    I sure appreciate this video. It is the best I have seen since this slide happened. Everyone is talking about all the damage and debris in the river, but I am seeing a totally different view of things. I see tons of woody debris that will provide habitat for fish, insects, and other wildlife. Charcoal and ash from the fires will provide nutrients to the water for the aquatic wildlife. There will be tremendous scouring to the river bottom that will break up compacted gravels and boulders, providing places for fish to hide and spawn. This is kind of ugly at the moment, but it's just Nature doing what Nature does. Everything will be just fine.

      The rivers are the most ancient features in our landscapes. It’s pretty crazy. They are tens of millions of years old (at least: for instance, the Amazon pre-dates the separation of Africa from SA as well as the growth of the Andes; it was once the downstream arm of the Congo and emptied into the Pacific!).

      To @the_quaint_gypsy. I don’t know where you’re from.,but this is British Columbia Canada. It’s the Fraser River where the Chilcotin River meats it. The Debris you're seeing is from a mass slide up the Chilcotin River, up stream. The slide blocked the Chilcotin River for days, and finally broke through. As you ca see the Fraser is very muddy. Most rivers that flow into the Fraser are beautiful clean waters. The river is always muddy! As one comment said. It’s also called the mighty Fraser, cause it’s a huge river. You don’t want to fall in.🤣

Since I a couple of days ago found the very exact spot of the land slide, consequently intermediate 'barrage' and subsequently breach - and learned about the original habitants naming of the area and something that has been going on since before ancient human history, and then the many very fine helicopter recordings and strange picture of something from late 90ies added '24 refinement, this has been just soo stimulating to me as a geography nerd sine 5 years of age.

The water goes where physics dictates, nothing stops it, so many amazing geological features are the result of water + time. Also quite awesome to see the slide push all that unturbid water out into the Fraser ahead of it like a giant spearhead. Fluid dynamics writ large, there's a LOT going on here.

    May not seem like much at a glance but this is a once in a lifetime event. On this scale at least. Lucky to be there to witness it. When the dam built up from the slide, its hard to imagine a lake going from 100m deep to well over 1000m deep in days and then unleashing itself.

      @robertslugg8361 3 місяці тому +1

      With modern communication, these events really come as no surprise. It will be here, any day now. ;-) But, looking back at an event like the Columbia River being blocked by a landslide 700 years ago, imagine how the Natives down stream in the Portland area reacted first to the insane lowering of the water level as the Sandy was the only major tributary feeding it at that point before the Willamette confluence. I imagine for awhile that there was even a battle between the Willamette and the Columbia to determine which way the water actually flowed. I am sure the Salmon were going "wait, what?" After that new "normal" was adjusted to, then the water overtops the "Bridge of the Gods" and the huge lake behind it starts to flow downstream. I am not sure if geologists are in agreement how that event took place, except that it likely came without warning much like how the original landslide too came without warning. And that it was about 0.01% the magnitude of the Missoula flood that preceded it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_of_the_Gods_(land_bridge)
      Over in Iceland they are experiencing a series of eruptions in an area that erupted about 1000 years ago. The area that it erupted in back then left a long series of cones, so in our heads we construct a single event which leaves this evidence. But since December we have witnessed 5 eruptions, and each cycle both buries and adds to the cones from the last event. We are waiting for #6 to start any day now (my money is on Sept 15th) and who knows which of the earlier cones will survive it and remain for the historical record, or eruption #7, whichever comes first. It is events like this which usually jog the brain of a scientist somewhere, who then takes a step back, looks at the geography and suddenly realizes, "this has happened before, and on a completely different scale." Very few things get where they are without a story behind them.
      Anyone who finds this interesting should look up the Nick Zentner geology lecture series from 8-10 years ago. There is a lot of hidden history as to why things are and also "how they got here."

    Best video yet of the overflow. Well done. The Helicopter video was too close, too tight and the only one Global showed. I rafted years ago from Chilco Lake down to the Gang Ranch on the Fraser. Awesome 6 day trip. I was hoping someone would have drone video of the logs and water boiling down Farwell Canyon......

      Well it's less water than spring runoff. Just a bunch of logs, but even then it's virtually nothing for the size of the Frasier. Dan Hurd made a good video on what happened down stream.

    Great vantage point!! Impeccable timing! One of those, "wish I'ld been there to see it" moments for sure. I find it striking that many other places around the planet (granted with a much higher population density) that witness these types of raw natural power would be crowded with locals, whistling, yelling and in general making yahoo out of it. In NA we get a well framed long shot, wind noise and a wish for a tripod. 🤣✌🏼
