Photo Of The Day By Bob Faucher

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Seasonal Cataract” by Bob Faucher. Location: Palouse Falls State Park, Washington.

“Heavy Spring runoff results in a seasonal cataract on the Palouse River,” explains Faucher. “These falls and the canyon downstream are an important feature of the channeled scablands created by the great Missoula Floods that swept periodically across eastern Washington and the Columbia River Plateau during the Pleistocene epoch.”
