I am a Geologist and say......Woah ! What a place to be during that earthquake ! Great job naming all the peaks!
@ariana ghandi 🤣😂
@Shubbit the fubbick ubbip!!! Geology is Land... Biology is organisms...
Yeah, I studied Geology years ago. Amazing footage, but you wouldn't get me up there lol. I had to hike up some pretty crazy places during my geology field camp class, but nothing quite like that.
@@IssuesWithMyTissues my geology field camp looked very similar to this above Yosemite and at the Nevada/Utah border.
Dam'nd great voice control.
Wow! Glad you made it to the top before the EQ. Thank God for the timing and for keeping you safe from harm yet allowing you an incredible experience . Thanks for sharing your video capture of such a rare event that you witnessed on the mountaintop of all places!
Yeah, but what about when he wants to go down? Earthquakes usually have aftershocks.
😦
@@rocketraccoon1976 We all know that God is in charge while traveling uphill and satan is in charge while going down. So thank satan for keeping this guy alive
@@travisk5589 no thank OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST ALWAYS AND FOREVER 🙏☝️✝️
Travis bwa hahahahaha
@John Patriot eagle freedom boner How dare you. This was clearly gods work
I experienced stuff like this of rock falling and dust in Mt San Gorgonio back in 1992 Landers/Yucca valley earthquake of 7.3 we were stuck at our campsite for like a week due to road closures of fallen boulders blocking the roads we survived eating white rice,peanut butter and jelly on flour tortillas and eggs for 4 days.was a crazy a experience I would never forget.
Haha wow the diet of champs
How scared were you guys?
Marky Marq very scared cause I was 12-13 yrs old specially feeling aftershocks of 3.0 and up every several minutes and the trees shaking and swaying and loud rumble on the ground
me2
At least you had tortillas.
I remember that day very well - an “earthquake sequence”
It’s really humbling to witness actual geologic time happening. To see what we almost never get to see or feel...the forces that build up and erode these mountain ranges. Think of the tens of millions of years that it took for those boulders to form and attain those heights. And you got to see them descend and tumble their way back down, almost like watching time itself speed up and happen. What an awesome and truly meaningful experience you were privileged to have. Congratulations...keep on truckin’ !
That certainly is something. To just happen to find oneself in that moment in time... and to be so positively sure that you know exactly what these processes are and what striations are caused from. Exactly eons ago this formed. oh that's this because of this nthat.Ya especially funny if you are privy to what is actually happening😎
The Earth is really incredible.
❤❤❤ better then 100 hollywood movies
I was camping with my pregnant wife and our parents in Yosemite Valley on May 2, 1983- the Coalinga quake. It was awe inspiring and a little scary to see the air fill with dust, campers and RVs bouncing off the ground and hearing rockfall all around the valley.
I've experienced the Sylmar quake, Northridge, Whittier and others but this was the most impressive to me based on my observations. I was in Huntington Beach on July 4, '19 and felt this quake quite strongly. What a thrill it must have been to be standing on a 13,000' mountain near the epicenter.
Thanks for sharing and glad you had a safe trip down the mountain.
I was in Compton July 4th and Hollywood July 5th (the much stronger one) . Scared the bejeezus outta me.
I was celebrating my birthday while the earthquake on July 5 hit lol. I didn't want to eat food afterwards.
Brave man... I would be terrified to venture down incase of aftershocks.. what a place to be to capture something I imagine not many get to experience. Great video .
I really respect your calm demeanor, and not swear words, just clam commentary. I was n the Borrego Desert during a quake, loved every second of it, very exciting to be part of mom nature!
About 15 years ago I witnessed a small rock avalanche in Glacier. It sounded like a jet over head, then I found the source of the sound and it was rockfall, probably a mile or so away. It was spectacular to witness.
Wow to be top of the Mt Irvine and feeling the quake. Scary but then witnessing the dust kicking up from falling rocks. Maybe it is the earth clapping for the lone trekker of sharing how mountains rise to their heights. Bet this is one time you will never forget how mountains come to being...thanks for such great view from the mountain top for those of us who could never make the trek. Appreciate your video. Now we get to learn where Mt Irvine n Consultation Lake plus Meysan Lake are located. Keep on trekking and keep on videoing.
I used to backpack the Sierra back in the 70s. Really loved the High Sierra and hiking the John Muir Trail. Best time to is late June when there is still lots of snow. Of course some years there is too much snow and you have to be prepared.
Excellent, rare and exceptionally well narrated footage of the Lone Pine earthquake.
Amazing footage. You probably had the best view of all the rockfall in the area!
I’ve always wanted to see the view from where you were....I tried to climb to Mt. Whitney a long time ago and only made it to where your video starts around 13,000ft....thanks to you I finally got to see the view...I was terribly sick with altitude at the time and had to be carried down quickly....absolutely great filming!!!!
