Description

There are some interesting things which are associated with the last Cascadia earthquake in 1700. Some in the scientific community are convinced that the Bonneville Slide, on the Columbia River, happened around the time of the last Cascadia quake. In that massive slide, Table Mountain, on what is now the Washington side of the river, was torn in half and the debris crashed across the river to what is now the Oregon side, to then dam up the river for a period of time. Some believe that this debris-dam across the river was the Bridge of the Gods which was spoken about by the Native Americans. Now, there is something to think about. For Table Mountain to be ripped apart and the debris thrown across the river, the quake had to be extremely powerful far inland, especially at this location in the Cascade Mountains. There are some who speculate that for the quake to be that powerful this far inland, the epicenter for the quake was possibly in the landmass and much further to the east than people commonly realize. Seeing what happened with Table Mountain and the Bonneville Slide, there are some who tend to believe that the epicenter for the 1700 Cascadia quake was possibly somewhere in the landmass, relatively close to the Cascade Mountains.
