifacts.
This field trip is good for anyone wanting to learn more about geology, gold mining, and Washington state history.

For those who haven't been on these trips, the cost is reasonable even for a poor person like me, and the value is great. Mark is always full of great information and I enjoy going in a group even though I normally hate groups. Maybe it's because I am a single mom and I always think I will plan cool trips like this, but in reality I am too busy to do it myself. So I know without this option, it wouldn't actually ever happen. I had just "discovered" Palouse Falls and said I wanted to go this year when this field trip was offered!

The field trip to the white bluffs was a great way to see God’s creation. Mark explained, in detail, the types of rock, formations, and other historical facts about the area. The hike was not difficult, and the beauty of the landscape was simply spectacular, showing clearly the catastrophic results of Noah’s flood and ancient Lake Missoula.
We look forward to your next field trip, Mark!

The videos and slide shows below are from a sponsored trip to the Grand Circle that makes up 5 states and has more parks within it than anywhere in the world. If your interest is in universal flood geology there is no place like Utah and Arizona to find it so graphically and explicitly. We tried to cram 6 months of exploring into 8 days. We woke out of bed almost every morning between 5 and 5:30AM. We ate on the run and did not get back to our hotel-rooms until 7 PM-8 PM each night. Our rented SUV looked like a war zone. Trip consisted of seeing the Wave at Paria, Slot Canyons (Wire Pass), Black Dragon Canyon, Sego Canyon, Red Canyon (part of Bryce Canyon), Escalante State park, Monument Valley, Arches, Anasazi Ruins, Dinosaur fossil hunting at Cooper Mill Canyon, Kodachrome Basin, Glen Canyon, Paw Hole and the Bonneville Salt Flats etc. The trip was awe inspiring biblically.
