Please consider making Videos on Canadian Provinces or territories. Or just Canada in general.
I'd like to see something on the Qattara Depression in Egypt. I find it to be a fascinating geologic feature.
In the Dominican Republic mountains we have pine forests that reach temperatures bellow 0°C and freeze during the winter. Right in the middle of a Caribbean island. In the same day you can be on a tropical Caribbean beach and a cold pine forest.
My wife is from the D.R. (Cabarete), and she was telling me about those mountains, I heard its the only place in the country where they can grow apples and strawberries because of the colder conditions.
Wow 😳 I would never have thought that such a place close to equator would have such a northern topography or geography :/
But still very interesting and cheers for sharing
Hawaii you can snowboard and ski high on the volcanic mountain then go swimming in the warm water.
I’d definitely watch a video on this
Chimborazo
That was interesting! An example in Ireland would be the Burren in County Clare, another karst region. While Carboniferous limestone is very common in Ireland, here it was exposed due to glacial and human activity. The limestone pavements resemble the lunar surface and the region has very little surface water, with it draining underground into caves. The Burren has a high level of biodiversity including unique Mediterranean, Alpine and Arctic flora which cannot be found anywhere else in Ireland.
Or the world as it is unique to that area
It would be really useful if you included a map showing the location of these places. Even a very rough location would be great. The whole point of this series is that they're out of place, so being able to appreciate just how out of place they are depends on knowing what place they're even in.
I visited south Greenland when I was a teenager. I found the landscape and fauna to be very similar to that of Iceland.
Most people don't realize just how large Greenland is, and not all of it is a frozen wasteland.
In northern Mozambique, there is an almost untouched rainforest at the top of Mount Lico, which stands out starkly from the surrounding landscape from satellite view.
Oh that’s very cool thanks for sharing
Gonna check that out, thanks.

Oleskivsky peski (Олешківськи піски) - Out-of-place desert in southern Ukraine, surronded by forests and agricultural land, one of only two deserts in Europe. It also has circular shape. Was formed by a flock of sheep in 1800s
it's not a desert, it's a sandrift
There are more than 2 deserts in Europe
Going off of the desert in Maine you had from your last video, another cool place is lake Athabasca provincial park in Saskatchewan Canada. It’s a “desert” That is actually a massive Sand dune that is actually visible from space because it’s so big. Another interesting fact about it is that it’s so far north it actually is further north than the lower panhandle of Alaska.
Theres also the Cypress hills, which is a lodgepole pine forest smack dab in the middle of the driest part of the prairies
Actually?
Technically anything can be seen from space if in the open
@@norml.hugh-mann i'm talking about naked eye from space
Tually.
Oregon would be a great state to look at. When most people think of the pacific northwest, they think of pine trees, mountains, and rain. Most don't realize the pacific northwest is the largest temperate rainforest in the world. Weirder than that, most don't realize the entire east side of Oregon and Washington is extremely dry highland desert. The rain shadow the cascade mountain range creates is extremely clear from a satelite view. (Cascade mountain range is totally separate and hundreds of miles away from the rockies) In the span of a 20 minute drive you go from dense rainforest to brown desert. Then you have other anomalies, on the west side of the state near Florence right in the middle of the forest is miles of sand dunes mean while central Oregon is a bunch of desert canyons. Going through the cascade mountain range is a massive canyon called the columbia gorge and is a protected nature reserve. Most people know of Multnomah falls but are unaware that there are hundreds of these waterfalls in that gorge and are unaware of just how big it is. The PNW has every biome you can think of except tropical.
Utah also has such diversity
Great points about the beautiful and interesting Northwest! In addition, in the midst of the Olympic Rainforest area is another rain shadow around Sequim, which allows for an agriculture extended (year long?) produce growing season.
_and_ it has some pretty interesting geology! agates/jaspers are very common and more in the eastern/central part of the state, there's an abundance of "thundereggs", which are essentially agate geodes. plus there are oregon sunstones which i believe are a bit of a mystery however i haven't done much research into that myself.
