There is one correction I would like to make in my video. At 5:18 I state that the average depth of the lake is 25 feet. I believe that to be incorrect info and based on the original lake size from the 1800s. The current average depth should be less, but I don't have an accurate number. I REALLY wish UA-cam would let us creators re-upload videos to correct things like this, but, alas, they do not. Thanks for your understanding!
Lol thanks for the vid brotha 😂😂😂 truth be told I was born and raised in Tulare till I moved to Reno in June of this year lol it was so bad out there during winter like 3 family's I know had there houses either washed away or completely flooded
Would it stabilize ground water levels if Tulare's bottom is solid clay? Water can't penetrate clay. However, it will create a lacustrian ecosystem that will bring birds and other wildlife, as well as grasses, sedges, rushes and cattails and so much more. I hope it never dries up.
Allowing the marshlands to return would be essential to that goal. That would require the absence of all development, wouldn’t be allowed even if all the property owners were willing to give up their land. Wetlands are prime targets for developers; easily developed flat land that just needs to be dried out. That’s the majority of flat land in the US.
im from the central valley and even tho i understand that agriculture industry is huge here, i think the industry and this lake can coexist. i really wish the lake can survive.
@@dakmycat3688 That is up to nature, like it or not. Nature and it's drought dried it up, nature and huge amounts of snow, filled it up. Further human activity can twist the outcome.
Something you should mention is that the aquifer that is being drained was originally filled by the existence of Tulare Lake. Not only are we extracting water at a ridiculous rate, we also drained the only way it was being replenished.
"we also drained the only way it was being replenished." Nonsense. that area is a giant bowl. every bit of rain that falls there is absorbed into the ground and the constant seismic activity helps to prevent the aquifer from being compacted.
@@jimbeam-ru1my "Every bit of rain that falls there is absorbed into the ground" Aquifer recharge from rain is really small in magnitude as much of it is absorbed or runs off. You need bodies of water to replenish aquifers and that's what intentional recharge tries to do.
Great production! It seems the media has just forgotten about this event. This is the first time I've heard anyone mention the, "average depth." On a positive note, typical flood waters are high in nutrient rich silt, a win win for the farmer. Now on a flip side, don't discount mother nature, who is to say CA doesn't get a double tap with a second wet winter!!!!!! Thank you for your time and costs of the production.
I was finding alot of articles about Tulare Lake back in April when the flood threat was greater...but it has naturally faded in importance in the media. I had been wanting to make the video since then but for various reasons I wasn't able to get around to it until now.
Thanks man appreciate you posting this video. I am 75 and have always wanted to see what this valley esp. Tulare county looked like from a small plane. Love it. You've made my day. I hope you continue to enjoy life and prosper in all your doings.
I can well believe 1969 was a record wet winter. In February of that year I returned to California after a long absence and drove up the Central Valley to the Bay Area and it looked like the entire valley was under water. At one point we saw a bridge that looked like it was about to wash away, but left before knowing what eventually happened.
Wow! Great video! Excellent footage, storytelling, maps, and graphs! Thank you for sharing the story of Tulare Lake. I've been obsessed with Tulare Lake since I first learned about it when I moved here 15 years ago. I had always dreamed to hopefully see it come back one day. I didn't think I actually would. It was incredible to see it in person. I appreciate this overhead view, too. I'm excited the lake will be around for a couple years. I wish we would let it stay and help restore it to its former glory. The Central Valley is coming back to life! The lake and the rivers! Screw Boswell and Big Ag. Nature always wins in the end. "Break the dam! Release the river!" -- Treebeard
1997/1998 it was filled. A lot of people miss that because it was kept quiet. I saw it with my own eyes. Currently it SHOULD be still filling but they have decided to send the water out to the ocean instead of filling the natural lake to its capacity. The Tachi Yokut lived on the north west shore of the tule lake. They had a price put on their heads by the first governor of California. This area is covered with greed. Mother will wash it away as she did this year. In the end nature always wins.
bingo, this is the truth. huell howser went out there that year and his show is how I learned about it two decades after t happened- before all this current hype
My family loved to fish so we were always looking for lakes to go to. Well one day I looked into a Rand Macnally map and saw Tulare lake. Showed my dad the map and he said let's go check it out, so we jumped into the truck and headed to the location and when we got there lo and behold it was farmland. Mind you this was the early 80's and now the future, the lake has returned. Thank you for this excellent video it brought back great memories. 👍
In the past, one could take a paddlewheel ship from Stockton to just north of Bakersfield. I discovered this because I wondered why there were piers, wharfs, and docks up and down the valley. I recall there even was a derelict steamboat north of Dinuba. That was the early 1990s, I haven't been back since. Piers and such can likely still be found here and there in the valley.
@@secretsquirrel6308 Most paddleboats ended at French Camp Slough located just south of Stockton around the Gold Rush. At the most, maybe someone could have taken a boat to Fresno (Just north of Fresno where Fort Millerton used to be.) along the San Joaquin, but, again, this was well before our time. I live in Manteca and was a trained member/docent of the Manteca Historical Museum from the middle 1990's until about 2001.
Honoring the land’s natural ecosystem is vital. Trying to undo what nature has created has consequences. I’m happy Tulare Lake has returned. The farmers will just have to move on 👍🏼
Thx Dan. Yeah YT content has been low on my priority list lately but I def enjoy this type of format for my videos. I have more videos in the pipeline...I just can't crank them out as often as you do!!
Was just at Tulare Lake on the ground today. The water level has gone down significantly. There was a high water mark atleast a foot above where the level is at currently. On a satellite image taken on June 30th, new fields were flooded. I believe the lake level has gone down because farmers are pumping water out and into controlled areas.
I've read the native Yokuts who lived around this lake built reed boats like the ones at Lake Titicaca. They didn't appreciate the incursion into their hunting and fishing lands and the immigrants didn't appreciate the Yokuts. I've read the State of California put a bounty on the scalps of all Yokuts, children and women included, of $5. This allowed the immigrants to occupy themselves prior to their agricultural pursuits . . . to make some money. Many were miners left over from the 1848-55 Gold Rush. The bounty was imposed mid-to-late 1800's and wasn't rescinded until 1903. What's left of the Yokuts operate a casino in LeMoore, CA. Perhaps have something to do with the one in Coarsegold. The profits can be a source of conflict between some of the sub-bands of these natives as they fight over who is entitled to what. California History.
Worse happened to The Yokuts. Most were slaughtered in a genocidal rate. The natives of California, most of whom lived in The Central Valley, were one of two tribes in all of North America that were sedentary complete with towns and institutions like schools, town halls, and hospitals. Smallpox got most of them, and the farmers made sure there was no trace of their towns left. History of California.
@@RichardMichael-k6o thanks for writing this... I couldn't help but feel anger at the thought of those poor natives living their lakefront lives in what must truly have been an idyllic setting... only to have their existence obliterated by, let's be real here, **cking barbarians. you can be sure those invaders came & proceeded to act out the worst parts of the old testament on those poor natives.

