Metasequoia Forests of North Dakota
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ก.ค. 2024
- In Western North Dakota we check out the local plants of the rolling hills and Buttes as we start to less of the cast of Western species and more of the members of the Midwestern prairie flora. Everywhere there are massive stumps of 60 million year old #Metasequoia trees eroding out of a particular layer in the otherwise grey and beige hillsides of some of the buttes and canyon walls.

Never fails. "Okay, Tony. Tell me somethin' I don't know."
Cactus grow in North Dakota. And Yucca.
North Dakota was once a forest of redwoods.
Some members of the Rose family have nitrogen fixing bacteria symbiosis.
Cattle dogs will dive head first down a ravine in hopes of treats.
I hope he reads yah comment man
Plant daddy makes me feel less alone
He makes me feel some feelings. When he talks about illegal tree planting though I got the wrong idea :/
"Unfuckwithable". Vocabulary expansion is not why I come to this channel, but it is one of many reasons why I stay. You give us so much, Joey.
'Somewhat much more boring'
Goddammit Deb. Go fuck yourself, bye.
Rrrrolls off the tongue.
What the fuck?
That's not what I just wrote ↑
I'm leaving both comments 🤨
WTF?
@@overthenever4262 goddamn youtube and it's stupid ass comments being broken
This man will inspire millions of people to fall in love with the details of nature and enjoy the art of guerilla gardening
I dreamed of being a botanist for years! Now that I know it doesn't pay I'll just stick with watching this channel.
When batton rouge was founded, a giant pile of petrified tree trunks sat nearby on the mouth of the Mississippi. It was big enough to use as a landmark for navigation.
My Mother was born on the Mississippi river,Her father was a bar pilot and they lived at a place called Berwick or pilot town ,I have never heard about the petrified trees ,how interesting!
And those were covered with red lichen, hence the name Baton (Stick) Rouge (Red)
Little by little, this channel is becoming my Sanity Fix. If I can make it ‘til the next show, I’ll be Fine. Many Thanks for what you bring to my world, Joey.
Waiting for the Hawaii video. Gotta see the native forest before it's all gone!
@@dadigitechman it’s invasion central. Didn’t stand a chance against all those exotics.
Those petrified redwoods are amazing.
I love the blue of that flax flower...
Absolutely gorgeous
I've been watching this channel for over a year or so now and never would I have ever imagined that Tony would visit my ultra-bland homestate of North Dakota. It's a miracle!
Maybe not as bland as we thought. I didn't stop to look closely enough when I was at TRNP where I think some of this might have been filmed - but even though I was still a prick who didn't think to look at the bracts, the landscape that far west was pretty incredible.
I visited North Dakota quite a few years ago and I really liked the landscape. For a Dutchman, even the prairie potholes are hilly and the absence of people is refreshing! I was birdwatching, so I have no real recollection of the plants (before the days of digital photography - it would be different now).
Bismarck, In da house! You betcha.✌
North Dakota is beautiful, especially during the winter with a full moon overhead and hills of snow around you. Just be prepared for the thundersnow storms. Also, cows live better than the average human. Possessing more rights and collective autonomy over the course of their lives than your average human worker drone.
Full Moon tomorrow! July 23.
You gotta love a PETM shout-out. All good things must come to an end, and maybe PETM was the end of the metasequoia forests. Read the PETM wiki for a good perspective on the temperature of earth over the last 65m years. ND was great fun as a kid living on Minot AFB. To my everlasting regret Mom threw away our collection of several thousand desert rose crystals found just north of the original elementary school. The metal turbine vents would blow off the roof and down the street like tumble weeds. Ah, good times.
I appreciate the botanical edutainment. You've made my grown man hobby of plant collecting far more interesting. Thanks fam...
Thank you Joey for taking us to this very interesting place. I enjoyed looking at the patterns made by the petrified tree rings stacked like cards frozen open in a shuffle. Or maybe like a roasted onion?
I'm blown away by all the cactus!
Joey, shout endemic plant binomials at me; it's the only way I can feel alive.
Dude man. If I knew you were close, I'd give you lodging
The hypothetical "do you remember dat?" Always gets me 😌
I feel kind of bad for being more fascinated with paleobotany than regular botany, but thank goodness there's a healthy amount of both in this video
Lepidodendron and Tempskya get me hard
I love the Dakota's there beautiful ! My dad once brought his friend a science teacher home a buffalo flop he shalacked it and keept it on his coffee table! ☺️😂😂😂
I've been all over the dakotas the badlands are awesome and the black hills custer state park go to silvin lake and walk down the path between the rocks and down to the old groth forest its awesome ! Like a mideavel forest ! Beautifullllll
Yes I'd like to do time travel and see the landscape including the buffalo in their time.. Thanks for posting and best wishes.