Depending on what side of the fault you were on, and the type of fault itself, you may have gained elevation without moving.
Timing is everything. You are quite lucky to have been there for that.
That's a beautifully rugged part of the world.
So refreshing to hear the commentary on a video be more than just "Oh sh!t! Oh sh!t! Oh sh!t!"
Or Oh My God squealed on an endless loop!
Exactly. They must not teach ‘descriptive’ English WITH various adjectives in school anymore. Oh yeah....SCHOOL? They really DON’T’ ‘teach’ anymore do they....just indoctrinate
@Mark Hepworth that's because it's usually stupid tourists that rarely venture from the city. So when they actually experience nature they freak out.
Yep. Had enough of that.
If you didn't watch the TV laxative commercials, you wouldn't be so opposed to hearing, "oh shit" all the time!
Some of the landscape looks like another planet.
Yeah. I was thinking a back, of a real big dragon. :).
John Peric Amen.
I thought I was the only person that noticed that😄
Dude I was thinking the same thing.
I recently took a couple of trips to the Eastern Sierras. It is some of the most beautiful area of have ever seen in my life. From Death Valley to Reno, it is all amazing
Talk about being in the right place at the right time with a camera in your hand! Congratulations! Good job!
Been there (Whitney) and you brought back some good memories. Nice camera work young man 👍
Nice video. I've always wanted to summit Whitney. Watching your video just guaranteed I'm going to have to visit a few more peaks. Thanks for your video I'm sure it was one hell of an experience.
I'd be soooo paranoid on the way back down. Expecting rocks the size of VW bugs to roll down all around me any second! 😟
You had a once in a lifetime experience. Imagine the Lone Pine Earthquake of 1872 with 15-20 feet of vertical displacement.
That’s awesome footage! Glad you’re. 👍🏻 How fortuitous to be in the the right place at the right time. Thank you for your educational video, I’ve never climbed the mountains in CA, only in CO. My parents fortunately survived the 9.2 ‘Good Friday’ Earthquake on 3/28/1964 in Anchorage, AK, they’d rather not experience that again but they liked your video. Stay safe!
All I can say is you have guts. I would be so scared as I’m afraid of heights and afraid that a big rock would fall on me. But I can say what a beautiful view the mountains looks so majestic but it feels so sublime. Thank you for the video.
@Eaglette Of course you also don't want to be on top of the rock that decides it's going to be falling on down.
I was at Lake Sabrina at the time. I didn't see any falling rocks but I sure could hear them 😱 Awesome video🤙
I love it up there.
That sound was so scary, I wouldn’t know what to do... also amazing vantage point
Wow! What an experience!
I was ducking my head for you until I realized you were at the top.
So happy you're safe! And what a beautiful view!
What a beautiful and unique place to be during an earthquake! It as cool to hear those rocks falling, thank you for a peek.
With a voice so calm he could be reading an audiobook
Was the descent sketchy? Like "Is anything gonna fall on me?"
Great footage. I was hiking King’s Canyon when the earthquake hit. With granite walls towering above and rocks falling in several areas, I think your higher elevation was the place to be!
Outstanding video thank you for posting
When I lived in Southern California, if you thought you felt an earthquake, the thing to do was look at the mountains and see if there was dust kicked up.
DANIEL NORMAN yes!! Haha happens often
lol, when I lived in S.F., if your chair was rolling around the office while 50 women start screaming to Mother Mary in Tagalog, you knew it was an earthquake.
@Steve 'o yeah pools worked for me, I am in phoenix and an quake not too far east of LA woke me up with rattling windows and the pool looked liked it was boiling. I must be on some piece of rock that is, or is tied to, wherever that quake centered. 2001ish.
Evan Keal I felt the landers 92 quake in Tempe. Woke me right up. Being from SoCal I knew exactly what it was and called my parents.
DUDE! WHAT A HISTORICAL OPPORTUNITY YOU HAD, AMAZING!
Wow. What an experience. What timing!
Thank you for sharing this adventure.
This is one of the most amazing look into just how those mountains formed!!! The forces of nature are AWESOME!! Yeah!!
Imagine still being on the route up and seeing several giant rockslides. Yikes.
You won't have to imagine for very long
Nice! Very unusual....you must have been a bit nervous! At least you were on higher ground when it hit....Awesome video,,,thanks. Aftershocks must have been FREAKY
Solo climb? Intense footage your fortunate to have caught this footage from above, glad your safe also!
Illya Vasquez great timing! Thanks for sharing!
Well Done ! I really enjoyed the video. I've been to the tops of a couple of peaks. This brought me back. Thanks !
I don`t understand how so many humans can take nature for granted.
Les Rosin if you cannot take nature granted what can you? I mean nature will always be there. It isn’t going anywhere.
Biddy biddy biddy.