P.S. "oregon" is pronounced "oh-re-gen" (hard G) :) lots of people can't pronounce it for some reason
Also of note is that the tallest tree in the world used to not be the Coast Redwoods, but the Douglas Firs before they were all logged. There are literally dozens of accounts of 400ft+ trees in Washington, however they resided in the Puget Lowlands, sort of by the foothills, and thus were logged early on for timber and to clear the land for farming (the whole region of the Puget Lowlands is now very heavily populated and pretty destroyed, sadly). There was even a tree called the Nooksack Giant which was supposedly 465ft tall, measured after it was cut down. The Columbia river also used to host one of the largest waterfalls in the world by flow rate, before it got drowned behind a reservoir. The PNW is a land of lost giants.
@@nuniyoa Oregon thunderegg collecting is great! There's literally dozens of various unique thunderegg locales, much of them in the Ochoco mountains. Their formation is also a bit of a mystery. They are found all around the world but the *vast* majority are in the American west and even then the vast majority of those are in Oregon.
The Colombian desert Peninsula was something I had wondered about for a long time ever since I found it randomly one time on google maps. Never decided to search it up so I was glad to learn something about it on here. Turns out its more interesting than I could have ever imagined. Keep these types of videos coming.
I found a video on the channel "casual earth", where he explains the phenomenon how it was created, worth checking out
In center of India's Maharashtra state is Lonar Lake, a near perfect circular lake formed by a meteor strike some 50,000 years ago. The soil, being made from the remains of the meteor allows for alkaline water to settle after the monsoon and metallic sand along its shores. The lake is home to unique organisms due to the water and soil composition, and the surrounding crater rim protects this micro biosphere from contamination from the outside environment. It's a very interesting place to visit.
Not sure if you covered this in your US out of place geography videos, but the Lost Forest in Oregon is an isolated pine forest in the middle of the remote and arid high plateau country of central Oregon. It is 40 miles away from the nearest water source.
Not so much out of place but I'm always curious to learn more about Lesotho. Landlocked by one country, it's lowest point is higher than a lot of countries highest points. Even its motto "The Kingdom in the Sky" is cool
Troodos mountains in Cyprus are home to the southernmost ski resort in Europe due to their surprising volume of snow on and island associated with dryness, sunshine and holidays
In sweden there is the great alvaret, an arid and open area with little vegetation on the southern part of the öland island, it is very different from the forest and farmland that covers the rest of the island.
Funny enough there is the same landscape on the northern interior of Drummond Island in the state of Michigan here in the US.
A suggestion, often when ppl think of Australia, they think of desert, beaches and heat.
However, Australia also has cool climate regions that are Alpine and Sub-Alpine in NSW, Victoria, ACT and Tasmania.
Snow can cover the ground for 5-6 months of the year where instead of Pine trees that grow in other areas of the world, eucalyptus trees grow instead called Snow Gums. They are home for many species of animals unique to Australia, like your common kangaroo’s, wombat’s , rare frogs, possums and the very rare Alpine Dingo.
Australia is also home for the Southern Hemisphere’s largest ski resort, Perisher.
I don't think that really qualifies as 'out of place', the mountains, latitude and precipitation are cause enough for our snowy peaks. It really comes down to the lack of understanding most people have of our Aussie geography
Alpine Dingo? Never would of put those two together lol, thanks.
Dolly Sods in West Virginia. High elevation wetlands that contain unique plant and animal life more closely related to what you might find in eastern Canada. Also the US army used it as a mortar and artillery range, which is interesting!
The Pinacate peaks reminded me a little of Craters of the Moon in my home state of Idaho. It’s technically a dormant volcano, last erupting about 2000 years ago. The native Shoshone people were likely around to observe an eruption, as they have a myth about a snake coiling around a mountain, squeezing it, causing it to explode.
Other locations in the state worth a glance are the Bruneau Dunes, City of Rocks, and Thousand Springs.
Edit: How could I forget Shoshone Falls?
Don't forget Hells Canyon and the Salmon River Canyons. Greeting my fellow Potatoe, take care and God bless
You should look into the Palouse of eastern WA. Weirdest landscape I’ve ever seen. Felt like I was in a dr. Seuss book.
Florida is usually considered to be swampland, but in the Everglades there are these pockets of forest called “Hardwood Hammocks.” These forests are true rainforests, but only occur in small pockets in the Everglades where the elevation is high enough to not be flooded during rainy season, like the surrounding swamp. It might be cool to cover these in one of your videos
I always saw Florida as a swampy jungle.
