Climate change hoax got a dislike and an unsubscribe

Birds bring fish eggs in their shit too..lol😅

As the event was around 7000-8000 years ago, it would be highly unlikely. However oral histories can potentially last that long, in theory

@@robrod7120 I am a citizen of the Choctaw Nation. Our homelands are in the southeast of the US; we have oral stories about wooly mammoth/mastodon, in particular relating to their sudden mass-death due to disease. Current estimates place wooly mammoth and mastodon as having gone extinct at least 11,000 years ago. Indigenous Nations have very long memories, especially of cataclysmic events.

@@Mockingbird_Taloa I applaud those who keep oral memories and "stories" alive. I consider them far more reliable than other sources, especially when those sources keep arguing among themselves as to what they think is correct. Oral histories are consistent.

@@robrod7120 “No Native American group in the state of Oregon maintained a written language prior to the arrival of European-Americans, nor for a considerable period thereafter.” Wikipedia of tribes of Oregon. They definitely would have passed this tale down orally. Native American people have lived in the area near Mazama for at least 10,000 years.[15] At least part of the surrounding vicinity was occupied by indigenous populations when Mazama resumed activity about 8,000 years ago, following about 20,000 years of dormancy.[5] Most evidence suggests that Mazama served as a camp site, but not a permanent place of habitation.[23] Sagebrush sandals have been discovered to the east of the mountain. These populations faced an increasingly dry climate and the hazards associated with volcanic activity. In civilizations south of Mazama, stories about the volcano's eruption have been transmitted for many generations.[5] Native populations did not tell settlers about the area because it held sacred importance among tribes throughout Oregon and northern California.[23] Shamans did not allow local Native Americans to look towards Crater Lake,[26] and the Klamath people believed that just looking at Mazama would cause death. Though there are no tribal legends surrounding Crater Lake, some Native Americans still refuse to look at the water.

That is correct. If you'd like to learn more, I found this page very helpful to understand the significance of Crater Lake to the Klamath: www.craterlakeinstitute.com/smith-chronological-history-of-crater-lake/sources-and-articles-of-interest/orgin-stories-of-the-lake/

Its amazing, but watch out for the slippery rocks. Easy to fall along the rim in many places.

I went yesterday too!

Glad I could help! Enjoy your visit!

How was your trips?

No problem, that's something I always strive to do on this channel, no matter which park I'm covering. I'm a little jealous you can visit Crater Lake so frequently though! Thanks for watching!

Same

I read about that in my research! Honestly, looking back, he should have gotten a shoutout in the video lol. But, glad you liked the video and glad I could spotlight your home park! Thanks for watching!

How lucky you are to have this place in your backyard!

Thanks for watching, good luck on your travels!

Absolutely. I think that's a vital piece of this story and you can't talk about the story of the National Park without it. Thanks for watching.

As a Caucasian born in America, it irritates me when Americans go on and on about their freedoms being in jeopardy, even in cases when it is not. The real freedom of this country was ruined when white men came and discriminated the natives and pushed them out of their homes. Your histories should not be forgotten.

Glad I could help Joe!

Thanks for watching!

Fun fact: Rocky Mountain National Park's Trail Ridge Road follows the path the Ute's took between the Estes Park and Grand Lake area for thousands of years!

@@coloradohikertrash9958 thats super cool I never knew that. I've lived in Boulder my whole life.

Would love to listen to those

Absolutely, thank you for watching them! And noted. I try and incorporate Native histories and cultures as much as I can in these videos - they're a crucial part of any park story and deserve to be told.

@@NationalParkDiaries Oo would be looking forward to that, love your videos man 🤝🏻

I'm glad! Thanks for being here!

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for watching!

Haha, thanks! Gotta keep it fun!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks Brian!!

Thank you and same! I was so curious about that lol

Thanks for watching!

Haha, yep! I started reading about it and I got to "giant volcanic explosion" and was like "say less." Honestly though, it is a really cool geologic story and I like the contrast of the violence of the explosion with the peace and tranquility of modern Crater Lake.

@@NationalParkDiaries I just got back from a camping trip where we hit several spots in OR and WA. You might find Crack in the Ground and Fort Rock worth looking into. Oh, and Beacon Rock in WA has an interesting story.

That's good to know, thanks for the suggestion!

I wasn't alive yet to remember it lol. But, looking at footage and the various studies that have come out about it, I thought it would make a good comparison for just how gigantic the Crater Lake eruption was.

Thanks for watching, glad you liked it! I appreciate your support of the channel in whatever form that takes. Commenting and subscribing help the channel immensely and I'm just glad you've enjoyed everything enough to stick around. It's truly appreciated and I'm looking forward to sharing more park stories with you.

