What Lies Beneath
มุมมอง 49ปีที่แล้ว
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.

The Billion-Year-Old Beartooth Mountains
มุมมอง 70ปีที่แล้ว
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
มุมมอง 4422 ปีที่แล้ว
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...

We hiked Illinois' highpoint, Charles Mound (1,235 ft), on June 1, 2019. It's on private property and, due to the owners' wishes, only open the first weekend in June, July, August and September. While in the state, we took the time to visit Fermilab, the US's premier particle physics and accelerator laboratory in Batavia, Illinois.
Volcanoes in Arizona?
มุมมอง 2412 ปีที่แล้ว
This Science Wednesday explores the volcanic features of northern Arizona. Also featured is Humphreys Peak, Arizona's highpoint at 12,633 feet. While Ricardo climbed it back in 1999, this was Ulyana's 20th state highpoint, climbed on May 15, 2019 with friends and colleagues from the International Institute for Astronautical Sciences.

    Mawenzi only recently open for climbing. Is very unstable rock....back in the 50s, a close friend Mr. Lewis was late for his flight to Nairobi and was not allowed to board. The plane flew into Mawenzi, killing all, and nobody able to reach the site for years. This mountain is amazing with its own floura/fauna; like an island. "Morning side" in Kenya, 7,000ft up.

      it means "slowly, slowly."

    • @Sifo_Dyas
      @Sifo_Dyas 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@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 TH-cam 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 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.
