As someone who lived in the lower mainland of BC, growing up being told that upstream was tons of volcanoes that are due for erruption in the next year to 100 years, was terrifying.
Since the big slide in the Chilcoltin Geology Hub has been highlighting more of our Volcanic history here on the Western part of Canada. I love watching Nick Zentiner but he only really covers what is in Washington and other states close to Washington. He has worked with some geologists from Vancouver island and also in Kamloops. The whole drive from the westcoast to Kamloops you can see a volcanic story right through the province. I have always found it fascinating. A few years ago I camped at Wells Grey Park and we did the boat tour up to some of the big lakes and you can see some of the volcanos up there. The fellow I am with has a small cabin on Shuswap Lake and we went up to the big lake to Seymour Narrows. We saw a waterfall called Albas Falls. There is volcanic history right in Revelstoke with Mt Begbie. I had a discussion with a guy yesterday in Squamish about Volcano’s. I have always love the Garibaldi area. I love the Pacific North West. The cost of living here has become insane. But I cannot see myself anywhere else. I love Geology and BC and Yukon have some of the best in the world.
I have been to Clearwater many times and our neighbours daughter lives there. We have fished many of the lakes in the area and if you gain some height you can see some of these cinder cones. I live on McLeod road pronounced Ma Cloud
That's interesting...I live about 40 miles south of Clearwater and I didn't know that about the volcano. Beautiful park, Helmcken Falls, wildflowers and so much more to explore...a real jewel in British Columbia!😊🇨🇦
He said the most recent eruption was 1550, Jamestown was founded in 1607, so the most recent eruption was 57 years before Jamestown. Roanoke Colony in North Carolina was founded in 1585 though, so 35 years after the last eruption.
Been looking forward to this one, only a short drive for me. I have been to Flour Mill, plan to make it to Kostal Cone one day, but it's a all day hike to get to it.
I love this volcano, just simply because its vaguely related to an almost LIP sized volcanic province (the Chilcotin group obviously). Its just so neat to think that a massive geologic province is at least somewhat still active. Additionally, Kerguelen (which is the most recent true mantle plume head derived LIP) weirdly has some very young volcanics left over, which may even be dormant and not extinct. It waned very very slowly, there's no threat of anything problematic for it (the productive LIP phase is well and truly over as of millions of years ago) but once again its fascinating to think that a true LIP still has some gasps of life left in it. Unfortunately this volcanism is ridiculously obscure and basically not studied at all but its cool to muse about.
This reminds me, where there any updates about that mystery volcano in recent Canadian history? The volcanic mysteries and historical years we later find massive eruptions are my favorite videos to share. A new list or compilation about "years without winters" or big eruptions we know happened but not where would be excellent content.
That is in the far north of the park in a very inaccessible spot, which is why it went undetected for so long. I don't know about permits, but you'd have to be advanced mountaineer to even get near the mouth, and don't think anyone's been any further.
I've always been interested to know why there was a million dollar fine for anyone who went looking for it. Always wanted to hear more about it since I've been up in that area (North of Azure lake, trying to get a view of the unclimbed Mount Hugh Neave)
Amazing place to visit. Clear day from mountain top of myrtle lake gives you a view of multiple old cones. Makes you feel like your not even present on modern earth. Great reminder how active this area was and will be forever
The drive through Clearwater Canyon is spectacular, but not for big motorhomes. There are viewpoints and parking lots at Helmcken Falls and other scenery. There is a lookout where you can see the Kostal Cone from the road. It's a few km hike to the cone itself. Bear spray is always a good idea in these forests. Other than that Clearwater is known for white-water rafting.
I hiked into Kostal Lake and climbed the side of the Kostal cone back in the 90's. It was an incredible experience. Sadly BC Parks decommissioned the trail there many years ago and it's now impassable. The trail was much more than a few kms and in fact used to go all the way to Murtle Lake.
"Many people incorrectly think that Canada does not contain any active volcanoes" ... Including some of us Canadians that live in the Neighborhood (ish). Pretty cool
I certainly don't know, but there's a comment elsewhere from someone who says they're local to the area who says that it's pronounced "mac-lee-od", so close to how it was pronounced in the video. Surprised me, though, but I'm from Alberta.
@@gam3rtag3r13 Well you're pronouncing it wrong then, but I'm NW of you, in Prince George where they pronounce Tabor Mountain - Tayber. It's named after Biblical Mount Tabor - Tahboor. I guess I'm that person too.
@@gam3rtag3r13 Thank you for the coreection, that name is usually a Scottish or Celtis Surname, said Mac-Loud or Ma-cloud. Fun to learn new things tho!
@@gam3rtag3r13 I'm from Alberta and was just about to claim "M'cloud" (which is how I certainly would have said it without local knowledge), but I'm glad I noticed your comment before mouthing off.
Just like how "Geoff" is Jeff ( not Gee Off). McCleod is "McCloud"(not Mc Clee Owd). Again, love your stuff... Just trying to point out some fundamental stuff...
The Mt Edziza Volcanic Field in northern BC was last active about 1000 years ago. Mt Garibaldi near Vancouver is only classified as dormant, not extinct.
in 1985, there was a huge earthquake that rocked williams lake, and the source was in this geographic area. this area is anything but dormant, just not as active as the pacific ring of fire...
