I just visited Ackerson Meadow recently. It looks fantastic, so much better than it did when the meadow was added to the park.

This video really made clear what is lost when a meadow is eroded. It makes me think about how people can experience the meadow when it's fully restored. What can and/or what will that experience look like, so that experience is preserved into the future?

Thank you for asking such a thoughtful question. The focus currently is on the restoration efforts, which include many volunteer opportunities through Yosemite Conservancy and Yosemite National Park to help restore the meadow in addition to the work being done by restoration crews. After the restoration process is complete, there will be discussions of land management moving forward.

@@YOSEMITECONSERVANCY Thank you for your reply. I truly understand and respect your answer. Having backpacked in Yosemite for half a century, I've seen the impact an abundance of visitation can have on meadows, as of course you have. Your video made me want to visit the meadow after it's restored. I know the NPS re-routes existing trails through meadows so that they go around the periphery of the meadow instead. Perhaps your experience with the results of re-routing trails (or not having a trail at all) would offer a meaningful indication in Ackerman's case.

Great video of the Ackerson meadow restoration! A lot of volunteers from the Yosemite Conservancy have contributed to this effort, it would have been great to see more of their efforts in a video. This could also encourage more volunteers for Yosemite.

Very nicely photographed. I'm curious about the pollinators. Where do they overwinter? You'd think it would be rather far from the sky islands. That's quite a journey in altitude alone.

I've spent most of my adult life camping & backpacking in Yosemite, including the high country and I have never heard of the Sky Islands. From the looks, I've definitely been there, but since my only free time is August, I believe I have missed the show of wild flowers shown here. Thank you for this video.

"Probably a few hundred feet across, and very long." Wow. And "really deep", too! You'd think she'd have some actual information, being that she's a ranger doing a video on the lake and all. I had to FF to 3:00 before they got around to talking about the trees. Then the guy tells us they're not "stumps" but the tops of trees, and the woman says there is a "smattering of various stumps". So at 4 minutes out of 7 we find out they are old trees "peaking out over the lake surface". No kidding. "The wood that's under the lake"? You mean under water? In the water? Under the surface of the lake? Who writes this stuff? STOP saying "really unique"!! I've been there. I've done that. It is spooky. I saw a presentation at Parson's Lodge about this in the late '90s, given by biologists who had studied the trees, and why they were there. Wasn't there something about a terminal moraine damming Tenaya Creek? And there's a parallel feature at the South shore of Lake Tahoe. All in all a disappointing video.

What outstanding images! It was truly amazing seeing so many different types of species inhabiting a particular area. I had no idea Yosemite had porcupines or wolves. They were all so magnificent. I only wish you would have given a bit more time to view them. (If possible) Especially toward the end, as the last few images were only visible for a few seconds. Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed seeing this. Thanks~👍😎🏞️🌲✨
