Crater Lake, the ghost of the mighty Mount Mazama, is more than just breathtakingly blue waters—it's a place steeped in legend, tragedy, and the unexplained. In this episode, we dive into the Klamath Tribes' epic tale of a volcanic battle between the spirits of the Above and Below Worlds, culminating in Mount Mazama’s cataclysmic collapse 8,000 years ago.
We'll explore the science behind its impossibly clear and vivid blue hue, its standing as the deepest lake in the United States, and its eerie reputation as a sacred and hypnotic site. From the mysterious Old Man of the Lake—a 450-year-old floating log with an uncanny knack for influencing weather—to phantom islands, ghostly lodge residents, and even Bigfoot sightings, Crater Lake proves to be a hotbed of intrigue.
Plus, we’ll share spine-chilling stories of disappearances, tragic suicides, plane crashes, and UFO sightings over its mirror-like surface. Is it a portal to the underworld? A home to cryptids and aliens? Or simply nature at its most awe-inspiring and enigmatic? Join us as we unravel the haunting tales, paranormal encounters, and unsolved mysteries that make Crater Lake one of the most captivating and spooky spots in the Pacific Northwest.

So he is thinking, you guys.
2
00:00:04,180 --> 00:00:05,660
Rough times.
3
00:00:05,660 --> 00:00:09,080
Leaving people concerned about what's going to happen
4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,400
when the last of the old man finally
5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,760
sinks below the deep blue surface of greater lake.
6
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,360
Yeah, we should probably be checking on that.
7
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,360
Listen, OK, keep your eye on that old man wood.
8
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,720
Yes, everyone, keep your eye on all of the old man wood.
9
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,560
Make sure it doesn't catch you off guard.
10
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:42,040
Hi, Caitlyn.
11
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:43,360
Hi, Cassie.
12
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,000
Hi, creepy people.
13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,200
Hello.
14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,680
Well, that was weird.
15
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,040
I know.
16
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:50,680
Did you see where I went this way?
17
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,240
Like, maybe someone is lurking in the corner watching us.
18
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,720
We literally put her in the corner too.
19
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,000
Nobody puts baby in a corner.
20
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,280
Is that what we're calling, Taylyn?
21
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,320
Now her nickname is Baby.
22
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:11,440
Well, she does have like the fresh, faced skin of a fetus.
23
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:12,320
She does.
24
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:13,560
She does.
25
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,920
She's trying so hard not to make any noise.
26
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:16,960
You can make noise.
27
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:18,920
It's OK.
28
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,760
So we have our editor in the room today.
29
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,960
She's coming to visit and watch us perform and be theatrical.
30
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:30,200
And even though Co-star told some people not to--
31
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,040
Fuck that.
32
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,960
I will never not be theatrical.
33
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:35,560
Yeah.
34
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:41,760
I do feel better about going against just strictly contradicting
35
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,800
Co-star's advice.
36
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,360
Now that I know it's AI, just righted.
37
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,360
I feel like now that I know that a lot of things make more sense,
38
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,480
I feel kind of silly for not realizing that sooner.
39
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,440
But like we said earlier, it's very synchronistic.
40
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,440
Yeah.
41
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:03,920
The day actually I dyed my hair, it said, change your hair.
42
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,160
Isn't that weird?
43
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,800
I feel like it is.
44
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,160
And I was like, God, you got this.
45
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:09,840
God.
46
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,280
Co-star.
47
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,360
Well, anyway, we will do another episode later with Taylyn
48
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,320
and so you guys can get to know her.
49
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,800
Now that I've said it on the record, she has to do it
50
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,600
and she can't get out of it.
51
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,320
Right.
52
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,120
But in case you didn't know, if you're new here,
53
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,120
this is PNW Haunts and Homicides, where
54
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,840
we chat about True Crime, the Paranormal,
55
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,240
and all things spooky in the Pacific Northwest.
56
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:36,240
Because we live here.
57
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:37,240
That's correct.
58
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,960
Also, sometimes we call it the PNW, because we're nasty.
59
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,560
We're so nasty.
60
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,080
We also do a tarot reading at the end of every episode,
61
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,920
just for a little deeper insight into our topic that we do.
62
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:52,320
OK, well, let's get started.
