Show Notes

For many years, I have wondered about what really makes up a river.  I can see the basic features and the flows, the source and end.  But how does it really work?  Why does it work?  What are the prominent forces creating the path of the river.  This longer episode is a direct interview and conversation with Dr. David Montgomery from the University of Washington in Seattle.  Dave is a geologist by training and says to understand landscape, you have to understand rivers.  He is an author and appears if a few films about rivers and geology.
