The fantastic story of the Bonneville Flood: a catastrophic megaflood from ~17,400 years ago

[@dalegray934]

As an archaeologist, I have surveyed much of the Bonneville Flood topography in southern Idaho. Spent several decades working in the Snake River Canyon around Auger Falls, the canyon near King Hill, and surveying powerline corridors across the Eden Channel basalt north of the canyon. The Bonneville Flood dominated much of my work since 1988. I currently live along the Snake in Owyhee County. Your presentation is a really good summation of what took me years to gather and added to my knowledge. Thank you.

[@shawnwillsey]

Hi Dale and thanks for watching. The flood is an amazing story and there is so much to learn. Glad you enjoyed this. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any future videos.

[@markfults1693]

I live close to the snake river in fruitland.. I remember going to salt lake and seeing the bath tub ring over 20yrs ago and learning a lil bit about Bonneville than I got interested in glacier lake Missoula floods.. now I dig gravel a few miles from the river and been curious if it was laid down during the Bonneville flood and what the water level was here during it..seems like most info stops at swan falls and starts again at hell's canyon with nothing in this area

This is the first video I've watched on this channel. Very cool! I'm just ordinary folk with no scientific knowledge of this nature. But I think that's why it's so fascinating.

[@ellenbryn]

It was actually your excellent vids like this one that drew me to your channel, as I try to learn more of the geology around Ogden where my parents moved in the 90s. I love how the ghost of lake Bonneville seems to reappear every now and then when there's a weather inversion, capping fog or haze at the level of the bench.

[@davebowles1957]

I've watched this a few times now because I think is extremely intriguing and I'm fascinated that someone a long time ago figured this out and then along comes someone like you to eplain it on video and can share it on something like KZbin... After the first time I watched this one I came across some other youtubers that try to explain this; no one even comes close to the level of detailing this as you do.

[@shawnwillsey]

Wow, thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@sewsweet502]

The first time I learned about the Bonneville flood was 5th grade,Rupert Idaho, I have been fascinated eversince . You did a great job on this video. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and expertise. I totally enjoyed it 😊 I will keep watching ❤

[@benjamintherogue2421]

I traveled through the southern region of Boise with an old military buddy I was visiting who lived in Boise years and years ago. It was something to see all of those giant rocks in person and wonder where they all came from. I read the information about the flood off of signs and other postings around the area, but seeing it here explained in so much more detail really makes the sheer size of the event come across. Thanks for all of the work to share this information with us!

[@monicacall7532]

Amazing story! My husband and I live at the base of Y Mtn. in Provo, Utah and the Bonneville Shoreline which has been made into a fabulous hiking/biking trail is right up the mountain from us. The higher shoreline isn’t as easy to see close up, but if you come around the Point of the Mountain just before I-15 goes downhill southward into Utah County you can clearly see it. I wasn’t aware that the Bear River once flowed into the Snake River. You make geology so fascinating and accessible. Many thanks.

[@swilsonmc2]

I grew up in the Mueller Park area of Bountiful and lived a few years in the Lookout Pointe apartments near you. I believe it was Lake Bonneville that tapered the land in such a way to allow for the building of house this high up on the hill. It makes for beautiful sunsets over the Great Salt Lake and Utah Lake.

[@Max-kn9yi]

This is fantastic. I am from Central Utah and I see the lasting effects from Lake Booneville in my area. It is jaw dropping to think of how much power this flood generated. Thank you for making this.

[@shawnwillsey]

You bet. I really think the Bonneville Flood may be one of the least publicized and known of Earth's great stories.

[@michaellimbert]

Thank you for covering this! I'm a rock climber, and I go bouldering in Swan Falls every weekend. I'm always in awe of the force required for a body of water to move such large boulders.

[@shawnwillsey]

Thanks for watching, Michael. I'm also a climber and Swan Falls is one of my favorite places along the flood's path. I'll do a video from the field next time I get out there. Stay curious!

[@cavelvlan25]

I'm guessing we're gonna get to see it ourselves in the very near future.

[@milowinstonsmith]

So I have the flood to thank for all those massive boulders I hide behind when playing paintball.

[@Michael-rg7mx]

The Eradicts, boulders transported from somewhere else. They move in water alot easier when they are dislodged from glaciers. Many will be found with a pile of small rock and sand around them. That was trapped in the ice clinging to the Eradict.

[@a.wenger3964]

Absoutely captivating! The powers of water and gravity are astounding. As a kid I used play for hours in sand and use a garden hose to flood the little lakes I made. The erosion patterns you show on the map remind me of these childhood memories but blown up to an apocalyptically massive scale.

[@Max-kn9yi]

[@robinwells8879]

Having learned some geology and geomorphology in geography, years ago at school, (I always enjoyed the maps bit more than the chaps bit!) I realised recently the joy I have experienced through the many years trying to interpret the scenery through which I have travelled. It’s only later that you realise what a gift that your favourite teachers give you.

[@Rat-Builder]

I live on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation, and I work for a farmer during harvest. He has some fields that are very sandy. If you look toward Pocatello from those fields, this is where the water flow would probably have started to slow and turn west. All of the new housing being put in place over the last couple of years in Chubbuck, is plagued by river run boulders the are sometimes as big as a small car. It is just 6 miles further that you find these very sandy fields. The Farmer has other fields that are about the same distance from Pocatello, but are further east, and these fields are no where near as sandy. I can see the things that you are describing as I travel around this area. Thank you for making this video. I always thought that Lake Bonneville went clear from Salt Lake City to Reno. I was shocked to learn that all of these years I was 100% wrong.

