Mystery of the Mega Flood
There is a large terrain called the scablands filled with valleys and
hills which looks like it was made by water. It was a mystery about the
scablands and how they were formed, located 200 miles east of Seattle.
There was no evidence of any flowing water. A geologist, J Harlen
Bretz, believed the scablands had come about by a huge flood. People
didn't agree with Bretz and thought what he was talking about was pretty
absurd. However one person, Joseph Thomas Pardee teamed up with Bretz
to figure out if he was right. Padree did find an area in Montana where
a lake had been and he started to believe that if a glacier had broken
near the scablands then that area would have been able to create valleys
and hills. The big problem here was that the dam was a massive ice
berg, and many doubted that it would break. However, later this whole
mystery was later discovered when a similar dam located in Iceland
broke.