63
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,640
So I want to talk a little bit about this cool thing
64
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:57,480
that we have on Facebook.
65
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,760
But I didn't know that we had until very recently.
66
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,240
We have an episode topic suggestion chat on Facebook.
67
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,280
OK, yeah.
68
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,280
So I didn't know about it.
69
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,080
And then I was looking around on there
70
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,440
because I don't go on Facebook a lot.
71
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,960
So I was like, I probably should look and just make sure
72
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,280
no one's hacked me or something.
73
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,160
Just in case.
74
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,000
Just in case.
75
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,160
It's happened before.
76
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:20,680
Yeah.
77
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,520
Yeah.
78
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,800
So I go on there and I see that there's this little chat.
79
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:24,960
So I joined it.
80
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:30,280
And then one of our moderators, Natalia, she
81
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,840
messaged a picture of the Ghosts of Oregon book, which
82
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,240
we happened to have behind me on the shelf.
83
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,720
So I was like, oh, OK, maybe I'll go peek around in that
84
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,320
and try to find my next episode topics I did.
85
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,680
And just for like, shits and gigs,
86
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,640
I was like, hey, what's your favorite story from the book?
87
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,600
Oh, just to see maybe get future ideas.
88
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:57,520
And wouldn't you know it?
89
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,200
She mentioned the very topic I had already
90
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,280
planned on doing.
91
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,600
Oh, she gave a couple others too.
92
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:05,680
That's awesome.
93
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:06,120
Yeah.
94
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:06,840
Yeah.
95
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,080
That chat is totally brand new and not something
96
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,360
that I've told you about before at all.
97
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,160
You sure didn't?
98
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,480
If you did, I didn't remember.
99
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,000
So it could have gone either way.
100
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,840
You could have totally said, I told you about that.
101
00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:20,560
You dumb bitch.
102
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,840
And I would have believed you.
103
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:24,800
Yeah, I feel like that's what I'm saying.
104
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,560
Oh, you did?
105
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,280
Oh, so you did tell me about it.
106
00:04:27,280 --> 00:04:28,080
Yes.
107
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,080
I don't remember.
108
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:30,080
Yeah.
109
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,840
God, I don't bitch.
110
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:33,480
I can't even pick up on sarcasm.
111
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:39,880
Sometimes it just sailed straight overhead
112
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,960
to like crash lands, like a San Juan plane.
113
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,360
Caitlyn, what?
114
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,480
It's really creepy like you just said that.
115
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,240
Well, I was just thinking about Colton Harris Moore
116
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,280
because that's like recent.
117
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:55,720
But it's still creepy.
118
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,400
Why?
119
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,440
You only will find out at the end of this episode.
120
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,080
OK, great.
121
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:06,160
OK, how far up into my chair should my feet be at this point?
122
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,560
You're fine for a little while.
123
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,080
OK, great.
124
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,360
I'm pretty comfortable right now.
125
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,560
I'd really rather not move.
126
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,840
Yeah, it doesn't get really, really spooky until the end.
127
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:18,320
But I guess our definitions of really
128
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:19,040
spooky are different.
129
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:19,720
So we'll see.
130
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,480
Yeah.
131
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,920
So trust no one.
132
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,560
OK, so let's get into this topic that was so meant to be.
133
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:30,920
Alrighty.
134
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,120
The legend of how the magnificent Mount Mazama
135
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,880
fell was passed down through generations of the Klamath
136
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,520
tribes.
137
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,840
Their story tells of a mighty battle
138
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:44,280
between the spirit of the mountain,
139
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:47,000
aka the chief of the below world.
140
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:47,760
Oh.
141
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,800
And the spirit of the sky, aka chief of the above world.
142
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,240
Oh, of course.
143
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,680
And like any good story, it involves a beautiful woman,
144
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:03,200
woman, unrequited love, a shouty angry boy with too much power.
145
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:04,120
Red pill.
146
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,120
Yes, exactly.
147
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,080
And the ultimate sacrifice to put an end to the destruction.
148
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,320
Oh no.
149
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,240
So basically they came up with a story
150
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,360
about how these gods were fighting to kind of explain
151
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,920
this eruption collapse of this mountain.
152
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,040
OK.
153
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,640
I really don't like that.
154
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:27,440
I don't like Greek mythology where the gods are sort of--
155
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,640
like they're far more human.
