We are joined by Chris Cottrell, the man behind the Dabbler's
Den, to talk about his ongoing research into the Carolina Bays, the
Younger Dryas, and the possibility of a large oblique impact into
Saginaw Bay in the Great Lakes region.
Chris gives us the rundown of the work of Antonio Zamorra and
others who have done work on the Carolina bays and what they think
may have caused this enormous field of geomorphic features in the
landscape of the eastern seaboard of the United States. He also
gives a great(and terrifying) minute-by-minute description of the
catastrophic event that resulted in the Bays, and what it would
have looked like from the ground.
