Looks a lot like Douglas Firs, aka white pine. The NW, Vancouver, WA. Lots of lakes that look like that here, but large snowy peaks all around in different directions, from certain points of view you can't tell you're in the mountains here.
I’m at the top of a hill, the pond in a small vale that was carved-out by a small glacier - I believe. It's really just a large puddle - being at the top of the hill, there is a very small watershed - and almost zero stream input. The lack of stream input has saved the pond from filling-in with sediments, though there is probably a layer of peaty organic mud some 10s of feet deep in places. I which I had a way to drill down there...
The mud would kick-up quickly, and you would not see much. Even as it is, one can only see two to three feet down. Dust and debris and rotten organic matter have been accumulating on the bottom of the pond for about 12,000 years...
@tom grzyb Loads of features in North America are a result of that time frame. A major catastrophe happened. Terminal moraines are just one of the marks left behind by the massive change in climate that happened approximately 12k years ago.
So massive, but has only been realized by a handful of geologist and others to date. With sufficient, actual rock, and other undisputable evidence that it has disrupted all of ancient history and archaeology from it's core. To the point of having to start again with a new story of mans past. Currently academia is resisting as if its life depended on it or something.
@tom grzyb What are the questions for? What caused the end of the last ice age is not well understood.
What ended the last ice age, and why it was so sudden has all been overlooked in the current paradigm, and that is going to prove a lot of academics wrong after the geologic past in rewritten. The story of the earths past is just starting to be revealed. And what is the most obvious is that the previous explanation is wrong.
This is all geologic, rock evidence, it's not going anywhere and it's been around for a long time. But a lot of the evidence is completely new, like the discovery of the Carolina Bays, the earths past is anything but well understood.
What caused the end of the last ice age is not well understood.
True. There have been many shifts in climate over geological time, and only sometimes can a actual precipitating event be identified. There are patterns, having to do with the orbit of the earth and something called "Precession", which is the changes of the rotation of Earth's rotational axis. However, it should be noted that there has been no global warming seen in the earth's history with anywhere near the rapidity which we are now experiencing.
@tom grzyb Of course there has, 12k years ago. That's what I'm getting at. Climate change is a distraction to get the people's attention to focus on something else other than the fact that the US Constitution has been usurped by the COVID robber-barons, that's all. To keep the masses divided and fighting among themselves. Don't let them distract you with nonsense.
You need to do a lot more research on this topic if you're going to make claims, that academia can not currently defend. I will suggest a YT channel for you, but please find this guys literature if you would rather read about it. He has a web site where you can get further reading materials.
He is an auto-didactic Geologist, and academic geologist, but of course way outside of actual academia. That's the point. You will not get the truth from them, they have jobs to protect.

He is one of the few living people I look up to, and the others include people like Sagan, Einstein...etc. So, that's high praise. And, he also the person I've gleaned knowledge of terminal moraines from.

Yes, and they are the ice sheets that caused all of the damage. I live overlooking the Willamette valley. A relic from that time, and the entire Columbia gorge were all caused as a result of a catastrophic cosmic accident around 12k years ago.
A series of them, think comet Hale-Bop hitting Jupiter, same thing. It wasn't just that one strike, another is thought to have hit northern Iran, think Epic of Gilgamesh/Noah, both the same retelling of the same event. Several more hit all around the earth, not all hit ice sheets, several did.
That's what is believed to be the end of the last ice age and the reason so much ice just disappeared. The sea level rose nearly 400ft 12k years ago. Suddenly, and that's why. Thats where the water came from. At least two miles thick. that's how thick the ice was supposedly at the end of the last Ice age. Where did it go, and so fast.
You're stating facts that aren't related to what is in those, days worth, of evidence that is revealed on his channel. Field work, not reading books. Do yourself a favor, and stop with academia, that is... show more

Do yourself a favor, and stop with academia, that is what I said earlier. Look, listen, learn, it will improve your mind. You'll realize how little of the story of the earths past is actually known by standard academia.
Academia is way off on the past, very off. Take for instance, have you ever head of the term 'Carolina Bays'? No, I'm sure, because it's new geologic information. It has been entered into the official scientific literature just recently by it's main researcher. A guy named Anthony Zamora. So now it's science fact, that part, i.e. the comet strike and mass melting that caused the Carolina Bays, the rest is a-priori derived, but it's all logical. And based on rock solid evidence.
Again it's all evidence in the earth that was overlooked for centuries, and was only reveled due to modern technology; LIDAR to be specific. It will not go away, it will just be recognized and theories validated, by some already. Not many, as you attest.

In particular, for this conversation, I would maybe recommend this one, but it is really hard to say. Other than he has actually mentioned Climate Change several times, and what a 'Red Herring' it actually is compared to earths history, it is just ridiculous in fact: Randall Carlson Podcast Ep024 Younger Dryas the Back-drop to Human History / Lost Worlds Pulverized

Ice did not vacate much of Europe or North America for another 4-5000 years or so. And temperatures were not much higher than they were previously.
