The mystery of Eldorado National Forest's circular tree groves explained | Bartell's Backroads

They're not crop circles created by UFOs. They're actually a scientific experiment growing in El Dorado County's Blodgett Forest and a safe way to get some fresh air and exercise.

Hello Watsky fans

[@fisheyelens876]

Lots can happen when you clear-cut a forest, lol.

[@mibd7812]

Why are yall wearing mask in the middle of a that fresh air

[@Fox_Zero]

It's California, either their state government mandated them to do so, or they are virtue signaling.

[@ross5744]

You’re outside and wearing a mask…

[@HeyItsAvi90]

Its 3 yrs ago, which is during the pandemic. Also theres a lot of people there, the reporter, scientist, camera crew, etc. Its a mandate. Common sense is really lacking with boomers.

[@BenFoilHat]

Ya know those trees need your oxygen.

[@gabrieljohnson4213]

They trap carbon and release oxygen so kind of the opposite of what you wrote.

[@crunchymama25]

Lets wear masks while traipsing through the forest. Umm NO. My kids will not watch this. We will learn about the circular forest elsewhere. Possibly by going there and experiencing the fresh air in person. Without masks.

Why so triggered about someone making a personal choice that doesn't harm you, or affect you AT ALL?