Subtropical rainforest surrounding glaciers on New Zealand's South Island would be a good one next. Hell, the New Zealand forests themselves are practically ripped straight from the middle/late Cretaceous period due to the near perfect isolation and climatic stability for upwards of 100 million years - the Kauri forests are particularly spectacular. There weren't even any native mammals save for a couple species of bats until humans arrived. There also used to be the Moa, giant herbivorous flightless birds which really sell the whole "cretaceous park" vibe, at least until humans came and wrecked most of it.
Somewhere in the southwest USA in a rocky desert area is a small manhole size hole filled with water that leads to what is believed to be an underwater cave system. I think 'secureteam10' mentioned it in a video from several years back.
The amount of deserts in the world is always surprising to me, and I have no idea why. I just have this list of a half dozen or so deserts in my head that my brain says "yep, those are the deserts" and then I learn about new ones and something in my brain grinds against itself as I try to fit it in.
Did you know that Antarctica is the Worlds largest desert?
Lol 😊
Aren't the Indiana dunes out of place in Indiana?
I read this as Indiana Jones!
I'll again point out the Richat Structure in Mauritania, also called the Eye of the Sahara. It's a pretty crazy looking eroded geologic dome that is huge and ominously circular.
Also, the Porcupine Mountains in Michigan. They're mountains in a state you'd assume didn't have mountains.
Stannard Rock in the middle of Lake Superior is another mountain that pops from the lake floor like a pencil stood on its eraser.
Could you maybe cover the San Francisco volcanic field in a later video? It is quite out of place in the forests of northern Arizona
i like these ones
I love this channel sm and have been watching for years. And despite being subscribed for so long and using UA-cam almost every day I have never had one of your videos recommended or pop up in my feed. Every few weeks/months I think oh shit I haven't seen anything from them and search the channel to find 1 or more new uploads. Hate that algorithms won't show stuff even when you have specifically subscribed to see that content. Ik I'm preaching to the choir but on my end it seems to happen with this channel more than any other. Keep up the awesome work and I'll keep watching it even if UA-cam doesn't want me to see it lol. 💛
you could talk about the Hoh Rainforest on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, it's a temperature rainforest.
There is a region in Tajikistan that is like the chocolate hills but much more pronounced. Looks like giant ant hills as far as the eye can see. To this day I’ve never seen a landscape like it.
What is the name of the place?
The Driftless Area of of SE Minnesota and SW Wisconsin is the only area in hundreds of miles of flat or gently rolling countryside that never experienced glaciation and has picturesque and distinctive, deeper v-shaped river valleys and steeper hills. This area has always been intriguing and attractive to me.
Include the Halsey National Forest in NW Nebraska on a future vid. It is really out of place with the landscape around it. It's a man-planted forest but it does appear to work for where it is.
Look into the state of Nevada with some of their oasis they have. Also the island of Tristan de cuna is pretty cool and Christmas island in the pacific ocean.
I need some more the us explained vids please. Love watching them. Traveling and geography of the us are awesome to me! Thanks for the vids!!
The Cypress Hills in Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada are really cool and interesting place seemingly rising up from flat treeless prarie around it
Saba in the Netherlands is quite an anomaly. It's the highest mountain of our Minecraft superflat nation.

I've been a few miles from the pole of Inaccessibility in South Dakota - after eating the best tasting beef I ever had in a hamburger at a gas station in Martin, SD served by the Oglala Sioux. The region is beautiful and I passed through the town of Kyle on the way Badlands. Years later, after seeing the eclipse in the middle of nowhere in Nebraska, I went north and ended up at Smith Falls state park in Nebraska near the SD border, cold spring water fed waterfall you could go under several hundred yards from the wild & scenic Niobrara river. One of the most enjoyable places I've been in possibly the most middle of nowhere place in the continental US - other than possibly certain parts of extreme northern Nevada.
Thank you so much for this! I have a fascination with Greenland and have been trying to correct people on the internet for the last 10 years, or so, who recite the the false notion "Iceland is green and Greenland is Ice." It's been so frustrating but I try to point out the green southern landscapes and the forests in Greenland, so thank you for showing this to a wide audience!
