The Rangers were accused of delaying in response. I wasn’t there, but I know that there are emergency plans in place to deal with things, and many of the staff are actual cave explorers with rescue experience. According to reports the cave was quickly evacuated to the elevator, then full capacity sorties carried everyone out quickly. The road was closed quickly and no one else came or went during Shawn’s video, except the person that left ahead of him. This was NOT their first rodeo.
I didn’t expect to see much actual damage considering the landscape, except maybe some big boulders on the road but it doesn’t look like there was even that… just some debris and mud, about what I expected. 14:08 was a decent stretch of road that was covered though. I’m glad you and everyone else was ok. Thanks again for doing this. It’s not something that I would most likely ever see otherwise!
Great follow-up Shawn. During the flood you took some risks I wouldn’t have , but you kept your head and stay on top of the situation, documenting what we would otherwise have never known. Your follow up shows very well the after effect of flash flooding. Good use of the terrain to overlook the affected areas. Notice the em go used reinforced aprons rather than culverts, which preserved the road.
👊 Thanks bud. Always enjoy watching y'all over the last few years, and its been great to be a part of your show a few times as well with different things I've shared with yall. Much luv!
Forgot to add: take the scenic drive that goes north from the park road, and comes back out following the upper canyon. I’m curious as to how that area faired. It is where these flood waters came from.
I didn't expect any damage, the desert is very resilient. I am surprised that there isn't anything blooming...I thought there would be flowers everywhere. You need to slow down on those curves...I was a nervous wreck...lol.
Not sure if anyone heard a word you said when you were standing in the heavy wind. It is amazing though how fast the water comes and goes in the desert. It's definitely a "Flash".
Wow, not bad damage for that powerful force of nature. I wonder during the flood when you warned a vehicle not to go any further and they said they had friends they were looking for and went on but turned right around. I wonder where their friends were!
Amazing that if you didn't know about the flood, you would probably not even notice! Yeah the canyon is used to it and don't give a fk. But the bits of road it crossed look almost impeccable! Well done park servic3!
Walnut Canyon going to the caverns. Their is a cave near their called "spider cave" it is in the bottom of the canyon-I've been their. That is a large cave-guided tours only. It will fill completely up with water & you would not want to be their when it floodsl. The ground here is ancient limestone reef "Karst" formations that form the caves. Full of cracks and fissures. Soaks water like a sponge. Very little of that flood water made it to the black river, much less the Pecos. Our ground water aquifers here are excellent-and pure.
How would anyone know if someone was caught up in that flood if it wasn’t observed? I’m thinking hikers. A car could get washed down and not be discovered for some time.
its in the cave, that ol water is. its karst. that's what happens. its also in the west where we have "losing streams" because the water table is lower than the surface expression.
Remember there's always two sides to a canyon there's not one side to a canyon that's called a clip when it's called a canyon there's two sides a flash flood can come from sides it's called a canyon
Damage??? the desert scrubs are used to this kind of thing only the dead stuff gets washed away thus the flash flood serves in cleaning the desert floodways. any damage to roads would be because they are manmade
For those of us that aren't Millennials or gen Z's we know what flash floods are we grew up in the area era that we know what thunderstorms create or tornadoes we know to go to High Ground
This makes no sense, other than a cheap, failed jab at Millennials & Gen Z’ers. They have seen and experienced way worse extreme weather events because of climate change than we ever did, they are much more knowledgeable about it and experienced on what to do than we ever were when one of these big weather event hits!
@@S.E.C-R okay California you keep thinking that because yeah I know what tornadoes are and yeah you can look back through history cuz yeah there's these things that are called records we know what tornadoes are we know what hurricanes are we know what oh s*** let's think what was the Columbus Day store oh it wasn't in Millennial time and sure the hell wasn't in gen Z time let's look back a little further than that dumb dumb we know oh here let's talk about extreme weather events what about the Dust Bowl that was man-made dip dip yes the Dust Bowl where the entirety of metal us was a dust bowl everybody was leaving because the government said kill the soil up and plant soybeans what happened you told all the natural grasses up and you had a drought for almost a decade nothing grew that's man-made dip dip
@@S.E.C-R everyone other thing won't you stay in your safe place California where your banana tree because everybody else is leaving California you stay in California where your banana tree and you're safe places you're safe zones and you're wildfires you're mudslides cuz that's your extreme weather events that you experience
@@S.E.C-R see I experience things like being on Mount St Helens on the 17th of May I was supposed to be on the mountain that morning see I know what mud slides are and what lahars are I know what flash floods are so unless you really know what you're talking about your two cents cheap shots to yourself
@@S.E.C-R and as you commented in other threads there really was no damage and the wash where he pulled over and filmed the boom truck the guy really wasn't in any big hurry like they've experienced it a time or two before you think like it's Carol bad Canyon like it's a canyon it's natural erosion it's happened for a millennia you think it's happened once or twice before like no duh so it's just this new generation that has experience this like the dip dip it's happened for a millennial so it's not just the Millennials and gen Z's there experiencing this it's happened throughout Mankind's lifetime

It is absolutely terrible what it is happening around us everywhere. I must suggest to repent and give our life to Jesus; before we hit bottomless pit, where the devil lives and suffer for ever.
Amazing. What a difference from the first video. Thank goodness for the quick actions of the rangers, keeping people safe.

Thank YOU for taking the TIME to film the path of the flood !

Wow beautiful, Crazy to think how much water we saw in your previous video! Crazy awesome view man.
👊 Thanks bud. Always enjoy watching y'all over the last few years, and its been great to be a part of your show a few times as well with different things I've shared with yall. Much luv!

These are great videos. Thanks for posting.

Awesome, glad you did this.
Wow, not bad damage for that powerful force of nature. I wonder during the flood when you warned a vehicle not to go any further and they said they had friends they were looking for and went on but turned right around. I wonder where their friends were!
He said they were at the top at the visitor center.
Wow beautiful but I bet it was scary , thank you for sharing many blessing
Thanks for the follow up.
That beautiful New Mexico sky though...
Wowww Better place
What about the bridge under the highway.
Here is the video I took of the entire Flash Flood course.

Well built roads considering how well they survived.
How would anyone know if someone was caught up in that flood if it wasn’t observed? I’m thinking hikers. A car could get washed down and not be discovered for some time.
Flash floods come on fast and then they are gone. A car would be found, a hiker I don't know.
Exclant 💓🇵🇰🌲🏡☔👣🚂🚃
What brought you to Carlsbad?

This is happening all over the world

I don’t see any devastation, what I see is people built a road through a flood plain.
Cleaning out the dumbs
I was gonna ask if you knew what it was and it looks like you do!!
Mic windage is awful.
Another word for canyon it's called erosion erosion it means to erode Earth and soil
