Despite two centuries of speculation and science, a strange prairie full of small, evenly spaced hills south of Olympia remains a mystery.

Cascade PBS’s resident historian Knute Berger unearthed some of the theories on the famous Mima Mounds’ origins in a recent episode of the Mossback’s Northwest video series, but there’s more left to explore.

In this episode of Mossback, Berger joins co-host Stephen Hegg to dig deeper into the many explanations that have been put forth over the years, including earthquakes, fires, floods and ancient gophers. Plus, we get a peek behind the scenes at the Mossback’s Northwest video shoot at the Mima Mounds and local geologist Patrick Pringle weighs in.