Another great video as always. Kinda obsessed with South Greenland since it was first an abandoned Viking settlement before anything else and still seems kind of ideal as one of those picture perfect eco-tourism hideaways like Fogo Island Newfoundland or The Blue Lagoon in Iceland...
algorithm bump, good content man
Great Stuff, love your content. Re: Suggestions, there's stone forest in Madagascar that's spectacular.
Great video!!!
Fantastic. I feel a binge coming on 😁
Really neat series!
Rangipo in New Zealand it is an area that recives plenty of rain but due to poor soil and harsh winds it closely resembles a dessert
Really appreciate, very enjoyable! Ty
love this series!!
Awesome video!
Loving this series👍
Stone Mountain in Georgia paired with Uluru (Colonian name Ayer's Rock) in the Northern Territory of Australia would be very interesting because they were formed in completely different ways over 15000km apart yet look extremely similar. An interesting geology lesson is time spent wisely in my book.
Panola and Arabia Mountains as well ,never knew about them until flying into ATL one day. Years later I found out the names of those plutons.
I grew up in PTC and Newnan Ga.
It is soo weird that I literally still remember perfectly the first time I heard that infamous "double inaptronym" (Greenland/Iceland). And that was at the movie theater seeing the classic, D2: The Mighty Ducks. I was in 3rd Grade, & somehow and for some reason still can see that scene so vividly. LOL.
Thank for this.
I plan to go through there next year.
You should talk about Heart Mountain in Wyoming. It has a limestone peak. Normally limestone is at the bottom of a mountain, but the peak was pushed south from the Arctic Circle by glaciation. Then the limestone peak was pushed up by plate tectonics.
These are fantastic.
I love your videos! ✌🤟
How about the sutter buttes in central California? It is an extinct volcano that was recently made a state park where the us military used to store nukes in bunkers they dug in the volcanic rock and people now sneak in to the abandoned bunkers to have illegal raves. It's not only a geological oddity but weird history. If anyone wants to go there please take me it's a few hours from my house and I'd love to film it, my car needs work to get there.
Arizona's Sky Islands is a good one. The Coronado National Forest surrounded by the Sonoran Desert.
I've been to Nuuk, Greenland. I saw like 3 small spruce trees lol they were in people's yards
If I remember right, the real reason Greenland and Iceland have their names is because the Vikings at the time didn't want people invading their colonies, so they named their largest ones under deceiving names. "Iceland" is actually very lush and green, and extremely habitable under normal conditions. "Greenland" on the other hand is basically just a giant glacier with some rocks and soil, and it's not very habitable unless you're equipped for it.
Wow, I did not know some of these places existed! Other examples of interesting geography are the island of Socotra, off the coast of Yemen and a Brazilian national park just to the east of Sao Luis, filled with sand dunes and blue water! Parque Natural Ria Lagartos in Mexico also contains some fascinating multicolored ponds.
So cool!
Great video.
You should do an episode on The Eye of the Sahara/The Richat Sturcture. It's a geological anomaly in Mauritania that is believed to be formed by an ancient volcano but no one is really sure.
The Kentucky bend is a portion of the state that is cut off by the Mississippi river. You cant actually get to this area from Kentucky, you have to get there through other states.
I was going to mention the Colombian Guajira Desert & then saw you saved it for last. Can’t think of any other weather/natural anomaly off the top of my head, but I’m sure we’ll see in a future video of yours
Please make a part 4 we all enjoys these
These videos are cool. I live in the Ozarks, but I've always found the St. Francis mountains in SE MO interesting.
Awesome video! I like this series. And shout out to The Alchemist!!!
Other out of place places I can think of : Monegros hills in northern Spain, sea of sand near Paris, Tesco park in the Scilly island's, Valentia island off Ireland, laurisilva of la Gomera...
Alberta has a weird desert in its extreme Northeast corner on Lake Athabasca with Arabian style dunes and everything. It's really hard to access though since no roads have yet to reach that part of the province (at least paved year round ones) and the nearest town is ghost community called Uranium City, Saskatchewan which is worth a video onto itself. It was critical in making the first atomic bombs and remains a huge supplier or yellowcake uranium to this day... Even if only about 100-150 people live amongst the 5000-7000+ person townsite it once was... Pine Point, NWT nearby also suffered the same fate except they burned down most of that town as a training exercise if I'm not mistaken!