[@jackreisewitz6632]

Marveled for forty years at the Self declaring story of Lake Bonneville. But I never knew till now how and why it drained. Never knew about the Bear River getting diverted into it, and how that affected its growth and size. Geology of the last glacial age is so cool !!

[@barbclark69]

Thank you. What an interesting video. We passed through Twin Falls and marveled at the Shoshone Falls and that huge park. Seeing it here, it was a tiny part of the entire Bonneville Flood event. Thank you again.

[@emmilypalmer9269]

I used to hike in Melba, Idaho overlooking part of the Snake river, at the end of this flood and the boulders there are huge and the landscape as a result of it is so incredible.

[@shawnwillsey]

That's a great area to check out Bonneville Flood evidence.

I thought I'd read a lot or watched a lot of videos about Lake Bonneville, but none of them mentioned the rerouting of the Bear River. Thanks to KZbin randomly recommending your video about the Great Unconformity I also discovered this one. I live in Utah and have spent a little time in the West Desert, seeing the Bonneville shorelines, but now I'd love to travel the path of the Bonneville flood to see some of these areas in person.

[@garyjennyfrost9485]

Thank you for putting this video out there. I have been to every single place you mention many times over the years, except for Celebration Park. Now I'm going to have to visit is for the rocks and the petroglyphs. Your information helped me put all of this into perspective and explained how they came to be. I also love knowing how everything from the seemingly insignificant Bear river contributed to the rise of Lake Bonneville, then to the undoing of Lake Bonneville, the Higher benches, and to the deepening of the Snake River canyons going to Twin Falls and beyond. Very fascinating.

[@fredhearty1762]

I grew up visiting grandparents in Pocatello and fishing the Portnuef and Snake Rivers. Also crossed Utah on the salt flats over to Bonneville. Stopped at Twin Falls to view the Snake River Canyon last year. Your presentation has helped pull together the saga that only vaguely was known after years wandering the region. Thanks for your work.

I knew about Lake Bonneville, but had no idea how it drained until last week when listening to RadioWest's story about Utah Lake. Thanks for illustrating this because I was really amazed to learn that this was such a sudden event.

Thanks for watching this. Yes, the Bonneville Flood story is somehow way too under told and appreciated in my opinion.

[@stephendowds8211]

in my undergraduate days in Trinity College Dublin, I learned of the "parallel roads of Glenroy" in Scotland. They were one of the great mysteries of Victorian Britain; parallel lines around the valley sides following the contours. Eventually explained as shorelines of a lake hemmed into the valley by a glacier, the same as you discuss in this video. A great presentation. Thank you.

I really liked the video. Very well done and very well researched. I grew up in Bear River City at the bottom of Lake Bonneville and have for the past month been driving through Red Rock Pass almost daily commuting to a job so it's very interesting to me The scene at 3:44 the top half shows what is called Little Mountain which was the scene out my bedroom window as a kid. Looks just like it always did. THANK YOU!

[@shawnwillsey]

Thanks for sharing!

[@marcaudetmusicianandnorthr1956]

Really great account Shawn. I would love to see a similar portrayal of the catastrophic post-glacial flood events that happened in my area along the Ottawa River, Ontario, Canada. During deglaciation, a vast melt water lake breached it's eastern boundary through Fossmill Outlet, then other catastrophic floods occurred down the Ottawa River when the southern outlet of the same glacial lake (the outlet being the Mississippi River) became plugged. The flow features from these floods are interesting to see in the bush. Vast sand plains throughout the Madawaska, Bonnechere and Petawawa River valleys are other features from these floods.

[@JimSdkfz]

[@cherriemckinstry131]

So that means that the water in the area at some point. Possibly before the glacier melted and created all the effects on the landscape, there was sea life and salty water. Then a melted glacier carved through it as well.

[@EricFielding]

Great job on explaining the Bonneville Flood and its effects in Idaho. It is unfortunate that most people are seeing the lower resolution version since the higher resolution version is much better.

I really enjoyed the video thank you for the information.

[@chucklearnslithics3751]

So cool! I've heard about this so much but never seen it laid out to understand it all. Also didn't know about the bear river diversion... That was new info. Is there a good reference site for great basin lake maps? I've often wanted to study shoreline maps of the different periods and levels.

[@shawnwillsey]

Thanks Chuck. Not sure I know of a good reference for Great Basin lakes. Maybe search for Nevada pluvial lakes or Lake Lahontan (the other big lake, in western NV). If I find something, I'll let you know.

[@edencan]

I’ve never heard of this flood until I visited the Bruneau Sand Dunes! Amazing to see (and feel) in person! I still don’t understand it all…the tallest dunes in North America, right there! Yet the geology changes back to farmland once leaving.

As an undergraduate in the 70s I did fish population sampling along the White River of Nevada. It dried up about 17,000 years ago I guess and left a series of relic fish populations behind in warm springs in isolation along it’s old path. A lot of speciation occurred over the years.