Tulare Lake is a component of local flood control. The Kings River is connected to the San Joaquin River system via the Fresno Slough. A lack of storage on the SJR means their flows have to go downstream. Merced, Stanislaus, and Tuolumne rivers also flow into the SJR. Tulare Lake is a safe storage facility.
@@jerroldkazynski5480 I think this is the solution. more storage. makes no sense to keep having record rainfalls and continuous draught. if I make lots of money and still end up broke every month that's money mismanagement. In California if we do that with water, it's somehow called climate change and too much demand.
@trinydex Plus, for those who track the farmed acreage of the Tulare Lake bed, there isn't enough surface water to allow farming of the lakebed every year. Pre-history, Tulare Lake periodically dried up, as Owens Lake did also, before diversion of river waters for beneficial uses.
@@jerroldkazynski5480 the narrative needs to change. there's a segment of Californians who lean toward environmentalism who just think saying no to everything is the answer. less humans is the answer. less human activity is the answer. we need to let the adults retake the helm and stop listening to nonsense.
As you always do, you made another fantastic, informative, interesting and visually stunning video. My heart breaks for those farmers whose livelihoods are 25 feet under water. Glad to have you back, thank you for sharing.
I feel bad for them too cause no one deserves to lose everything. But in hind sight making your farm in a lake bed might be a bad idea. I hope it gets turned into a park instead of a farm next time it dries up.
Nothing wrong with farming that land when the water recedes over time. Just be ready for Plan B when the rains come. It's still highly valuable land in the broader spectrum as a water preservation area, which California needs so much.
loved this thanks! you know the subsidence of the central valley is likely why the flooding at the former tulare lake area was worse this year than ever as you said even with slightly less precipitation than before because it made a deeper bowl for the water to flow into.
That was very interesting and well balanced, and of course the beautiful pictures you could take added a lot. And good to mention blancolirio, his videos explaining the whole water system in all of California and flyovers really are a treat!
I could watch your flyovers of this blessed and sacred area for hours. Would you happen to have another current video of the lake as it subsides? Thank you for this beautiful footage.
Glad you enjoyed and thx for the super chat! I haven’t filmed anything there since but I flew past it recently and I didn’t see it…although perhaps it’s very small and I just missed it.
Hell - and I cannot state this enough - yeah! Another Wolficorn video! Love these informative videos so much. Super interesting and some really neat shots. Can't believe I haven't seen anything about this event until now.
Sorry it's taken so long, haha! I'm definitely not one of those YT'ers who can put out content every week...but this was definitely a long hiatus. Glad you stuck around!
Haha good ol Whitman airport. I haven’t flown into there in years! Brought back memories. Wish you had a non sped up version of that so I could have seen it in real time:)
There is no lake to save and hasn't been for a hundred years, there is a former lake bed with farmland and even towns on it, that has flooded a few times in the past hundred years, but there is no lake. It was destroyed over a hundred years ago on purpose, and infrastructure built to keep it drained. It is no more a lake anymore than a puddle in your yard after a rain is a pond.
give it a couple of more times to flood like it did. by at least the 3rd or 4th, people won't be moving back to the area and will probably just let the lake exist whenever it re-floods.
Thank you so much for sharing 🥰 I hope the Boswell’s will leave Tulare as it is. I drove down from the SV and saw so much wildlife thriving from this “new” ecosystem!
I genuinely want to cry. This was a lake that natives used for so many generations and for modern man to come and destroy it, is so heartbreaking. Keep Lake Tulare!!!! 🥹