This is really good! You are obviously your own person. The only thing I could ask for is more data towards how these formations occur. You will find no shortage of specialists in this field. In fact, some who have dedicated their lives to this research would have their own wet-dream so to speak. Just for a good chance of show-and-tell.
very cool!
Check out the big concentric circular formation in Mauretania. And Fundy Bay in Nova Scotia.
There is a somewhat similar area to the island in the Phillipines in Nebraska, along the Missouri river, bordering Iowa - driving south from West Sioux City toward Omaha where the Winnebago & Omaha Indian Reservations are located. They are shaped like Hershey's Kisses and you ride up and down. They're at the eastern edge of the sandhills, but distinctly different to me from the Loess Hills several miles inside the border of Iowa.
The La Guajira Peninsula may be unique for Colombia, but it shares its arid features with the islands of Aruba, Curacao, and Bonaire (all in the Dutch West Indies), as well as nearby locations in Venezuela.
You might be interested in the Okanagan Valley in the Canadian province of British Columbia.
Hopewell Rocks in New Brunswick (cool rock formations), the north of Kazakhstan (heavily forested), and the Caspian Hyrcanian rainforest in Iran are all cool out place geographical anomalies.
*northeast of Kazakhstan
Pico de São Tomé is a fun looking one. Maybe it’s too well known but tepuis would be interesting.
Just down the road from me... the Great Sand Dunes, in Colorado's San Luis Valley.
In New Zealand there’s a volcano called mount taranaki which has a perfect circle of forest around it. It looks really cool on Google maps
Yeah it’s because the national park’s boundaries are measured from the summit of the mountain. The forest is a lot darker than the farmland.
I suggest checking out the Thunderbolts Project for the work Andy Hall has done explaining many geological features in terms of the electric universe paradigm. He's heavy.
The inland dunes (deserts as some call it) in the Netherlands. Kootwijkerzand, Loon en Drunen dunes. To name the two largest
I just subscribed. Have done the Flint Hills in Kansas yet?
En Santa Marta, near La Guajira, they call the intense wind "La Loca"
An example in France would be the Dune du Pilat. A massive desert-like sand dune in the midst of normal France directly at the Atlantic Ocean.
You should do one on the Driftless area of NE Iowa, SW Wisconsin, and SE Minnesota
You should do a video about the dutch dunes. De duinen are place in the forest with only sand. Like the Soesterduinen.
What an amazing world we live in!!!
The painted hills in oregon. They look like Dr seuss rounded hills of purple red and striped yellow and orange. Fossils everywhere
Here are some others:
The hyrcanian forest, Iran
Colchic forest, Turkey
Hey I'm from Venezuela, glad to see my country mentioned.
lovely
In Saskatchewan, Canada, there is a giant sand dune by Uranium City.
Love the videos man. Keep it up!
Check out the Kutkhiny Baty in Eastern Russia. I stumbled across it just browsing Google earth a while ago
Some examples from my beautiful country 🇨🇱: Atacama Desert (Pampa Yungay near María Elena being the dryest point in the dryest (hot) desert in the world); Cerro Dragón in Iquique (Largest Urban Sand Dune); Valle del Arcoíris, Moon Valley, and Cordillera de la Sal near San Pedro de Atacama; "Oasis de Niebla" (Fog Oases) near Paposo, "Capillas de Mármol" (Marble Cathedral) Formation near Coyhaique, the Valdivian Rainforest in South Chile being a Temperate Rainforest marvel, our many many lots of beautiful Volcanoes, Chile being the second country with most active volcanoes, there's the highest in altitude active Volcano Ojos del Salado, stunning Parinacota, Licancabur, Villarica, the Fuji-like Osorno and violent Cabulco (take a look at the electric lighting-ridden ash cloud in its eruption photos!) to and how to forget the Torres del Paine National Park!
Ah and how could I forget! The "Penitentes" Ice Pillars in the Atacama Desert (they've also been found on Pluto!) and the "Desierto Florido" (Flowering Desert) that springs up out of nowhere!
this is what I wish all the top 10 videos on youtube were like
The Forest are going back to a warming North .
Oil drillers , boring for samples , hit a redwood . 300ft long . North Allaska .
Osoyoos in Canada! A desert in the middle of two temperate rainforests.
The Burren in County Cork Ireland is a limestone desert.
