Yosemite Nature Notes 36: Mystery Trees in Tenaya Lake

[@loripowell5088]

I was flying from L.A. to Portland about 30 years ago and went over Yosemite. It was so amazing to see from the air. I was awed. It made me realize how small and insignificant we are. I can't imagine what it was like when Yosemite was being formed. It was awesome to see.

Thanks for telling us this. Never knew it! My wife and I often picnic for lunch on the shore as we head East. I love the views of Tenaya peak and the glimpses of Tresidder. As a mountaineer, I love the Cathedral Range. At 6:00 that is a beautiful view of Mt Conness. My first ever Sierra summit 40 years ago.

Stunning beauty…the lake the surrounding forest and mountains. Glad to see the lake is not lower.

[@kea5763]

Extraordinary place. 😊

"Probably a few hundred feet across, and very long." Wow. And "really deep", too! You'd think she'd have some actual information, being that she's a ranger doing a video on the lake and all. I had to FF to 3:00 before they got around to talking about the trees. Then the guy tells us they're not "stumps" but the tops of trees, and the woman says there is a "smattering of various stumps". So at 4 minutes out of 7 we find out they are old trees "peaking out over the lake surface". No kidding. "The wood that's under the lake"? You mean under water? In the water? Under the surface of the lake? Who writes this stuff? STOP saying "really unique"!! I've been there. I've done that. It is spooky. I saw a presentation at Parson's Lodge about this in the late '90s, given by biologists who had studied the trees, and why they were there. Wasn't there something about a terminal moraine damming Tenaya Creek? And there's a parallel feature at the South shore of Lake Tahoe. All in all a disappointing video.

Glad to read that your woke, Harris2024!

Science is the state-mandated religion of the NWO. They just make it up as they go along to fit whatever goals they have. The latest is climate change to steal more tax money.

[@PeterRabbit70]

James, I know what you mean. We were spoiled to grow up in the 1950s-60s with some highly technical info commonly available in documentaries, movies, magazines, and this does not compare. The dumbing down continues.

[@PeterRabbit70]

James, As an example of highly technical info available before, look up "the G engines are coming". From the mid 1950s, the that info almost leaked to the public before it was rudely hidden away by the hidden hand, or big oil. Anti-gravity engines are real, and we could have had them decades ago.

[@PeterRabbit70]

November 1956, Young men's Magazine, The G Engines Are Coming, by Michael Gladych. This article will have you asking yourself, how in the hell have they dumbed us down so far that an article like this was commonly available for our youngsters to read, comprehend, in 1956, from any drug store magazine stand? Dumbed-down populations are much easier to control. When Stalin took over, the first to go were all intellectuals, professors, teachers, religious leaders. And, they were killed in the most horrific ways, not just killed. Just read Alexander Solzhenitsyn, which should be required in every school here to graduate.

Wait wait how was the climate warm before combustion engines? Science told us it can’t be solar cycles.

[@markrobinson9384]

No way, you tell me the weather has cycles no matter what man does, it just can't be true.

[@QuantumEchoes111]

I just lost a bunch of brain cells after reading this.

@@QuantumEchoes111 that’s a shame.

co2 makes the planet greener, cooling us, plants and our food grow better with more co2.

I camped at Lake Tenaya in August of 1989. I had to settle for the last available spot located just off the Tioga Pass, adjacent to the parking lot / dumpsters. Back then camping at the Lake was first come, first serve. No reservations. I had the full set-up including an inflatable boat for excursions out on the lake. Good times.

[@peterwhite7252]

They look like the trees at Mount St Hellens in the lake broken root bace they never grew their water logged left standing though came from higher up.

[@th-yh6mv]

What is the background music used in the latter half of the video?

[@Fabioman3]

Are some of those trees in the lake still living?

[@quantumtechcrypto7080]

It’s Michael J fox at tenaya lake

So much for the global warming community.

[@metalmellie4371]

No one ever believes that global warming crap anyways

[@juliegreenslade2878]

Another climatic denier... give me strength!

[@bradjones5107]

In 2017 there was a Carbon spike that caused bumper crops so big that farmers were forced to dump a portion of their crops in the landfill to stabilize the market. We need more big diesel and gas powered cars and trucks. We are in a CO2 drought.

[@tahoe2jt]

Good information, but why use climate scare tactics at the end?

[@stevenhanson6057]

If you receive a government check, you back that agenda.

[@carolina_girl3484]

It's part of their 2030 agenda...

[@chrissheafer]

Talk about climate change! When I was in Arizona, I visited many ancient Indian sites.... And as you sit and look at these places and look around you have to ask yourself....where was their water source? How did they cook or stay warm with no tree to burn, how did they eat.....anything at all but a few scraggly rabbits... It's simple....it did not look then as it did now. There were trees, the grew food, there was wildlife AND there was plenty of water. Indeed, there has been MAJOR climate change during periods long ago that human could NOT have induced these changes. The current climate "crisis" is BS and can't even be compared to these past events period....and we are not csusing....anything

[@Bill-xx2yh]

Look like "Volcanos" lol. (Devils tower, Wyo).

[@Numberoneson-x4r]

I’m surprised this video was not deleted… because it doesn’t conform to the democrats narrative

[@shammusomalley8986]

stop feeding them?

[@MarkH10]

I see some hope for objective information from you guys. Let me offer some. ONE Law Enforcement Agency in the entire US has NO department with ANY files regarding Missing Persons reported within their jurisdiction. NONE. I tell you what, pick a year. 2001-2011, Thought of it? Good. Now WRITE a paper letter to the HQ. Offer to buy the list of persons reported missing in their jurisdiction in that year. Write a paper letter to your State Police and ask for the same. Write a paper letter to your County Sheriff, and ask for the same. Compare all 3 results. THAT is what they can tell you about events in YOUR LIFETIME. Now listen to the story about events thousands of years ago.

[@mond000]

Only clueless normies believe in official history or the state mandated NWO religion called "Science".

[@Rick..989]

11,500 yrs ended an iceage but truly science can be mistaken simply put , it's best guess and they've been wrong so many times before. Makes you wonder what or who signs their paychecks or rather what motivates their hypothesis that are forced on humanity. Believe on the WORD
