Salutations Curious Vida, I applaud you for saying how you see things, it is always refreshing to hear an honest opinion rather than an unimaginative, trained and indoctrinated, by the book response that is usually laced with vitriol! Sometimes I believe the slights they cast simply come out of fear. I agree with much your surmisations, and even if the thing was proven a volcano I would say the volcano was also a tree....at least from my perspective; it makes sense. A volcano could be a tree that at a certain point began to burn slow due to the high moisture content stored or piped up by the trunk, water and wood oil, rendering the wood mass to a molten pulp. I believe obsidian is this ultra purified silicate, the frothier tuff is from a dryer wood, ash and cinders and pulp. Ash eruptions result from burnt out root tunnels collapsing, which jettison ash. Magma pools are likely taproot reservoirs, root tunnel collapse and magma coming in contact with ground water could be the catalyst to cause the typical activity most would assume to term as volcanism. I think science nuts think way too hard making excuses, why not connect biology with geology instead of distancing the two disciplines, as geology is a state or stage or result of biology. People have a hard time seeing that much dirt and stone was once vegetative or wood, it depends on the level of desiccation, cellular breakdown before the wood entered into an environment conducive to preservation, and then the variety of ways wood makes that change to stone, whether that by mineralization of surrounding soil or chemical nature in a water submersion, electrical shock, etc.... I eould love to hear your opinions! Imagine one of those giant trees breaking, the torrent of water that would flow from a snapped trunk, the vast amount of liquid to provide the turgor pressure, the vast volumes required to keep such a tree rigid and standing! Sending Cheers and Blessings to You and All Yours!
Thanks for the comment! Well I'm no expert and we just enjoy seeing these places in person and trying to comprehend the history from different perspectives. The thing about the scientific theories is that they are just theories right. Lots of things are possible to have existed the many years ago that might be difficult for us to comprehend today. Maybe it is a core of magma that came from underground but then the surrounding area would have been there to support it or it wouldn't be near flat at the top like it is. That would be a lot of erosion that I'm not seeing accounted for anywhere. It's interesting for sure. Wyoming is a great place to get some perspective by looking at the geology and get you asking some questions for sure. You take care and thanks for saying hi. PS- I'm sure everything was bigger back then including the trees.
So if this was their power source then how did they assemble such a piece of equipment? Just saying the concept makes sense but it looks assembled in a factory.
Thanks so much Zesan! We appreciate the feedback more than you may know. Especially nice to hear the positive feedback. We'll get out to making some more content very soon. Thanks for keeping us motivated. Take care ✌️
@thecuriousvida Going on a week-long wilderness camping/fishing trip in RMNP here in a month and a half. We are from MO, but bass are getting boring. 😏
@22Timmay Oh wow that sounds amazing! I'm originally from Florida and caught lots of Bass. There's something about fishing in a Rocky Mountain creek or stream for some beautiful trout. Enjoy your trip! ✌️
Interesting find! Looks like a very safe and secluded place to put some VIP’s 🤔 when all hell breaks loose! Very informative! Thanks and keep up the great work! ❤️🤍💙
Technically, the top would not have been cut off. The top would have been the point that was not submerged underwater to have gone through the process of petrification. So the water or level of mud was up to there. The dirt covered up to that point the highest point of the tower or petrified tree.. the small rocks all surrounding the tower are also petrified wood you can easily reflect on the petrified forest of Arizona, or the petrified logs in Wyomi to see the connection
There is also records of in China a fossilized tree been over 150 feet tall and it’s roots spreading some enormous amounts. I’d have to find the video but there’s proof of gigantic trees. Trees grew beyond 150feet as proven by Chinese scientists in recent news discovery a fossilized tree and its roots . The roots were thicker than current trees these days.
I worked there off and on for 5 years from 1999 to 20003. I have a lot of good memories. I am glad to see more and more videos popping up there, When i left in 2003, that was my last alert (fire teams), so i did security, i did not work down stairs. But when i left, i never thought i would step foot on there again, then during a vacation, i found out they opened Q1 up to the public and i got to take my son to my old work place and that was one of the most amazing things i ever got to do.
Precious moments like these are the ones I always remember the fondest. Spending time in the red rock sandstone with my dad and friends, taking in the expanse without too many other people around. Amazing times to be shared.
Don’t share precious locations like this on the internet. It’s great to want to share it with people, but too many will go and disrespect the places we care about. Edit: to clarify, it’s awesome and great to share it, but leave the exact location as secret as possible. Especially as it isn’t inside the park where it can be regulated and protected by rangers. Love the arch, and hope your group enjoyed it too! ❤️❤️
@@thecuriousvidaI still got em', some of my prised positions.. I miss my Dad.. Going over the golf of Alaska in 17 ft wave is something I will never forget. My Dad was built different lol. Wittier was awesome. .
