Wisconsin Dells Biblical Flood Geology Tour

 We have a beautiful treasure right here in Central Wisconsin called the Wisconsin Dells. What’s the Evidence was invited to host a boat tour on the Wisconsin River and teach about the sandstone formations laid down in the early stages of the Genesis Flood. Here is a photo glimpse of the beauty, as well as the lessons these rock layers tell us. 

Check out this video and learn about what happened during the Flood of Genesis and what we see in the Dells:

Four different groups of families took the guided tour in the Upper Dells. Here they are at Stand Rock where a dog jumps the gap between the cliff and "Stand Rock".  

Families came through the Genesis Walk Museum before and after the tours. 



The name of our tour boat was the Marquette.

Blue Mesa Trail in Petrified Forest, Arizona

This was a truly desolate place. The impact of the catastrophe of the Genesis Flood hit me as I walked this trial.

Biblical Flood Geology from Bottom to Top

 Dave and I drove to the Western United States to explore the Biblical Flood geology that is literally all over the West. We visited Palo Duro Canyon in the Texas Panhandle, The Painted Desert and Petrified Forest, Sedona, Arizona, Grand Canyon, Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon and the Rockies.  This post will be mostly pictures along with some explanations of the sediments as well as links to more detailed articles and short videos from geologists. While we are not geologists ourselves, we love to study this topic and share what we learn with the thousands who come through the Genesis Walk Museum. We hope our trip and the pictures and videos will impact you as it has impacted us. We begin with Genesis as we look at the layers in the earth. From there we learn of our great God and Savior. Thanks for coming along..


Texas Panhandle 



These sedimentary layers that are exposed and we can see here were laid down early in The Genesis Flood of Noah's day, but not as early as those in the Grand Canyon. 
Palo Duro Canyon near Amarillo, Texas. This is the second largest canyon in the United States.


Some of the rocks that can be found in Palo Duro Canyon. Scroll down for links to articles explaining that Noah's Flood is responsible for this canyon. 




  Cave in the park

ICR (Institute for Creation Research) scientists in Dallas, Texas, have visited this canyon and written a few articles to help give an understanding of where this fits in the geology of The Flood (Genesis 6-8). Here are some short and easy to understand articles: Palo Duro Canyon Rocks Showcase Deep Time
Largest Canyons Were Formed by the Receding Flood





 Watery deposition of the layers is easy to see.




 In the US, only the Grand Canyon is a larger canyon.








New Mexico
Painted Desert/Petrified Forest in Arizona.
This was created in the  early to mid Flood. Sediments deposited as they were sorted by water. Minerals are shown in the color varities.

Great article from The Institute for Creation Research HERE
Minerals create the colors!






The remaining hills after the flood waters receeded.

End of Painted Desert, now off to...
Grand Canyon, AZ (below)
These layers were laid down at the beginning of the Genesis Flood. The canyon formed very quickly with a mass run off event at the end of The Flood. 

I hiked down into the canyon for about half and hour. Behind me is the Coconino Sandstone.
These 3 videos from the film, Is Genesis History, explain the evidence that this was a watery deposition.

Top of Grandstaircase is Bryce Canyon National Park. This was created late or post Flood.
