Hiking Tour

Hurricane Harvey Buffalo Bayou

Monday 29 August
7:30am–12:00pm

George R. Brown Convention Center

Buffalo Bayou is the reason Houston exists. The riches of the Texas prairie were able to flow down Buffalo Bayou to gain access to the sea and global trade. Unfortunately, on occasions of extreme water flow down Buffalo Bayou, areas that encroach onto the bayou are adversely impacted. A geologist will lead you with observations and discussions on the effect of Harvey’s flood and reservoir release as well as its human and hydrologic impact.
