Sun Lakes Navigation Race

Hosted by Northwest Nav Races, their navigation race at Sun Lakes-Dry Falls State Park, near Coulee City, WA, has channeled scablands terrain encompassing a natural amphitheater ringed by majestic cliffs that were once an enormous waterfall.

This area is a beautiful flood-carved monument to the epic geology of Washington State. Massive basalt flows blanketed the state east of the mountains several million years ago, and then ice age floods carved and ripped into the basalt tens of thousands of years ago, leaving whimsical lakes, dips, caves, and canyons carved into the land. These channeled scablands are breathtaking to behold and fun to explore.
