Some photos and video from the Scablands event, May 2021

Here is a photo montage from the amazing Contact at the Cabin event organized by the podcasting teams of the Brothers of the Serpent Podcast and the Grimerica Show, featuring Randall Carlson and Brad Young of Kosmographia, with Star Myth discussions and night-sky "star tours" presented by me, David Mathisen.

You can find many resources related to Randall's arguments about catastrophic flooding and the Younger Dryas Impact Theory at the Kosmographia website linked above, including the video linked here featuring Graham Hancock and Randall discussing geology in the vicinity of Soap Lake, Washington -- and its possible implications for humanity's ancient history.

Below I have embedded a short video which Ban Van Kerkwyck of UnchartedX made using footage from our expedition earlier this month:


And below are more images from this unforgettable trip to the absolutely stunning terrain of central Washington and the testimony that this region of the "Channelled Scablands" silently proclaims regarding cataclysmic events in our planet's ancient past. Most photos were taken by me, except where indicated.
