My take on the *crooked trees:* 1) The trees seems to be uniform in age, 40-50 yrs old, ie the area was clear cut (logged), or a forest fire run through it, or some other natural or man made cause that removed all big living trees in the stand. 2) The young saplings that sprouted, about 1 m high, were covered with snow (or windblown sand that makes the rest of the reasoning different). 3) Several warm/cold weather with consecutive thaws/freezes occurred that melted/froze the top snow layer forming an ice crust at about 60-80 cm. 4) A severe storm came through with ice crystal killing the protruding top shoots, or temperature fluctuations that thawed the shoots making them initiate growth followed die off, ie frost damage. 5) This literarily cut off the top shoots of the saplings while leaving lower branches protected and alive under the crust. 6) Over the yrs the surviving branches bent upwards and became the top shoots. 7) As natural when the canopy closed only one shoot prevailed, the rest of the branches/shoots died off and/or people cut them off 8) The crooked trees where formed. This is a growth form I see regularly (and naturally) with trees, both spruce and birch, up at the tree line in the mountains.

I agree they are two young and identical to not be man manipulated all planted in rows like a orchard they are way to young for us to not have a record of some crazy event to do that to them and only those trees no other ones. Manipulated and dude who did it is trolling or has passed and never told anyone why he did it

I mean it would also make sense that there is a reason they need the would to bent like that naturally so it’s strong and you can make it how u want. They probably was gonna be used for building something

Cool wouldn’t mind visiting these

This place rocks...nicely done 👏🏿😅

When I was 6 years old, my parents decided I was old enough to climb an active volcano, and drove my sister, my two cousins and I to Lassen Volanic Park to experience the thrill of a near death. In 1968, there were no warning signs, information or safe areas, you just climbed a steep vertical switchback trail for 3 to 5 hours to gain over 10,000 feet and look into the mud bubbling interior. Great for a 6 year old! My mom, who was hoping to be left behind ("Thank god I'm alone for five minutes!") to lay in the cabin reading (she hated excercise of any kind), but I think her fear of losing all the kids, or her accurate, certain knowledge that my father was completely inept at watching anything and would possibly forget all about us while he raced around with his camera getting great pictures to sell to our hometown paper. He had almost lost us on other, equally risky jaunts so mom grabbed her cigarettes, a sweater and a thermos of coffee and resigned herself.... something did happen, and to me, but I survived, and I'm ok today, all these years later, but still have nightmares about my brush with the volcano's gods and goddesses...I learned permanent respect for nature as well.

Wow. Great writing! Great story. Just a normal sixties family adventure, then, eh? Please come back and write more. I'm dying to know...did mud bubble up and splash you, or a stone come loose under your foot or what?

@@happydays2300 Thanks! I'm writing a book and have been unearthing our family secrets and having a blast with memories! I've written about this before, but that day, as I ran up to be next to dad as he stood at the edge of the smoking cauldron while my mom was sitting smoking a ways away, I slipped, sliding feet first towards the lava boiling below. My dad literally grabbed the back of my jacket collar as I went by him and jerked me back. His face was white gray and he stared at me with guilt and fear. He said, "don't tell your mom", and made me hook my fingers in his belt loops behind so he could tell where I was. I never, ever did tell my mom. She was half native American Indian and completely terrifying when she really lost her temper. My dad was completely afraid of her, and the idea that we BOTH would have been killed, me in a volcano, he scalped of all body parts by a infuriated warrior...they were both very complicated and talented people who had overcome extreme poverty and desertions to achieve their dreams. They were not natural parents, but I realized as an adult that they tried to do the best they could, and loved us and enjoyed the hell out of their lives in 1960s San Francisco Bay area.

0:00 I have seen those weird trees in forest near of my home. But yeah our world Have much weird places like The Crooked Forest what I Have seen here in Finland too. Weird places like Hell's Gate, lightning River, Red Blood rock, volcano islands and rockforests are so interesting.😮

I would love to experience the lightning storm just once...🌩

We lived only 20 minutes from Sarah Winchester's, and visited it several times, and they had private Halloween tours. It's a very beautiful place, and has to be haunted, but not scary. We loved it. I liked it so much that when we had the opportunity to move from our apt. to my husbands grandparents 100 year old giant behemoth, I jumped at the chance to have my own "Winchester" house! We did move in, and it was haunted in a big way, but with family relatives...

Love this channel

If I had my way, I would jail them all for sadistic cruelty to animals. Let them put all the curses they want on me then. Up against the wall...

The trees where bent when saplings. most likely by a mud slide that let some branches stick out for photosynthesis. Then gradually grew towards the sun as all plants do and the landslide eroded with time.

Good afternoon everyone

Should be up to date. To my knowledge, the Darvaza Crater ca no longer be visited As for China, it's still closed.

Wrong they aren’t very old trees either we would prolly have records of muiltiple rocks slides it’s more than likely man manipulated because they are planted in perfect rows like you would a orchard of some sort besides that possible strong winds or a huge snow fall but still would make sense that everyone is identical and they are the only ones in the forst

Alaska Fairbanks has best researchers

Hunga Tonga is no longer an island

I know why those trees are bent. Just ask.
