The eight eld trips in this volume, associated with GSA Connects 2021 held in Portland, Oregon,
USA, re ect the rich and varied geological legacy of the Paci c Northwest. The western margin of
North America has had a complex subduction and transform history throughout the Phanerozoic,
building a collage of terranes. The terrain has been modi ed by Cenozoic sedimentation, magma-
tism, and faulting related to Cascadia subduction, passage of the Yellowstone hot spot, and north
and westward propagation of the Basin and Range province. The youngest ood basalt province
on Earth also inundated the landscape, while the mighty Columbia watershed kept pace with arc
construction and funneled epic ice-age oods from the craton to the coast. Additional erosive
processes such as landslides continue to shape this dynamic geological wonderland.
