    One small nitpicky sidenote: that lahar on Mt Hood, on the White River Floodplain/Debris Plain, has also had recent occurrences and is the main reason why no trees grow in that immediate spot. Various fall/winter rainstorm caused events have caused massive and very recent debris flows down that valley (and they also happen in other valleys around Mt Hood as well as Mt Rainier, such as the recent ones in the last two decades that took out the Westside Road, Carbon River Road, Nisqually Road, and Sunshine Point Campground.)
    If you look to the sides, trees have grown up in older lahar deposits, although stunted and much more sparse. The recent lahars just in the last decade or two have done considerable damage to the Mt Hood Highway (26) as well as completely rerouted the river over into a much more forested part and away from that massive and more barren debris field. ODOT had to rebuild the bridge after the debris flow nearly took out the old bridge, only for the next debris flow to reroute the river away from the main bridge water channel and into the smaller side-overflow bridge channel. So that area on the White River is incredibly dynamic and lots of those lahar deposits are recent, even if they are built upon older deposits. Wyeastblog (a site) has some interesting articles on that specific White River debris flow and eveything else Mt Hood related. Oh also of note, even Mt St Helens has had recent lahar debris flows! Around Blue Lake Trailhead, south of the mountain. I backpacked there a few years ago.
    Great video! I know a lot about the Cascade range just from my own interest in the subject as well as being an avid PNW hiker, but I always enjoy watching videos like these and I learned some stuff I didn't know too.

    Great tour of the Cascades. But... At Crater lake you have Annie creek that comes out of the south wall and flows too Klamath lake. Also water seeps out to creat the north Umpqua, and the Rogue river. If it didn't the lake would fill too the rim and spill over the edges.

    I watched several documentaries and a movie today about the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. I was in 9th grade when it happened. I have to live under the constant severe weather threat here in Louisiana but I can grow food all year. I wouldn`t know how to live anywhere else because I depend on my fruits, berries, vegetables, fishing and my knowledge learned living here for 60 years. I just moved to a very rural area and plan to get chickens as pets for eggs. They`re funny birds.

    I recently learned that the rolling steep hills here in central Louisiana were formed when the big asteroid hit that wiped out the dinosaurs. That`s the theory. I`ve always wondered how they were formed. There are lots of sea fossils here too, whale bones, coral and black shark teeth. I used to hunt for fossils nearly every day in local gravels and gravel bars on the creeks. There are agates and petrified wood here too...some valuable types.

Hurricanes are much more frequent than volcano eruptions! And then you've got all the poisonous creatures and the severe humidity. I'll take the Pacific Northwest anytime. But that's just me.

    FYI : Nice job on the video, Solomon, but you did mispronounce Garibaldi, which has a HARD G, not a soft one!
    One other change I’d make, is the use of banjo music, which has no cultural connection to the PNW, but would be appropriate in Appalachia. . . Instead, I’d look at using some good old 1990’s Grunge/Rock, or even Jazz, for a NW flavor.
    Finally, something that stood out to me as a bit odd, is the way that you say “Peace!” Almost like you’re another person altogether, from the one who narrates this very informative video. Personally, I’d re-think that, if I were you. . .
    Please accept my feedback as just that, and not as criticism of your excellent work here!

      This is false. I personally know 2 geologist who are practicing Catholics. So, disproved. Personal belief as a job requirement is only practiced in certain situations, like a church or the Supreme Court. It is also true, however, that those who know and use the scientific method find many reasons to discard the three Abrahamic religions as myth. Me included.
