Image Insular Omineca arcs.png thumb right The Bridge River Ocean between North America and the Insular and Omineca volcanic arcs The Insular Islands were a giant chain of active volcanic island s somewhere in the Pacific Ocean during the Cretaceous time that rode on top a microplate called the Insular Plate , beginning around 130 million years ago. The Insular Islands were surrounded by two prehistoric ocean s the Panthalassa Panthalassa Ocean to the west and the Bridge River Ocean to the east. About 115 million years ago, these islands collided with the North American continent, fusing onto the North American Plate and closing the Bridge River Ocean during the Mid Cretaceous time. The Insular Islands formation had occurred at least 210 million years before the collision. Like the earlier Intermontane Islands , the large size of the islands prevented them from being pushed under the North American Plate. Instead, the Insular Islands were crumpled and crushed along the shoreline of North America to become part of the continent. The Insular Plate stopped subducting under North America the subduction zone moved to the Farallon Trench further westward. ref name Burke Museum http www.washington.edu burkemuseum geo history wa Coast 20Range 20Episode.htm The Coast Range Episode .