Touching bison patties? That's a like.
Wow that Metasequoia trunk… so fucking awesome.
Welcome to ND
Thank you!
I luv you too, greetings from the Netherlands.
What a beautiful landscape! I'm going on a work assignment to the Black Hills in a few weeks, and I'll be there for a while, so maybe a trip up to ND could be in order. Thanks for the inspiration!
Northern part of Roosevelt national park is better, that's at least what everyone around here tells me. Depending on your route, the Lawrence Well homestead is pretty neat if you want an example of a forgotten adobe building technique. Walls on it are a good 1.5 feet thick, even if it looks like a normal 30s kinda house
Some cowboy once told me folks all think horses are smarter than cows, but you don't see cows letting people ride them.
Beg to differ, just that a cow is not near as fun to ride.
I appreciate terminology repeated.
Badlands: Red Shirt Table, Oglala Lakota County, South Dakota
I did a double take about you being in McKenzie county, ND. My home state albeit I’m typically in eastern ND.
Ha ha I love your dogs. They're so cute
When I 1st started listening I was baffled & skeptical of this guy, but someone recommended it so now I LOOOVE this guy! Being a plant & nature addict with a passion for geology, I can't stop!! Gonna give him a like AND subscribe!
Lignites....nice!!
Thanks Bro! I grew up in Bismarck ND and this definitely brings back great memories.😊✌
That artemisia cana is neat, never seen it before. I got a pressure washer you can borrow, runs on 110V
Beautiful scenery. And such biodiversity that most people would overlook or be completely oblivious to. Amazing, those well preserved fossil tree rings.
Yes I try to imagine what the forest looked like where I live outside Ottawa Ontario Canada. Best wishes to you and blessings to you and all you hold dear.
I live close to there. Right now I'm looking for mushrooms
@@stingingmetal9648 I find many mushrooms on the trans Canada trail, and my back yard, I've even grown oyster mushrooms indoors in the winter, but for the most I don't pick them because I don't know the good mushrooms from the poisonous ones. Best wishes to you fellow wild mushroom gatherer.
North Dakota is so much better than South Dakota. Except for the dinosaurs
@@justinturner4681
Damn right brother! And neither do birds!
Good one
If you’re heading east you should check out the sheyenne natn’l grassland a half hour south of Fargo. one of the few tall grass prairie preserves left and a real nice bur oak savanna.
Great job Joey....
Jack is living his best life
I may or may not have screenshot the scene with Jack in the tall grass and sage right near the end. It also may or may not be my current desktop wallpaper. Awesome stuff!
I was just in North Dakota! This answered many plant questions I had while hiking. Thank you so much for what you do, I think it's awesome and very inspiring.
liked the wild licorice and the juniper trees
Whatever the planet looked like it was probably fucking amazing. That is something we can not destroy, no matter what happens it will be fascinating.
wow! One of the best. thank-you!
man I love your vids.. "LAGS"
You coming to SD? 😁
I had no idea you could find cactuses in North Dakota. Thanks for the great content!
And I love this channel ❤
Fantastic video- thank you!
Beautiful country, thank you.
love to see you visit the beautiful south american plateau someday.
another good one mate,aussie aussie aussie
Hey, great episode. Always interested in anything I can learn about upper Midwest native species, we're always looking for new stuff to put in the garden (or cultivate if it shows up on its own). If you find yourself in Minneapolis say hi, happy to guide you to the better burrito joints or whatthefuck.
You make good videos Tony.
I love the videos you make there very informative.
Also I'm in vages and growing native cactus bolth small and big and of course none native cactus to but its all for food/water.
I got same native and a couple none native desert fruit trees.
Oh im planting native trees the tall ones around lake mead to add shade wild life and hopefully slow water evaporation.
What a beautiful area !
jeeez just a county away from me.... now i gotta go find these plants.
Never thought it could happen, but this made me miss living in North Dakota
Cows in animal agriculture also get fed a lot of things they are actually allergic to, like soy. Makes them have the runny shits 24/7
My question is why don't they just feed them the wast food the farms don't sell because its not perfect.
Like a carit with 2 ends or sunburned peppers or tomatoes.
Nope must grow crops just for them like God just feed them the inperfect fruits tada ya cuts 20% or more farms out of the dam system.
@@thesilentone4024 What you don't know about cows is *a lot.*
@@rridderbusch518 I don't farm them but I do know some fruits they can't eat.
Apples yes potatoes no.
Watermelon yes pumpkins yes corn well we do that now so yes.