Thanks!

Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!

Thanks for the correction!

Thank you Joanna!

Same!

It is so beautiful! I stood there and the hair on the back of my head stood up. Amazing

Thank you!

Thank you!

Haha, thank you! Any and all are welcome here! I'm focused on putting out good park stories and I think the rest will come. Thanks for being here!

@@NationalParkDiaries That's the way to be! The focus and hard work certainly shows. Thanks for making the videos!

@@jdjaneway You're very welcome, thanks for watching them!

Thanks for watching!

They've done studies with environmentally-friendly dies and haven't been able to find anything lol!

I'd never heard of it, but just looked it up. It's beautiful also!

I will never go back to Crater lake it is known for people disappearing especially children and they never find them

Thank you!

You are correct. Mt St Helens was 1980, but the archived video shows 1990 because that's when that clip originally aired (it was a TV news broadcast). Good eye!

@@NationalParkDiaries thanks. BTW: I like your channel and videos.

@@EdandEdGoFishingWithoutEd Thanks, I'm so glad!

Starting in the late nineteenth century, until the 1940s, Crater Lake was stocked, which is how the fish initially got in there: www.nps.gov/crla/planyourvisit/fishing.htm#:~:text=However%2C%20between%201888%20and%201941,sockeye%20salmon)%20and%20rainbow%20trout.

Haha, it was right there for the taking. I had to do it 😂

Creation from destruction!

Same!

You can but the roads there are open according to the season and no one is able or allowed to walk down to the shore lines. They do have boat tours which you can enjoy.

That sounds... terrifying. But also beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Crater Lake was actually stocked starting in the late 1800s: www.nps.gov/crla/planyourvisit/fishing.htm#:~:text=However%2C%20between%201888%20and%201941,sockeye%20salmon)%20and%20rainbow%20trout.

Thanks, I hope to visit someday myself!

Correct, they are not allowed. The aerial shots in this video are from stock footage. I got them from Storyblocks (not sponsored, just really like their service lol)

They explained the fish thing in another video I watched last night, some guy decided it would be a perfect place for fish to be stocked, so they stocked it with fish, how they stocked it, I don't know, hope that helps a little.

One day!!

Maybe learn how to type first

@@DieTryingMotivation learn reading comprehension first before making your low intelligence obvious for everyone to see, you're just embarrassing yourself now. All I did was make a correction, so is criticism not allowed now? And learn to type before what? I also bet you don't have the slightest idea what I'm talking about either.

Thanks! The eruption figures were pulled from this NPS document: www.nps.gov/crla/planyourvisit/upload/Geology-508.pdf

@Alexander Turpin, no x42 is correct though.

I actually had some trouble finding a definitive source on this! I ended up going with this one from NPS: www.nps.gov/crla/planyourvisit/upload/Geology-508.pdf I acknowledge that one is a bit dated, but went with it because it was the best I could find at the time. Although, a recent search brought up this paper from 2020: link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00445-020-1362-1#Sec20 which estimates an eruption volume of 176 km^3. They also talk about in there how there's a lot of uncertainty in how these things are measured in general, but if you have some resources I'd love to read more! Thanks for the input!

lol, I played that game too! So satisfying driving around the lake on your motorcycle!

@@NationalParkDiaries It is, the world is very beautiful and breathtaking! And yeah the ride is amazing everytime!

I bet that was a pretty ride! Were you touring or just out for a day ride?

@@NationalParkDiaries I was in my early fifties and had just moved from glaciated landscape in eastern Pa. In good shape for hills, but I felt the altitude at Crater Lake. The rim ride is about 34 miles and goes way down the outside with a big climb back up to the visitors lodge. I love the old geology back east, a volcanoe is pretty new but gorgeous under blue autumn sky.

Absolutely. Definitely want to do a video on him. Would love to travel to TR National Park to tell that story.

Never been myself, but I think it would depend on what you want to see. I've heard it can be very beautiful in the winter with all the snowfall, but you're best bet for maximum access and activities is probably going to be after the snowmelt, so July thru September-ish?

I’ve been in July. Still had snow piled up near roads.

As someone who has been to Crater Lake a half dozen times in the last few years, dare I ask what silliness that other video presented? Feral people who steal children?

@@johnchedsey1306 nah, just copypasta and heresays

Haha, I'm glad!

Like the physical arch structure? Or how it became a National Park? If its the latter, you're in luck - I've already made that video! If it's the former, I do think that would be an interesting video actually, so thanks for the suggestion!

Haha, thanks! I'm just trying to put out the best stories I can and all who want to learn about parks are welcome here!

