  • There are over 3,000 meadows in Yosemite National Park, but they only cover 3% of the area of the park. They make up for this small percentage by providing habitat for a wide variety of plant and animal species.

    Please keep making these videos! I love the historical accuracy all the old pictures and just everything! I visited two weeks ago and had so much more appreciation for certain aspects through watching all of these videos. Love you YNP!!

    My family has a meadow with a grove in the middle where my family will spread ashes. It is out special place. It’s beautiful and it ties us forever to the land and nature.

    What an absolute wonderful video. I love the awareness of it's history, I love the focus on it's native and natural ecosystem and I just love the calmness of this video. Such beautiful views, sounds and such composed speakers. Especially love that park ranger that serves to protect the land of her ancestors. So good, thank you.

    Yosemite is a beautiful place that always restores my soul!
    Meadows are a key part of the experience of the park. This video shows the meadows in all their grandeur along with explaining their history.
    Well done Yosemite Conservancy!!

    How are the bees doing in Yosemite? Thriving or dying? I hope and pray they are happy there among the wildflowers.

    I really wish I could visit out West to Yosemite, but unfortunately, the pandemic has restricted our traveling, so I'll have to wait a few more years. I'm also really conflicted about when to go, as the landscapes look amazing in the Winter, but in the Summer, the landscapes are amazing as well, and more hikes will be open. I think, if I had to choose, I'd probably pick the Summer, and it's for the exact reason that this video describes. The meadows just look too great to pass up. Also, as a person interested in birds, it would be great to go see some birds we don't get here on the East Coast. We do get stuff like the Red-winged Blackbird at 0:15 (especially in the Summer), but I don't think I've ever seen a Yellow Warbler, like the one at 7:00. That's not to say we don't get them on the East Coast, but living in a suburban neighborhood, we don't get too much avian diversity.

      That being said, I've only really been interested in Ornithology for a view months, so I'm excited to learn more in the near future.

    2:30 where is that ? Wow!!

      If you mean the two people walking, that could be many different places. If you mean the people walking on the boardwalk, that one looks like Stoneman Meadow near Curry Village. Also, between Southside Drive and the Merced River there is a meadow with boardwalks through it, just before you get to the church, and Cooks meadow, near Sentinel Bridge.
      I have feeling though, you meant the two big trees at 2:20. That's probably the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias.

    • @leorents505
      @leorents505 5 лет назад +4

      Oops yes @ 2:20 indeed! Those two big trees, wow! Ahh I held back from going to Mariposa Grove this July that I went! Wow why did I do that, now I’m reminiscing :( That’ll be the first place I head to next time I go out there to camp! :) thank you trimmoos!!

      Leo Rents Mariposa Grove is stunningly beautiful! I was there in 1997 and hope to make it back one day soon.

      In the credits, you will have to contact Steven M. Bumgardner to find that out.
      By the way, that's a nicely done video on your channel! _Outdoor Pursuits Presents "Nature Near You"._

    Yet President Trump wants to open National Parklands to the mining of natural resources. :-(
    My last visit there in 1964 reminds in my memories through B & W vacation photos and memorabilia, during which a friend and I spent several days in a rental cabin...

    why does the parks deny the strange disappearances in yosemite.
    why are people found dead with no shoes on, constantly
    how are they travelling distances opposite of basic survival instincts (going uphill rather than downhill, etc)
    why do kids disappear and are found 10 miles away on the other side of mountains
    kids wont venture that far from parents knowing the dangers of wildlife and getting lost
    there are people commonly found dead with no animal predation
    dogs cant track scents after a certain distance (NOT POSSIBLE AS THE CLOSER YOU GET THE BETTER THE SCENT)
    Why do you hide the amount of missing without a trace
    never travel alone, always have GPS and self protection, always tell people your exact plan and FOLLOW IT

    One hundred million dead trees in California's forests.

      Many more than that die without the help of people. It's a part of a bigger cycle that few want to understand because, it looks "ugly". Nature is indifferent.

  • @TheRadioAteMyTV

    Do they get paid extra to say "diversity", or is it their version of "like" that Valley Girls over use?

  • @TheRadioAteMyTV

    I love Yosemite and go there all the time, but can we get our propaganda straight in these videos? A) Preaching "biodiversity" as if that was something new or unique is misleading at best. B) Then it goes on to tell us brown man good that he burns down all the trees and later that white man is bad because he let them grow back. WHAT? That's a twist. Too bad the Amazon doesn't get that type of praise when their brown people burn their trees like the summer of 2019, et. al. C) And as for the "European Americans" label, thank you identity politics for preventing people from ever being called Americans no matter how long they have lived here - unless they are dreamers of course, because "they become American before a lot of Americans become Americans". So apparently the park service is backing up Joe Biden on that statement. D) They didn't just "displace" the locals, they hunted them down and killed them for sport and won awards each week in San Francisco for it. if you can believe Ken Burns in The West PBS series. Remember also, Yosemite, means "those who kill", because that is what they said when the saw the pale folk arrive. YOSEMITE!!!!!!! Looking forward to more beautiful videos but really, get your "narrative" worked out will you.
    PS. The most famous parts of Yosemite are because a glacier cut them and then completely melted away leaving the valley. So, thanks Global Warming for giving us such a beautiful park! We couldn't have done it without you.

      Ahwahnechee (Piute and Mono) and the Miwuk actually did the control burns to prevent crowding of the forests in the Valley so, one small fire wouldn't conflagrate into one massive one to protect the Oaktrees. Acorns were a part of their diet. They literally inspired modern controlled burns. They were geniuses. This aspect is backwards because, it's not agenda driven. It's the truth in every diverse forest. "Let It Burn" is the Yosemite way. It's the real ingredient for a healthy forest. It took the eruption of Mt. Saint Helens non-indigenous people to see when, the Natives were right all along. You also confirm the non-indigenous way as wrong by pointing out the inconsistency from the typical narrative which is funny. It's jarring for tree huggers but, that is mother natures way and I personally find it beautiful how much nature can endure and produce more abundance after the forest is chopped down and burned down.

    The only problem with meadows is they attract a boat load number of mosquitoes 🦟 because meadows soak up so much water
