    Is it possible to make a huge man made dam where the glacial ice lobe was, and make a modern day lake Missoula reservoir..🧐

  • @oddsman01
    @oddsman01 2 года назад +3

    It’s amazing a glacier is capable of blocking so much water. If ice melts under pressure, there was a river of water under that mountain sized block of ice. It seems like it wouldn’t take long for extreme pressure at the base of the lake to find that river and begin carving a passage for water to flow and eat away chunks of the glacier long before the lake could reach the levels it reached.

      Why do people seem to think glaciers are nothing but water ice? You have massive walls of earth being bulldozed by the glacier called glacial moraines.

      It seems incapable because it is not possible in those real world conditions. Your interpretation is correct, the ice dammed lake theory is very lacking. Just look at what happened in Lybia with the engineered dam failing. Now multiply that up to scale and do it dozens of times, while the ice sheet is simultaneously retreating. It's a nonsense theory taught as fact.

    Is it possible that some of the water from lake Missoula made it's way down to fill lake Lahontan in western Nevada and eastern California? North of the Black Rock desert in Nevada almost to the Idaho border there is those circles scoured out of the rock in the landscape that look like rushing water could have formed them. I don't think all the water in Lake Lahontan could come from the Sierra Nevada Mountains by Lake Tahoe. Lake Lahontan was a very large lake also a thousand feet deep or so. The only part of it left is Pyramid Lake in Nevada.

    With all that water, the weight would be enormous. So how much weight would it take to push down the earth crust below it? I'm wondering if the weight was enough to let water flow over places like Thompson pass...where you can find rounded glacial till at near the top of the pass. there might also be other spots that water might have flowed over.

    • @richardservatius5405
      @richardservatius5405 Год назад

      then when the water of the lake went away, the earth crust might have rebounded, making it higher in elevation.

And, the current slowed, and it was a bit more clear, on the bottom.... One patch had a bunch of them tipped over, and tangled....

      I was just blown away, that I was basically strolling along, through a - standing - very thick Spruce forest... Like it were a fresh mowed Park. I even took my Doubles off, so I could swim under one that had fallen, long ago, that was 6 ft thick, at about 20 ft from the root-ball... And, the hole the roots left behind... Bark still on them all, too... And, they all had the same, slight lean. Incredible to witness! I want it studied! While I can still help. That was back in 1981... Looking for two dead fishermen, with Search and Rescue.
      And, I have a plan! And, it needs a good dive team... Preferable Saturation Divers... I want the first one. And, there are thousands and thousands of them!

    This map here of the glacier that dammed up the Clarkfork (2:40) is the largest I've seen presented, and they are never the same size. Obviously ice 2000 ft thick would pile up some large moraines, right? Please show me some, even one. If the ice that came out of Glacier Park, Hungry Horse, & the Swan Valley produced one over 440 ft tall above shoreline of Flathead Lake, why are they missing here in Idaho with your many different spreading lobes?

    I have a problem with a glacier flowing from the Kootenai Valley which is the southern end of the Purcell trench. The mountains of the Cabinets and the Selkirks only leave a gap of 5 miles at the 3100 foot level. I would think any glacier moving thru that gap would be shattered up much like you see in modern photos of glaciers. Another problem would be the fact that the elevation at Bonners Ferry is some 300 feet lower than the elevation just north of Lake Pend d Oreille which is over 2100 feet while Bonners is 1760 or so. I would think this would hamper the "sliding" of the glacier out of the Purcell trench somewhat. Also as you go north into British Columbia the valley floor gets lower still with low water levels at Kootenay Lake being 1738 feet and the lake being as deep as 400 feet. Seems like a glacier would have more or less been trapped by the lower ground it was sitting on.

    • @swirvinbirds1971

      Sliding? Glaciers push in like bulldozers. Trapped in the low points? Not with an entire continent of ice pushing behind it.

      @trebornoslo1951 Год назад

      @@swirvinbirds1971 I realize that glaciers do "push like a bulldozer" but there is no evidence of moraines left behind as the glacier would have melted back north on the flat ground just north of the Sandpoint area. Seems like there would have been moraines left in that area. There are none in the Kootenai Valley as well and no dropped boulders on the valley floor that might have been trapped in floating icebergs while there was a sizeable ancient glacial lake.

    The so called high water lines could not have been made by multiple floods. The lines are carved into the rock in an almost measured sequence going down. This is impossible for multiple floods to be this exacting. They are grooves carved from the receding of a single flood.
