valley is framed by ridges which were formed by the

ice age floods, one of the largest floods in history. These floods left dramatic sheer cliffs, deep canyons

and ancient lakes and filled the valley with deep, fertile soil enriched by volcanic deposits. Today’s

farmers grow an amazing variety of crops including

apples, peaches, cherries, sweet corn, wheat, onions, potatoes and wine grapes. Local area restaurants and wineries take advantage of this bountiful valley.

Come to the Quincy Valley. Rest in luxurious resorts

21. Lake Lenore Caves There are seven caves accessible by the

maintained trail. The area abounds with

other caves that are not on the established

trail. These caves were formed during the

Montana floods 12,000 years ago when the

area was inundated with rushing water from

the glacial Lake Missoula as ice damming the

lake melted. The caves are thought to have

been used by the Sinkiuse (sing-kee-ooz) Indi-

ans for habitat and storage. The Lake Lenore fish

hatchery is across the road. Lake Lenore is home

to the Lahontan Trout, a rare (not native) to the area

trout, and offers great fly fishing during the early

spring season. Rest rooms are across the highway at the fish hatchery.

22. Lenore / Alkali Lakes Wildlife Viewing Halfway between the highway and Lake Lenore Caves is an ADA

accessible crushed gravel trail to the north. Hike for 1/3 mile to an

overlook that is an excellent spot for observing waterfowl and shorebirds.

Coulee and extends to Coulee City. The reservoir is filled with water that is pumped up 280 feet from

Lake Roosevelt through giant tubes. Banks Lake Is

renowned for its great fishing, boating, swimming, and wildlife viewing. The marina offers great walleye fishing and annual bass tournaments. 64

far back into mountain valleys of western Montana. As the lake deepened leaks likely developed and

enlarged causing the dam to fail suddenly and release the full volume of the lake. This towering mass of water and ice, over 2,000 feet deep near the ice

dam, suddenly burst forth. It literally shook the earth as it thundered across the Columbia Basin, moving at speeds of up to 75 miles per hour.

carved areas of stark “scabland.” Flood waters carved

out more than 50 cubic miles of earth, depositing

some of it to create new landforms, while carrying

most of it far out into the Pacific Ocean. During the Ice Age, the cycle was repeated many times; the gla-

day and in the different seasons. Banks Lake now fills the bottom of the Grand Coulee.

31. Million Dollar Mile On Hwy 155, Mile Post 7, approximately 9 miles north

of Coulee City, huge cuts in the basalt walls of the Coulee allow Hwy 155 to raise from the floor of the

Grand Coulee to the top of the Coulee’s wall and then descend back to the floor. To accommodate the

formation of Banks Lake, the one-mile stretch of road

cost approximately one million dollars, a huge cost in 1948. The view from the road is one of defining scenes of the Coulee Corridor.

1922), a respected prophet and medicine man who

predicted the earthquake that shook the area in 1872. The Church was moved from the village of

Whitestone to avoid being destroyed when the Coulee Dam flooded the valley. Outside the church is a weathered tree trunk with a human figure carved into it. This figure, like others found on trees in the

Okanogan Valley, is spiritual and used for showing direction. Across the road from the Tribal Headquar-

Chief Smitkin in 1886. From a single log cabin, St. Mary’s grew into a junior college complete with dor-

mitories, hospital, museum, a band and baseball team. A 1919 fire destroyed the original college

buildings. Today, the old Mission buildings stand in

front of newly constructed school facilities and is known as Pascal Sherman Indian School – the only Indian boarding school in Washington State.
