    So, I set out backpacking to learn more about the people and things who once lived here.
    What I found, might change the way you think about American History.

    I live in Colorado and around 1979 I was in high school I saw a black and white reel to reel film in geology class that showed what Glen Canyon was like before it was filled. That video exists somewhere. It was amazing and broke my heart. It is one of the most memorable things I’ve ever seen.

    One of my most treasured possessions is a book from 1963 “the place no one knew” by Eliot Porter and published by the sierra club. Library of Congress catalogue number- 66-15340. It won the Carey-Thomas award in 1964. The photos are amazing . I hope you can find a copy somewhere even to just look at the photos. We have heard rumors here in AZ that possibly Glen Canyon dam would be removed . As it should be. Thanks for sharing your adventures

    Duuuuude this is epic. I didn't know there was all this history under the lake! Why would they do this? I looked it up and the project was approved in April 1956. Why was this such a priority then? They clearly knew they would be flooding history away, and then did just that. Also I am seeing the original purpose of the lake, to "control flooding" is now obsolete. So it can be drained yet there is strong opposition to that, for now. I like how you ended the video, it's true! One day these canyons will be revealed again

      Energy + water storage was the main goal on paper. It is the 2nd largest reservoir in the US in a very resource constrained area. Thats all they cared about back then . However, it has dramatically backfired on the water front. Due to the huge surface area, we lose an insane amount of water to evaporation here every year. It's a large part of why the Colorado has diminished. Yep it'll come back. Question is- how soon

    • @coolbaj
      @coolbaj Місяць тому +1

      Wow that's wild. Looking it up, the reservoir was at its highest in 1983 and is now 185 feet down from that highest fill. I didn't know that much had already evaporated! That's 40 years to evaporate 185 feet. Not sure how deep it is now but I'd estimate another 20+ years to evaporate the vast majority... I see another article saying on June 13 this year, 40,000 acre-feet of water leaked out of the reservoir 🤔

    • @ruinsandridges
      @ruinsandridges Місяць тому

      @coolbaj, many lakes that were man-made in the West had this happen. Because native people lived along creeks and when the creeks were dammed, so much was washed underneath. We find Native pottery sherds around all our lakes here in Arizona, and wonder how much is under the water.

    Beautiful scenery. I watched a documentary, probably on YT, that had clips of old footage of the canyon before it was flooded. It was incredibly beautiful. So sad it’s hidden but nice it’s re-emerging. But that will be at the expense of people in the west who need the water.

    You walk too close to the edge, but what is life without a little risk. Your life flashed before all of our eyes as you jumped in tot he water!! 😱 I think given the water is gradually receding, and water has a way of preserving things, there is a chance some of the historic ruins and artifacts may be still intact. Probably important to document as much as possible as the waters peel back, as the exposure will have them decay quite rapidly. Can't wait to see more.

    This is freaking sick. I cannot believe how vast it is and how deep these canyons are. That overhead shot really shows off the geology its amazing.
    I appreciate our modern electric world but hopefully as new energy production is established some damns can be removed and their original state restored

This isn't just sightseeing This is a form of environmental activism with the impact of an atom bomb. This is technology enlightening the world to what's going on right in our backyard.

    I grew up in that area from 1957-67 during the years Glen Canyon Dam was being built. We drove often to see the progress of the dam and my dad loved fishing/camping at Lee's Ferry. They wouldn't build it today & cover those sacred historic sites. We hear talk at times of taking down the dam but don't know if it'll ever happen.

    Yes, like the grand, I'm sure there's stuff in Glen they really don't want us to see. Those arches under water looking down on them was from another world. Now that I battle with the Plantar sore heel syndrome, don't think Ronnie's rump will be doing the hike for real. Great job.👌😎

    For a renewal power source, people forget just how destructive hydroelectricity is. You need huge reservoirs which flood valleys and canyons, displace both humans and animals, interrupt the natural flow of the river for aquatic animals, sometimes even depriving large sections of the lower river of water. The Colorado River (as I understand it) barely makes it to the sea anymore. In Australia, the Snowy Hydro scheme & other dams has decreased the flow of the Murray, Murrumbidgee and Snowy Rivers anywhere from 40-80% (depending on how much rain there has been).

    While I can agree Glen Canyon was beautiful and it is a great loss to have it swamped currently, Boating, especially house boating on Lake Powell is still one of the most amazing experiences in the WORLD. Get upriver from Page to sections like Rock Canyon and Escalante and you are literally cut off from the outside world. No cell phones or internet, less people. The experience is surreal. It must have been almost holy to the ancients. It still is to many. If there is anything to be said for the water, it is that it has made this area accessible to so many more than would go there w/out it. Great work on the video, love the channel. Keep exploring the LP area for us!

    Phenomenal! And there are likely Native Americans who know history and have been in that region prior to the dam. One account I have seen online covers incredible treachery at that time, having to do with the dam. What was promised was not given. You’re an extreme explorer fit for one of the biggest challenges ahead. Daunting! But not for Tooie (spelling for your dog), and for you!. Undaunted.
