* Explains the geologic natural history of the North Cascades * Appeals to hikers who are fascinated by the region, as well as amateur geologists * Authors are both geologists with the US Geological Survey Composed of everything from volcanic island arcs and deep ocean sediments, to parts of old continents and even pieces of the deep subcrustal mantle of the earth, Washington's North Cascade region is a true geologic mosaic. Here, authors Tabor and Haugerud reveal that the spectacular scenery of these mountains is matched by equally spectacular geology. Beginning with a summary of the geologic history of the North Cascades, the first section also offers the novice a primer on geologic terms and processes. The second section covers more than 150 accessible sites of geologic interest, arranged by reference to the rivers and streams of the range. Many new ideas about the rocks and geologic processes in the North Cascades are introduced, making this a must-read for those studying the region.

The primary purpose of this report is to describe the background information, methods and results of a surficial geology inventory within the North Cascades National Park Service Complex (NOCA). A secondary goal is to provide an overview of bedrock geology, climate and hydrology as they affect landform processes. The study area for this report is the Thunder Creek Watershed, which is defined as Thunder Creek and its tributaries. Thunder Creek flows north into Diablo Lake, a hydroelectric project located within NOCA.

Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 307. The Cascade Range is an active north-trending volcanic arc at the western edge of North America (Figure 1). At the northern end of the range, between 47°N and 49°N, the average elevation increases, peaks become sharper, numerous small glaciers survive on the higher slopes, and volcanic rocks of the Cascade arc are scarce. This region is the North Cascades Range. The North Cascades are bounded on the west by the fore-arc basin of the Puget Lowland, on the south by the arc volcanic rocks of the Central Cascades, and on the southeast by the back-arc flood basalts of the Columbia Plateau. The geologic identity of the range is not so clearly defined to the north, but it is geographically bounded on the northeast by the Okanogan Ranges and on the northwest by the Fraser River, which separates the Cascades from the Coast Mountains.

The geologic history of the Pacific Northwest is as unique as the region itself. Completely reorganized and revised, the Third Edition of Geology of the Pacific Northwest brings the area’s volcanism, earthquakes, tsunamis, and geologic environmental issues into sharp focus. William and Elizabeth Orr provide a singular perspective and explore the Pacific Northwest writ large, including Southeast Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and northern California. Descriptive and detailed photographs of the formations and terranes of each subregion are included, along with color plates that illuminate and expose the fundamental processes that shaped Pacific Northwest geology. The text reveals the geological origins, geographic features, phenomena, and natural resources of areas throughout the region. As urban development continues to expand in the tectonically active Pacific Northwest, environmental concerns and geologic hazards will grow more and more important. The authors’ central theme that continental plate tectonics are the fundamental processes of Northwest geologic history leads to deeper understanding of the region’s geology and new insights in volcanic eruption prediction, disaster preparedness, and the environmental effects of mining.