Peppers yes just not the hot ones tomatoes no not really some sea weed yes mangoes yes the seed to yes.
Nuts no broccoli yes mesquite poods yes just small amounts its just fiber.
Cow tongue cactus yes fruits too and lots more I just summarize it before so people know the wast we make.
@@thesilentone4024 maybe it just depends on how hungry they are. A lady in Dolan Springs, Arizona bought 60 lbs of potatoes and I asked her if she was taking care of a lot of people and she said no, she put them out for the cattle on the open range near her place. She said they love them and they are so hungry during this drought.
@@helenpatterson3858 oh I was told you can't feed them that guess I was rong on that one.
But still just doing that for the unwanted should reduce the farms needed for cow alot and well as we eat lots will not go to us do to something like a blemishes
Was very irritable needed this
I'd like to think you listen to jack when he is trying to show you the easiest route down or back to the truck. I'm out in the brush as much as you and I really work with my dogs on this and you can get to where you actually trust their judgement over your own.
Honestly watching your stuff has helped me identify plants better suited for Utahs changing hot as f*ck climate.
cows aren't stupid, they're just children. they can get to be almost 30 but they get fully grown and wont get any more muscle when they are like 3. basically a teenager in their years!
It's basically what we have done to all domesticated animals... infantalised them... our dogs and cats don't even take care of their own shit.
I love snow berries! Just planted some in my yard. Come to the Beartooths
One of the few states I haven't been to. Looks awesome.
Love your vids bro
wow - I had ZERO idea there were Metasequoia at any time, anywhere in North America!
another classic
loved imagining the old forest
My grandpa and grandma owned a giant property in North Dakota. They planted a ton of trees (thousands) around an immense lake they owned with that property. Today those trees should still be there and huge.
My grandma sold it a few years back. But those tree’s were big when I was young so they should be huge now.
My home state!!
At long last, quality religion
nice this was close to home you almost made it up to Manitoba
The Dalea was sure neat.
Sup, I’m from North Dakota, the central/Missouri region and would love to take you on a tour of some of my favorite spots. From hiking trails to weeds, I’ve got you.
been planting native orchids on my property in Wisconsin (cyps)
Man, I really wanna see your take on the botany of the Flint Hills of northeast Kansas.
💚
Look at that Lichen, someone has to do some pcr on that shit ! Liking this channel a lot 👍🏻
In my experience, most cattle are much smarter than most people.
I never metasequoia I didn't like. My favorite (and largest) local example got cut down so rich people could expand their cottage into a small mansion. Makes me sick. Thanks for the video.
Super dry in the Northern Plains this year - poor plants are short !
dude, I love you, almost as much as I love Fungi and Bacteria.
Roughly around the time of the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, you had not one, but TWO big-ass basalt effusions going on -- one that generated the N. Atlantic Igneous Province, and one that generated the oceanic large igneous Province known as Siletzia (which now underlies most of western Oregon and Washington, with another big fragment up in Alaska).
Siletzia seems to have been produced by the initial plume head of what became the Yellowstone Hotspot -- shat out a good 2 million cubic km of basalt. But the N Atlantic Igneous Province eruptions shat out over 6 million cubic km.
So between the both of them, having both occured around 55+ million years ago, you gotta think that had something to do with the PETM.
Yes
I spotted some channel fill and clay lenses on that outcrop. I don't know from what layer the redwoods come from, but is there a chance that it was a running-water/low-energy stream/low-relief environment? I don't know if redwoods in the paleocene could be found in fluvial settings.
aho brother mister prof you startled me because i vent not news to you, its wonderfull land , its my favourite land in the turtle island , thanks you for your botanical lesson , i speak with you later , its obvious and becarefull covid its always deadly and take care of you 😉❤👣✊✌🌟💫🍀🌸🌹🌻🌺🍁🍃🍂🌿🌾🍄🌵🌲🌳🌱🌼🐾🐾🐾🐾🐢🍻🗻🌄🌅🌇🌆
Wait, what I've never seen a seed pod on a dalea purpurea or dalea candida ! The seeds are way easier to collect than harvesting a bean pod
it's not dusty enough for a Clint Eastwood movie, but still very nice. I was wondering what you use for jack to treat him for fleas.
How long would the redwoods have lived back in the Eocene period? How massive would some of the older trees have gotten? Guess l could google but thought I’d throw it out to the community first.
I know a great 2-night hike in the SD badlands but I want to time it for when the wildflowers are going off. Any idea when that is?
I wanna go there dude
Thank you. Veri interesting!
Guaranteed good archaeology from there to Alzada - Ekalaka.
Fuck yea! My home state!
I got your deep dish right here!😘
But, Does criminal botany pay?