156
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,240
And they're like kind of amongst us.
157
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,800
And they have feelings and emotions.
158
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:34,320
Yeah.
159
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,040
Like they do shit.
160
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,920
That's like sometimes really fucked up.
161
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,000
And you're like, that doesn't seem super gaudy.
162
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,800
They're a bunch of shouty angry boys.
163
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:44,760
They don't get their way.
164
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:45,880
And they fuck shit up.
165
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,840
I don't like that at all.
166
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:57,520
I really-- I prefer my new testament, super chill, Jesus vibe.
167
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,200
I want-- that's the Judeo Christian.
168
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:02,440
I'm comfortable with that.
169
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,680
I mean, they still fuck shit up.
170
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,920
I mean, that's true.
171
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,880
There's a lot of-- yeah, shouting angry boys involved in that, too.
172
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,160
I mean, that's fair.
173
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,640
I just don't like it when they're like,
174
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,640
I'm just going to be a dick today.
175
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,760
And I'm here right next to you.
176
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:17,480
So--
177
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,360
But they have to come up with something
178
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,400
to explain all these natural disasters that
179
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,800
are completely devastating to their people, too.
180
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,720
Can you imagine like this giant eruption just
181
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,680
faking up your whole life?
182
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,520
And then like, how do you explain that, you know?
183
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,240
I feel like the problem is exactly that I can imagine it.
184
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:38,360
And I would like not to.
185
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,640
Yeah.
186
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,640
I can't believe I'm talking about another volcano.
187
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:42,800
I know.
188
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,080
I don't know why this-- that's a--
189
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,320
Kind of one of your bugaboos.
190
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,880
I don't like it.
191
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,200
But this one's cool.
192
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,120
So roughly 8,000 years ago, Mount Mazama erupted
193
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,360
and collapsed, leaving behind a caldera,
194
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,960
that eventually filled with rain and melted snow.
195
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:03,680
The ghost of this once magnificent mountain is now called
196
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,160
Crater Lake.
197
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,600
Oh.
198
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,120
Have you been there?
199
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,440
I don't think so.
200
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,040
No?
201
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:15,000
It's one of the only truly classic Oregon experiences
202
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,960
that I don't think I've ever had.
203
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,200
It's just really far.
204
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,280
It really-- I don't know how far it is
205
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,480
because I was a kid when I went.
206
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:22,000
But it is--
207
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,720
Oh, my.
208
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,760
So classic that it's on our freaking license plates, right?
209
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,920
Like, if you get a Crater Lake license plate--
210
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,080
Sure can.
211
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:29,880
I'm not going to.
212
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,560
But you can.
213
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:31,200
I want one.
214
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:32,200
I've always wanted one.
215
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,360
But then I was like, wait, no, because I like the tree.
216
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,520
I like the trees.
217
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,280
Here's no how I feel about trees.
218
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:37,600
Yeah.
219
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,840
She's going to--
220
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,000
Tree hugger.
221
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,600
Yeah, don't call me a treefucker again.
222
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,880
I mean--
223
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,960
I'm not going to say that I wasn't thinking it, but--
224
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,920
My camera's being weird.
225
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:52,800
What's it doing?
226
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,280
It's slow.
227
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,760
Should we stop and restart?
228
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:58,760
I don't know.
229
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,440
OK, stop your thing.
230
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:02,680
OK, well, lesson learned.
231
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:04,680
Don't piss off the gods, Caitlyn.
232
00:09:04,680 --> 00:09:07,520
Oh, yeah, totally my fault.
233
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,240
You might see some technical difficulties in Cassie's
234
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,120
video.
235
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,080
We had this thing.
236
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,520
Switch laptops.
237
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,440
It's been a whole thing.
238
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,120
Apparently, I can't touch my laptop because it's haunted
239
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,080
as fuck.
240
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:21,920
Yeah.
241
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:22,920
But you're totally right.
242
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,520
It was me.
243
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:25,680
You pissed off the gods.
244
00:09:25,680 --> 00:09:28,720
You said you didn't like them, and this is why this is happening.
245
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,360
And it picks on you in exchange.
246
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,600
That's interesting.
247
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:33,600
Yeah.
248
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:34,280
Yeah.
249
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:35,280
OK.