Granite*
Up there, seems everybody takes it for granite.
I agree with Les -- and Einstein. Maybe for different reasons.
“There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
- A. Einstein
Wow you were so calm. I am pretty sure I would have been more freaked out. Awesome footage thanks for sharing it.
Man, among all that loose rock....good thing you’re above the rock fall...
Wow, your voice sounded so calm. Weren't you even a little bit afraid that a bigger quake might hit and trap you up there? My husband and I live in Sylmar Ca. We experienced our first earthquake Feb 9 1971. Before that we had no idea we were sitting right on top of the San Andres fault. We lived just a block away from The Olive View Hospital that collapsed. The shaking was so violent I honestly thought it was the end of the world. I was young back then so it was very scary to me. I'm a lot more calm now, but not nearly as calm as you!!! LOL
@@illyavsroamings BTW I forgot to tell you how much I enjoyed your video! My husband and my son are both adventurous like you. I would be worried to death if there was an earthquake while they were on the mountain. Take care and be safe!
I was a kid in oc and still remember hiding under our heavy dining table. My sister got stuck in her room for a moment when the door frame jammed the door.
Witnessing firsthand how the Sierra Nevadas were made! Just an awesome experience. Thank you so much for sharing this.
This is the best "documentary" of that Sierra Nevada mountain region that I can recall ever seeing. Thank you very much for sharing your adventure and showing us the truly breathtaking scenery at 13K+ feet elevation. Btw, just wondering if the water in Mason Lake shown at the end of the video is potable . . . Anyway, can't thank you enough for sharing your amazing experience! 👍🏻
I am happy there are people who have the time for adventure...
Wow, that trip could have turned out ugly. I'm glad you are okay. Thanks for posting.
Wow,that's insanely gorgeous!Good thing you were on top of the peak.Grateful to be you right!Thanks for bringing us along. That was awesome.
Wow! Amazing, thanks for being there & staying safe.
Excellent video. I haven't been to the summit in a few years. Last time got caught in a lightning storm up there. Have to be ready for anything.
Wow 😳 intense. Why in the Lord would anybody thumbs down this video??????? I would’ve loved to of seen this😆😁😄😃😀!!!!
Great posting! The view is amazing. Many years ago I did the John Muir freeway. Mt Brewer was one of the peaks we did. Did that when I was 19, now I'm 58. Wonder if I could still do it. Hmm, I don't sit at a desk, I do physical hard labor daily so I might still be able to wrestle a 60 lb pack up and down those awesome ccc built trails....Thanks for posting and sharing your experience.
@Phil M i was in a mountaineering explorer post. we had to shoulder our packs at the meeting before we left and get on a bathroom scale. Weights were recorded and written down. We had to carry additional things that were split up amongst all the members, ice axes, cooking equipment etc etc. Despite the 60 lb pack i never ever got a blister on my feet. I dont know why other than maybe wool socks But everyone else did and boy did they suffer.
Great footage. Makes it easier to understand how mountains can weather down. I always think of it as just rain and wind but seeing all that dust and rock fall I bet earthquakes make a decent percentage of the wear and tear on mountain ranges. I'd love to know what percent each factor plays. Probably depends on the types of stone though. Thanks for sharing the vid!
I had the feeling I was on another planet. And even just watching it scared me. I wonder if you thought the whole mountain would came down if THE BIG ONE hit? You were brave to film this like it was just an everyday occurance!!!
You stayed calm and collected. Never panic. Great capture!
Nice video! Thanks for sharing! Incredible timing that you get to experience the power of nature and its effect. May God keep you safe!
I don’t know about anyone else but I was getting anxiety watching this! Holy smokes the power the earth has puts this into perspective for me on a whole new level! Thank you for sharing this experience with us!🇨🇦♥️
That must have been crazy. You kept cool and recorded instead of getting away from there. Wow!
We were supposed to hike Lone Pine Lake that week and got to cancel the trip. Thanks for the share!
Wow, thanks for the look around ! you are awful calm to be there with that happening around you ... cheers!
I grew up around there and I can't even name all the peaks! What an experience!
I was at Yosemite Village in July 1996 during the fatal glacier point/happy isles rock slide. This noise brought back a small taste of that experience.
A beautiful vlog! Amazing.
Great footage and a personal experience! You were thoughtful and calm enough to be quiet and let us hear the rock slides, not sure if I would have had the common sense to do that while filming. Can't even imagine what that would have felt like to be up there with that going down. I been up Mt. Whitney a few times, love the Sierra Nevada's. I was camping at Kearsarge Lakes and in the middle on the night the Pinnacles shed some of their rock, sounded like a freight train derailing. Luckily I was on the other side of the lake from them. Thank you again for the great footage, and safe travels!!
