Bridge of the Gods (geologic event)
The original Bridge of the Gods was created by the Bonneville Slide, which dammed the Columbia River (see also Columbia River Gorge) in the modern-day Pacific Northwest of the United States in the eighteenth century. It was a landslide across the Columbia 200 feet high.
It has been verified geologically, and there are native legends of it.
It is now the name of a bridge, the Bridge of the Gods, across the Columbia between Oregon and Washington.
