What Lies Beneath
zhlédnutí 48Před rokem
Located about 50 miles northwest of Columbus, Ohio, Campbell Hill, at 1,549 feet, is Ohio’s state highpoint. The “hill” is actually a glacial moraine, left behind by the massive Laurentide Ice Sheet that covered millions of square miles of Canada and the Northern United States. Learn more in this next installment of Science Wednesdays!
The Billion-Year-Old Beartooth Mountains
zhlédnutí 67Před rokem
Granite Peak, the highest point in the state of Montana, located in the Beartooth Mountains, is known for its technical climbing routes and, because of this, along with poor weather and the challenging route-finding, it is considered one of the most difficult of the 50 US state highpoints. Learn more about it in this science video!

Torreys Peak: The Knife Edge Crossing
zhlédnutí 404Před 2 lety
On Saturday, June 11, we went up Kelso Ridge (exposed class 3 scrambling route) on Torreys Peak (14,267 ft.). Its neighboring peak, Grays, is the highest point along the continental divide, a drainage divide where on one side of the peaks, all water drains towards the Pacific and, on the other side, towards the Atlantic Ocean. Here’s a view of what it’s like to cross the famous “knife edge” alo...

    What does 'pole pole" mean, please?

    • @SummitsSongsandScience
      @SummitsSongsandScience Před 5 měsíci

      it means "slowly, slowly."

    • @Sifo_Dyas
      @Sifo_Dyas Před 5 měsíci

      @@SummitsSongsandScience I feel a great need to add to this. Of course you're right. The phrase got on my radar a few times in Tanzania and Zanzibar. I knew it literally meant "slowly slowly" but I got a sense it had a deeper meaning. After returning home so depressed that my vacation was over and searching CZcams for every version of the Jambo song I could find, I came across Ricardo's Kilimanjaro song here where he mentions pole pole. Then I started to dig a little more. I asked one of the guides I had in Zanzibar, Ahmad, and this is what he wrote: ’Pole Pole’ in Swahili does indeed mean “slowly” or “gradually.” However, it’s also used in various contexts to convey patience, caution, or a gentle approach. In the song you linked, it seems to emphasize taking things easy, enjoying life, and not rushing through experiences. In different situations, ‘Pole Pole’ can also imply taking care, being careful, or showing empathy towards someone facing challenges or difficulties. Overall, it carries a nuanced meaning of slowing down, being patient, and taking a relaxed approach to life. I will strive to embrace this phrase as my new mantra, and if I notice myself falling off course, I'll just pull up this song and Ricardo's smiling reminder.

    Interesting! Is the complete lack of melanin a genetic anomaly, that may occur randomly?

    • @SummitsSongsandScience
      @SummitsSongsandScience Před 5 lety

      Several genes provide instructions for making the proteins involved in the production of melanin, and albinism (complete lack of melanin) is caused by a mutation in one of these genes. Different types of albinism can occur, based mainly on which gene mutation caused the disorder.

    Re: Grizzly clip @end: Over half the times I've been on top of Grizzly, the winds were that bad (or worse!)! One of the few times me and my partners were knocked over by super high-winds was on the ridgeline to this summit. Having skis attached to packs actually gave the winds something else to bite into with a sail-like effect and helped in throwing us to the ground...