Great vid. Hows the lake looking today?
@@robertwrites925 Thx. Last I heard, the lake has slowly continued to shrink but the rainy season is about to kick in so that may change things.
Tulare Lake should become a state park. So it could stabilize ground water levels, and make the local environment and central valley less desert like.
Would it stabilize ground water levels if Tulare's bottom is solid clay? Water can't penetrate clay. However, it will create a lacustrian ecosystem that will bring birds and other wildlife, as well as grasses, sedges, rushes and cattails and so much more. I hope it never dries up.

@@SarahGreen523 what makes you think water cant penetrate clay?
@@SarahGreen523 water does penetrate clay. More importantly though this would provide original habitats and ecosystems like you mentioned. That's key.
Are you sure you understand how ground water works?
im from the central valley and even tho i understand that agriculture industry is huge here, i think the industry and this lake can coexist. i really wish the lake can survive.
They cannot coexist. Not with a healthy lake.
Cotton company should dump in a big load of Louisiana crawfish.
Human activity and the weather will determine the fate of the lake.
I hope so. Lake belongs here it has every right to exist.

So far the precip this winter hasn't been anything compared to last year. If that changes (not likely) I would post an update
loved this thanks! you know the subsidence of the central valley is likely why the flooding at the former tulare lake area was worse this year than ever as you said even with slightly less precipitation than before because it made a deeper bowl for the water to flow into.

Haha good ol Whitman airport. I haven’t flown into there in years! Brought back memories. Wish you had a non sped up version of that so I could have seen it in real time:)
I was there last week at the corner of Tulare Lake. It was jaw dropping seeing calm waters expand towards the horizon
Great video. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
So beautiful. ♥️ I love when Mother Nature claims what is hers. I hope this lake lasts a life time. Thank you Mother Nature for giving us fresh water.
Very nicely done. This offers some good perspective and information.
Nice job. Very professional!
Awesome report. Theres a lot of Tulare Lake nonsense out there, your work is greatly appreciated‼❤🙂
Very interesting and cinematography..creative to the last scene landing . Bravo.
Always have been interested in the water situation and growing issues of California. Thanks for this new (to me) info!💕
Glad you found it useful!
This was awesome. Such good quality content.
Thx!
Thanks for a well done, short video. I've seen Juan's coverage and liked yours too.
Great job
I know it’s valuable farm land, but I wish there were a way to effectively save the lake.
I agree 100%
There is no lake to save and hasn't been for a hundred years, there is a former lake bed with farmland and even towns on it, that has flooded a few times in the past hundred years, but there is no lake. It was destroyed over a hundred years ago on purpose, and infrastructure built to keep it drained. It is no more a lake anymore than a puddle in your yard after a rain is a pond.
give it a couple of more times to flood like it did. by at least the 3rd or 4th, people won't be moving back to the area and will probably just let the lake exist whenever it re-floods.
@@Ilikefire2792 That would be great news!
Never heard of this lake until recently. Dispite its history. Thx for posting. You put a lot of work into it.
Your videos are always interesting and intriguing. Thanks for posting!

Glad you liked it. Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for sharing 🥰 I hope the Boswell’s will leave Tulare as it is. I drove down from the SV and saw so much wildlife thriving from this “new” ecosystem!
I genuinely want to cry. This was a lake that natives used for so many generations and for modern man to come and destroy it, is so heartbreaking. Keep Lake Tulare!!!! 🥹
Glad you liked the video!
Some really nice shots (and overall really enjoyable video)! Was all your footage shot on GoPros?
Thx. Yes...all Gopro. They are frustrating little things but the best tool for the job.