250
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,840
It knew the soft spot, and it just--
251
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,400
It goes pretty underbelly.
252
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:39,880
Yes.
253
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:40,400
Yeah.
254
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,520
I am the underbelly of this equation.
255
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,280
So anyway, we're using Chris' laptop,
256
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,920
and it's not at all connected to mine.
257
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,760
But if I touch my laptop, that's behind it.
258
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,280
The video fucks up.
259
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,880
Explain this to me.
260
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,240
Technology people.
261
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,080
OK, so we're going to--
262
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,080
We're going to--
263
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,880
Everyone pray for us.
264
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,840
That's embrace.
265
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,080
That's embrace.
266
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,440
Pray to the nice gods for us.
267
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,080
OK, so where was I?
268
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,600
So this is located in the Cascades in Southwest Oregon.
269
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,520
For those of you who have never seen the lake
270
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,400
and haven't seen pictures on our social media before listening
271
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,560
to this, it is ba-lue.
272
00:10:20,560 --> 00:10:21,480
Baloo.
273
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,320
It is so blue.
274
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,120
Like, the blue is blue that ever blued.
275
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:26,640
You know?
276
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:27,440
Yeah.
277
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:27,960
OK.
278
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,200
So I'm sensing a theme with the lights.
279
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,280
Yeah, it makes the blue lights.
280
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:33,920
OK.
281
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:34,840
OK.
282
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,080
Even some of the first proposed names for the lake
283
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:44,640
were mystery lake, deep blue lake, and lake majesty.
284
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,360
Oh.
285
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,000
So it's very like otherworldly--
286
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,720
The old majesty.
287
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:56,400
And I have some very fun photos that I'm going to text to you guys.
288
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,240
They're really old.
289
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,040
They're photos from--
290
00:10:59,040 --> 00:10:59,880
[LAUGHTER]
291
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,480
Cassie was a little kid with her little baby brother.
292
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,840
Just a baby.
293
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,240
At crater lake with her family.
294
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:08,120
Oh.
295
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:08,720
Wow.
296
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,080
Yeah, it is.
297
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:10,600
Baloo.
298
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:11,640
So blue.
299
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,360
These are like scanned actual photos that were developed
300
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:16,880
from film, you guys.
301
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,960
OK.
302
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,800
I'm just like laughing at my outfit,
303
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,160
because I'm wearing like blue camo pants
304
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,000
and like a blue shirt that I'm pretty sure was my mom's.
305
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,000
Oh, yeah.
306
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,440
That's a classic look.
307
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,520
And I think these are like zip off pants.
308
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,080
I think they zip off into capris.
309
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,200
But we'll definitely have to share those pictures
310
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,400
with you guys, because they're funny.
311
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,120
I think so.
312
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,880
So why is this lake so blue?
313
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,560
Well, I'll tell you, because I Google it.
314
00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:45,960
Oh, OK.
315
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,800
Well, for starters, she's real deep, like real deep.
316
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,200
The caldera depression is about 4,000 feet deep.
317
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,440
That's too many.
318
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:58,960
And the maximum depth of the lake recorded in 2000
319
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,920
is 1,949 feet.
320
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,440
So that's still like really, really deep for a lake.
321
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:06,320
I'm actually--
322
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,720
I'm comfortable with both of those numbers, actually.
323
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,120
Actually.
324
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,000
It's actually the deepest lake in the United States.
325
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,200
OK, that tracks.
326
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:16,760
Yeah.
327
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,920
And it's like one of the deepest in the world, too.
328
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,920
So she's a pretty big deal.
329
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,120
It's just not that deep, you know?
330
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,960
Crater Lake would disagree with you.
331
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,640
I don't want to stir if I with her.
332
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,960
The water is also incredibly clean and clear,
333
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,240
since it's like rain and snow melt.
334
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,240
It's very clear water.
335
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,280
And there's very little pollution up there.
336
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:43,360
And I'm going to read a quote from the Oregon Explorer.
337
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,400
Ooh.
338
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,640
That will kind of explain the situation better
339
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,080
than I could in my own words.
340
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,440
OK.
341
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,440
Quote.
342
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,000
Sunlight is able to penetrate deep into the water.