Yeah. I've walked through the devastation of the rockfall in Onion Valley below Kearsarge. Big rocks everywhere and dozens of trees smashed and broken like pencils.
Fascinating video. Glad you're safe! Your Guardian Angel must be workin' overtime! I subbed to your channel. I am a "Virtual Climber." At 82, all I can do IS watch, but I can pray for you and cheer you on! Last night I watched "Free Solo," the documentary about Alex Honnold's solo climb of El Capitan. Epic!
@@illyavsroamings 👍🤗
Wow!!! Beautiful pics of Mt. Irvine! Thanks!!! ❤
Beautiful and breathtaking. Thanks for sharing
Well done documentation. Safe trails...
I was just about 500 yards to the Whitney portal trailhead, hiking down from Mt Whitney that same morning. We felt the quake and saw lots of rock slides at the trailhead. It was quite an experience for sure. We were wondering how many people were up top. Really cool to see your video from the top as we only have video from the portal trailhead. Great filming!
What an awesome experience, your timing, sir, is impeccable ! So glad you made it safely down. Thank you for sharing such a cool happening. Now I don't have to wonder what it must be like, if there was a quake in the mountains ! 😊
This area has been the backdrop for many westerns over the years. It's good to see what the heart of this range looks like.
Hey that was great! Thanks for taking me up there,the earthquake was a bonus!
I was in the Trail of A Hundred Giants when a couple earthquakes hit The town Of Trona and Ridgecrest
Last year during 4th of July. Rumbling Giants will put the Fear of Chaos in you.
G Money , I’ve been there, I can only imagine how powerful an experience that was !
Just wait till they stand up !
I was grillin a fat steak over here in long beach on my boat and a few minutes after the earthquake we had a fat swell roll in and knock all the boats around for about a minute or so.. was pretty dope
@@mikecorleone6797 maaan you're lucky
I was in Ridgecrest during the Ridgecrest quakes. It was fun!
There is just something about being on a mountain watching mountains falling apart that would make me wish I had stayed home....I mean what are the freakin odds??
This is so interesting. I had no idea what Mt. Whitney, etc. looked like. Thank you for posting this.
Outstanding vlog!
Scenic with added suspense from the earthquake
Excellent camera work -- very steady. Amazing! Thanks for posting this.
WOW! Absolutely Stunning! Thank You for sharing, Be Safe in all your travels.
Talk about being at the right place at the right time!
rad to be there to capture something that happens so infrequently, and during the day.
Amazing coverage of that earthquake and best video with commentary of those peaks I've seen.
Gotta admit, my brother would have loved to have been up there. He loved hiking in them thar hills. Thanks for the ride-a-long. Now I wanna hike it.
I feel like there's a PhD project that could come out of this video... well done and obviously right time right place, to film this and safely!
Capturing in real-time; buckling of mountains all around you is so powerful that it’s on another level! You start to wonder or at least I do, were maintains created in relative small increments like this over millions of years (or) was it an unimaginable initial brutal force that crimped the land instantaneously as when cars do at a high rate of speed...
That had to be pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. Happy Trails
What awesome footage. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing!! It's amazingly beautiful 😍 and yet scary! God be with you my friend!
How great is His Love so much higher than the heavens with faithfulness that reaches the sky. Be exalted oh Lord and let your Glory reign . on top of the mountain during and earth quake you must live right. Glory Glory Hallelujah
Robin Holbrook Nice of you to subject everyone to your dogma.
@@artysanmobile Aww dont mention it
This is the same as the saying " if a tree fell in the forest and nobody was there to hear it , would it make any noise ? " scenario . This is eerily quiet in the beginning .
That last pitch to the top looked very very steep With a lot of loose rock! Great video in the moment ! Glad you made it home safe .
wow! right time and place? glad you were on the safe spot during EQ, unbelievably stunning views! getting goosebumps while watching😅! glad you made it home safely! Awesome share and upload my friend! All the BEST!
Awesome and impressive, other than those two, I'm at a loss for words. Well those and saying thanks for posting this video!
Amazing he caught this on camera. He's lucky not to have been on the exact site where rocks were falling. Interesting video. Thank you.
Thank you for holding the camera still. GREAT VIDEO!
Well you have my story beat, I was on Castle rock in Big Bear during the big quake in '92. I love to tell that story to this day. I had to sit down and spread my hands to keep from falling off.
Wow very cool thankyou for making my day ♥️
Great video, Sir. I'm glad you're OK - what are the odds that you would be right there when the EQ hit ??? This is National Geographic worthy !!! Thank you for sharing !!!
Great Video!! Glad you were there to capture it!
Wow! This is absolutely beautiful. The power and beauty of Mother Nature (I’ll probably catch heck for this comment, but I don’t care) is amazing. Thank you for sharing your adventure.
Great footage!
Wow ... that's pretty amazing footage ... glad you made it back ok.