You believe climate is real? Wtf is that supposed to mean?😅😅

Yeah, it's kind of out of the way unless you're going to Southern Oregon.. I might be heading to Portland in October and keep trying to fit it into my trip😂

@@NationalParkDiaries Driving from San Fran to Portland and then back along the cost road, but its just that far inland its 4 hour detour just to drive to and from it. never mind spend any time there, and sadly just dont have the time.

@@TCJones I understand! So many parks to see, so little time!

Good question! Surprisingly, I read more books that are National Park-adjacent than specifically about National Parks themselves. A lot of what I read deals with conservation/environmentalism more generally, and because National Parks are sort of at the vanguard for a lot of these issues, they're mentioned pretty frequently. I do pick up official histories and things like that at thrift stores when I find them, which tend to be on the drier side, but I enjoy them because I'm me lol. I do have a couple park-specific books that I like though: Dam! Water, Power, Politics, and Preservation in Hetch Hetchy and Yosemite by John W. Simpson, Nature's Return: An Environmental History of Congaree National Park by Mark Kinzer, A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson (about the Appalachian Trail), and I'm currently reading about the Kentucky Cave Wars right now (by David Kem). A few of my park-adjacent favorites are: Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner, Where the Wild Things Were by William Stolzenburg, and The Golden Spruce by John Vaillant. Honestly, there's so many good books on parks/conservation out there that I'm not even aware of, so I'm always looking for recommendations as well! Hope this helps! (Also, shameless plug for my Patreon lol. There's a book club tier on there where we discuss a park related book/movie/podcast/game/show/whatever each month. There will be some good recommendations on there too!)

A Walk in the Woods! One of the best books I've read. Hilarious AND informative.

@@adventurecreations3214 I agree!

According to this USGS report - pubs.usgs.gov/fs/2002/fs092-02/#:~:text=The%20last%20known%20eruption%20at,accumulate%20on%20the%20lake%20bottom. - it says that eruptions in deeper water are less likely to be as explosive or threaten the integrity of the rim. It also says an eruption of the same magnitude that produced the caldera in the first place is unlikely due to the lack of available magma. Overall, seems like something truly catastrophic would have to happen to cause major damage. Good thought though!

@@NationalParkDiaries Thanks glad my line of thinking had some merit to it :)

Thanks for watching! At first I thought Mount Gambier was somewhere in the US, but then I looked and it's in Australia! Greetings from the US lol!

@@NationalParkDiaries no problem! it's easy when it's good content 😊😉

😊😊

Nnn

That date is from when the archival footage aired, not from the eruption itself.

Fish add nitrogen and phosphorus to closed ecosystems. Fish poop fertilizer. That’s helpful to plant life. In the absence of abundant vascular plant life, algae will flourish as it doesn’t need much. So in isolation I think fish would invigorate all plant life.

@@ladyeowyn42 I’m not sure much plant live can survive it’s really cold water

Ah, I see! That makes sense, thanks for the correction. That was a pretty tough geologic concept to learn for a non-technical person, so I'm at least glad I got most of it correct (and that it doesn't change the point of the video lol). Thanks for the input!

@@NationalParkDiaries Yep, no problem. A lot of sites use technical jargon to explain this concept, so it can be quite difficult to "get" for someone who isn't looking to actually learn geology. I used to teach this stuff to 18 year-olds taking their mandatory science credit at university. I guess they figured that geology would be an easier elective than chemistry...unfortunately for them, geology includes a lot of chemistry, and I'd go into reasonable depth where necessary. So be thankful I'm not yammering on and on about silicate chemistry or Bowen's Reaction Series. :-) I enjoyed the video. I visited Crater Lake ages ago (still have a couple small pieces of Mazama scoria in my rock collection) and consider it one of my favourite US national parks (maybe top 5...Hawaii Volcanoes NP is #1 obviously, and Yellowstone and Zion are #2 and #3 respectively). It's just such a peaceful place, considering its origins. It has been awhile since I've crossed the 49th parallel to explore America's wilderness (Covid, and the politicization thereof have made me a bit wary of travel to the USA), but hopefully, once the price of gas goes down, a decent road trip is in the cards.

@@VoIcanoman Haha, yeah geology was, admittedly, never my strong suit either. I did well, and came to understand things in general, but it was just one of those subjects that were harder to retain for me. That's why when I do research for these videos I really try and understand the concepts in depth before relaying them to my audience. In this case, my source was the USGS itself! Guess they need to update their literature lol. Anyway, thanks again for the correction and thanks for the conversation!

@@VoIcanomanPolitical polarization in America? Never…
