From Monday, October 12 to Friday October 16 the Earth Stewards: Sustainable Living in a Threatened World Program took a field trip to the Columbia River, two dams and the Scab lands area. Led by Professors Rob Cole and Robert Smurr we visited various locations in in the Columbia River area in Central Washington. The focus was on the Columbia River, the effects of the dams on the "natural" environment and on the salmon as well as the effects of the great Missoula Lake Floods and how they formed the region. The first night we stayed at Brooks Environmental Learning Center. It was bitterly cold and it snowed in the morning. The remaining days we stayed at Banks Lake Resort. This was a posh resort near Grand Coulee Dam.
