    Lol, I love Tom kinda losing his mind and pursuing "Frozen lake festivals", essentially something he's made-up
    (EDIT: I understand that festivals on frozen lakes **do** exist in the history of the world, but my point is that there was no link to the lake in the photograph. Remember, the only reason Tom started the 'festival' line of thinking was because his MS paint recreation of the bollard started bringing up image search results of garden lighting, and he started convincing himself that it was a permanent lighting fixture for when the lake was frozen! (the main evidence of the existence of these seems to be a 3D simulation of a flat plane!)
    With there being no true link between the photograph and frozen lake festivals, he may as well have been just googling "lake"!)

    One important clue was that while the lake was frozen, there was no sign of snow on the trees. A lake like this does not freeze over in a day or two. So you need an extended period of very cold weather, but it also has to be pretty dry, so it doesn't snow in that time.

    Solar panels (in the northern hemisphere) are usually oriented directly south to maximize sun exposure. Given that assumption and the relative orientation of the panel to the dam, the dam would be oriented in a northeast-to-southwest direction, which did indeed turn out to be the case!

    The best is when a new geodetective drops and you see it's 30+ minutes. You know then it's going to be a banger

    Tommy D, Great video, love to see the work go in. I'd like to see a segment at the end of these where you call up Yogi Yegglebirch or whomever, and show them that you found it. Maybe they even have to talk in a funny accent.
    Cheers.

    You definitely have a unique skill set and mind to be able to do this! I cannot believe how much you guessing at the trees being the right 'kind' ended up being helpful!

    Great work! I couldn't believe my luck, when only after a few weeks of subscribing to your channel, I noticed you'd been on the Things People Do podcast! One of my favorite podcasts. If you're still doing those straight line -walks, you should try doing that in Finland

    If it weren't for the different kind of trees, I'd have been certain it was Shawnee Mission Dam in Lenexa, Kansas. It is a dead ringer! Amazing work.

    Honored to see the Vasona reservoir cameo. It's currently a muddy hole in the ground and it never gets cold enough to freeze but it is in the same park as the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad.

    Watched through the playlist and all the way back at Ep9 (which is like less then halfway through the series at this point) you teased us with Hugo in the end, and NGL got curious about him... And well... We still havent done him XD

    Amazing job, and the video spiced up with so much funny moments. I bet you didn't wanted to show up too much from the second image reverse creation due to embarrassment 😅
    But honestly, I salute you for your tireless persistent! Thanks for the video!

    Well done, Tom! I'm from the northern midwestern US, and I was convinced that this location was somewhere around the Great Lakes region. I've spent a bit of time in the Rockies and New Mexico and I'd have never worked out that location as well as you did.

    Chef's kiss for The Waterboys appropriation! (And the California Girls backing track. Strawberry Fields was a bit of a stretch though...) The 'bollard' in the West Australian dam was actually the concrete water intake valve housing and would be around 8-10m tall, a bit bigger than what you were looking for!
