Hell ROCKS!

I don't mean that like "Satan has a jammin' band" I mean it like "There are amazing rock formations in Hell's Canyon!" And some interesting stories to go with them!

Before there were tourists, before the miners, before the trappers, explorers and pioneers, this was the home of the Nimipoo - "the People." White settlers called them "Nez Perce" for no apparent reason as they did not pierce their noses. The Nimipoo have a legend about this area, one this young man tells beautifully with his own illustrations. Do go over to youtube (ick!) and give this a thumbs up for him!

When the pioneers came to this area, they discovered the pockets of ore those giants splashed all over the canyon and set about digging it up. The area is so remote and so inhospitable that even large lodes of silver, gold and copper could not make mining profitable. This sign disingenuously claims large trucks solved the transport problem. There are no large trucks running ore out of this canyon. There is almost no mining at all going on here, just a few campers panning here and there. Now many of the richest deposits are underwater, flooded by the dams that generate electricity for this part of the country.

Modern scientists have their legends about how this area was formed, too. They claim volcanic activity plus upthrusting shifts of the earth's crust created formations like this:

It is columnar basalt, or basalt crystals. They line both sides of these canyon walls. Where dirt has managed to find enough level ground to accumulate you cannot see them, but wherever the rock is exposed you will find these wonderfully geometric formations.

Here is a typical version of the legend modern science tells:
"How was Hells Canyon formed?
Most of the older rocks we see in the canyon came from underwater volcanoes when Hells Canyon's terrain glued themselves to North America about 150 million years ago as a result of tectonic plate movement. Vast areas were later covered with successive lava flows, as recently as 6 million years ago. Uplifting from deep in the earth's core formed the Seven Devils and Eagle Cap Mountains, a process that continues today. The canyon itself is a result of both uplifting and erosion. There have been recent basalt flows and you will also see limestone formed on the ocean floor, ancient lavas, alluvial deposits, and the remains of primitive swamps that grew on the island surfaces.'"

They ask me to believe these crystals formed vertically, then were tossed sideways and jumbled about by upthrusting, without breaking formation? The Nimipoo legend does a better job explaining the physical evidence...

Yet we are not forced to choose which legend is true, Nimipoo or Official Science. There is "fringe science" to bridge the gap, that crazy edge of the universe where truth often lurks unnoticed and undisturbed.

Here is a man making "Hell's Canyon" formations in his basement laboratory. He is using high voltage electricity, simulating a plasma event that Electric Universe scientists have theorized was a major factor in forming this planet. Once you see what he can do, you may agree it is the most plausible explanation I have presented today. Turn the volume down and skip through, you can get the idea by watching a few seconds of every 2 or 3 minutes of the video.

To get the explanation of what you just watched and a taste of what Electric Universe scientists discuss, please watch this excellent video featuring the late, awesome Michael Steinbacher:

Do you believe massive flooding or earthquakes BENT these rocks? They are not broken, they BEND.

They look like they formed right where they are, the way they are, to me. Not like giants thrashed about and caused this, not like earthquakes and floods ravaged the area and deposited the rocks very neatly along the sides of the canyon.

Interestingly enough, if you really delve into the Nimipoo legend, it could be describing a plasma event like the EU scientists have hypothesized...
Seriously, this looks like a finely crafted patio, not chaos left by natural disasters!

Thank you for taking time to visit my blog, your comments and support are much appreciated! I hope you found this entertaining and a little thought provoking, because we have been lied to about many, many things. Denying the impact of electromagnetic forces in the formation of our planet (and universe) is a huge blind spot that "modern science" clings to a bit too desperately.