How likely are the dry coulees in Eastern Washington State related to the possible outflows from these glacial lakes? To me the dry coulees seam too large, and orientated wrong for them to have been cut by outbursts from Lake Missoula. Yes,, the outbursts from Lake Missoula were huge, but not big enough, nor aligned right. The dry coulees are all pointed north across the border into Canada. Nick Zentner @GeologyNick asked some questions that asked if this could have happened. Also these volcanoes are nicely situated for providing the needed huge amounts of water needed to cut the dry coulees.
Video "Bretz's Spokane Flood & The Missoula Floods" by Nick Zentner (@GeologyNick, Apr 2024) talks about these outflows. What evidence there is they happened.
there was a "Missoula" like event in BC that flowed down into Wa. and even Oregon. My suspicion is that large meteor claimed by native in Oregon (they won their case; it's on load to the Natural History Museum) is probably NOT from Oregon at all, and could well be from Canada or Montana.
I would love to understand more about monogenetic vents. I just don't understand how it is possible. I would think it would be the path of least resistance for any future eruption. Why would it try and take a harder path when there is one that already exists?
Great video! It connected a lot of dots for me and tended to reinforce some ice age stories for sources of water for outburst flooding. I do not mean this in anyway critically, but Mcleod is pronounced "ma - cloud" for future reference.
I have a question, is it possible that White Island in New Zealand could collapse, it seems to be getting a lot higher above sea level with a sharp peak ?
Paricutin volcano is called "dormant". But by this definition is it more accurate to state that it is "active"? Or are these Canadian volcanoes more accurately described as "dormant". Is "dormant" an aspect of "active"?
Each monogenetic vent is extinct as soon as the eruption ends. Dormant or active will be used on the whole system instead. Michoacán-Guanajuato (where Paricutin is) and Wells Gray-Clearwater are considered active due to their very recent eruptions.
In 1974 I worked at Wells Gray, Hendrix Lake, in the Molybdenum mine there inside one of the old volcanoes. I mastered all the machinery of the mine and they put me into a blasting party of 4 of us who set a blast of 65 cases of what we called horse cock and on a friday they emptied the mine opened all the doors and windows and being the green horn they let me set er off. Shook the mountain it did. During a lunch break outside the tunnel we were at, Whiskey Jacks would come land on our boots, as we sat on the ground, and we could feed them. One of the fellas says to me, "You know theres a volcanic vent a few hundred yards from where we sat." this was news to me but didnt affect how they thought about working there so I gave it only a cursory examination but it wasnt long after that I pulled out and headed for Rock creek where I joined in a Commune of young hippies where I made friends and settled down for a few years. Only one of those folks still walks the earth and he is my oldest freind here in the west. Knowing what I know now I wouldnt venture such a foolhardy occupation I recon. I'm 76 now and 77 isnt far off. Life here in BC for 50 years is so satisfying even though there were some hard times getting to here. No regrets except for that pretty little hippie girl I left behind in the Cariboo. I made sure she was with a prosperous cowboy we all liked before I gave her up. She had a better life than I could have offered her at the time.
I worked at Placer Development's Endako Mine, (another BC molybdenum ore producer), same time as you're at Noranda's Boss Mountain at Hendrix Lake. But Endako never went underground like Boss Mtn did. Apparently they call Boss mountain by Big Timothy Mountain now and it has a Wiki page mentioning it's a cinder cone if anyone doubts your story. We were lucky in BC back in the '70s, lots of interesting, high pay mine work.
that was the way then. we didn't get all in on young ladies our age being our "property" like so many stories to day. thought we left that in the sixties! you have to do what you have to do.
3:10 I just love the designation of EOCENE CLIMATE OPTIMUM of a ten degree warmer Earth. This is serious science, disproves the crazy theory of a runaway greenhouse effect and tells us that warmer temperatures are better, up to a limit of closely below our body temps.
The Optimum here is in the sense of highest, not of best. Humans would not even split from apes for another ~41 million years, or become anatomically modern a few million years after that. The climate of Earth having been that hot in the past does not mean that would be good for us. The mean temperature from the EECO would probably not have been a massive problem for us, but that's the mean. Given daily and seasonal temperature variations many days would be significantly above mean, and in humid environments that would already be fatal several degrees below body temperature. As a final note, unlike now the temperatures during the EECO were not achieved in the span of a few odd centuries. Temperature in itself isn't the problem-Earth was in fact better for life back then as you implied-the rate of change is. As is, life on Earth has barely any time to adapt to the new conditions.
Well this AI voice fooled us all, but it finally gave itself away in this particular naration. I mean: mac lee uhd? Ffs. The video creator didn’t even check his own video for such mistakes.

Yeah the volcanos in the states don’t exist here in Canada because they were denied access at the border😂,,it’s hard to even imagine being that stupid to think people believe that somehow volcanic activity doesn’t exist past the imaginary line people invented.

"Many people incorrectly think that Canada does not contain any active volcanoes" ... Including some of us Canadians that live in the Neighborhood (ish). Pretty cool
The T'seax cone in the Nass River valley erupted about 300 years ago. Possibly the last eruption in Canada.

I keep wondering if you have some sort of connection to Canada, as Canada gets ignored a lot.
ive been to wells grey it was very nice to see the water falls

Sorry to be that eprson, but Mcleod Hill should sound like Ma-cloud. Unless the locals say it Mac-lee-ud?
