Hear about what the landscape was like when European settlers arrived in the Olympic Peninsula. Stan Graham and Dave Peter will speak on “Why Here? Legacies of a Cultural Tsunami” at the McCleary Museum & Event Center Saturday, March 15th, 2025 at 2PM. They will explore why the forests and prairies were where they were when Europeans migrated to the Olympic Peninsula and why most are now gone. How did nature interact with Native management and later with settler management to create their respective landscapes?
