Palouse Falls Plunge Pool

Palouse Falls Plunge Pool

The ancestral Palouse river flowed through the currently dry Washtucna Coulee to the Columbia River. The Palouse Falls and surrounding canyons were created when the Missoula Floods overtopped the south valley wall of the ancestral Palouse River, diverting it to the current course to the Snake River by erosion of a new channel. Palouse Falls State Park is located at the falls.