343
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,680
The depth absorbs many of the longer rays
344
00:12:57,680 --> 00:13:02,440
and reflecting the shorter rays of the white light spectrum.
345
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,960
Red light is the longest wavelength,
346
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,840
thus gets absorbed.
347
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,200
Violet and blue light are the shortest wavelengths,
348
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,320
thus gets scattered and reflected back to us.
349
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,440
Oh, OK.
350
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,480
Scienced.
351
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:16,840
Scienced.
352
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,480
Yeah, so that kind of is why it's so blue,
353
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,200
because it's so deep that all of the other colors
354
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,720
just get absorbed into the water and don't reflect back.
355
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,800
Before our technology was so advanced
356
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,880
that we could actually measure like with the--
357
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:31,400
what's it?
358
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,400
Sonar?
359
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:32,920
Oh, OK.
360
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:33,640
Yeah, yeah.
361
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,400
The lake was thought to be bottomless,
362
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,240
because no one--
363
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:36,720
Oh, of course.
364
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,000
--if we find the bottom of it.
365
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,640
You could dig your way to China.
366
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,280
Exactly.
367
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,560
Does it go through the other side of the world?
368
00:13:43,560 --> 00:13:44,360
That's the vibe.
369
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:45,880
Just keep going.
370
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:46,840
It's just going--
371
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:47,920
it's like Mel's Hole.
372
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:48,680
Yeah.
373
00:13:48,680 --> 00:14:10,200
Haste. Oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Last from the past. The Klamath people even thought of it as like a gateway to the underworld because the whole, you know, the god fighting situation where the chief of the mountain was like the god of the underworld, or the chief of the underworld. I said that backwards but you guys know what I mean.
374
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:24,760
And they treated it as a sacred space. Okay. And some believe you shouldn't even gaze upon the water's hypnotic surface. She says after she texts us like multiple pictures of it.
375
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:33,560
They're pictures though. They're not you're not in person. It's different. Okay. Well, suddenly I'm feeling super okay about never having been.
376
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:49,640
But like the water is it's hypnotic, but it's kind of a darker blue than Hpnotiq though. Yeah. I mean Hpnotiq blue. Yeah. It's like a much lighter blue. It's more of like a tropical like white sand beach kind of a blue.
377
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:54,400
I think the blue color can kind of change depending on. Yeah.
378
00:14:54,400 --> 00:15:08,400
It can go a little lighter, a little darker, but I don't think it would go that light. Yeah. Anyway, back to our story. Right. It was thought that if you gaze too long at the lake, you eventually wouldn't be able to look away. Oh, great.
379
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:18,000
Kind of like when you look at my face. And then I wrote in parentheses in like dark blue. The sentence is going to be really hard to say but make a traumatic.
380
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:27,960
I don't know. Not supposed to be theatrical. You got I'm fucking dead. How did my horoscope know? I can't see if I can get this out on the first try.
381
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:34,840
The stunningly beautiful, but equally deadly depths would lure you to your death.
382
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,840
Oh, wow.
383
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:47,680
I actually got it though. I said it the first time you did. And that I feel like right now like my body needs to burp and
384
00:15:47,680 --> 00:16:00,400
it made me so nervous. I'm like grasping myself like, yeah, we're going to come back to this topic a little later on. Oh, okay.
385
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:05,400
So this is super unfortunately on theme for Thanksgiving. What?
386
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:14,760
So when we came and you know, we did that thing where we kind of took all of the land from the people that that already lived here. Yeah.
387
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:25,120
You remember when that happened. Yeah. So there was a treaty that was signed that was supposed to allow the Klamath tribes to keep the land where Crater Lake was.
388
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,120
Oh, no.
389
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:39,000
Yeah. And then I guess the lake was too alluring. And we're just like, nah, we got to have it. You guys can't have it. We know we signed a treaty but we're going to take it anyway.
390
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:47,760
You have enough land. You know, we gave you we gave you some you're fine. Yeah. Great. So they took this sacred space.
391
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,760
Oh, no.
392
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:58,800
People who really respected it. But you know, at least we turn it into a national park. So that kind of I think that came a lot later.
393
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:07,480
Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, a lot after yeah, after they found it. But at least we made it one. So we have like some sort of respect for the land.
394
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:13,560
Yeah. Yeah. Great. That's why we call it Turkey day now. Yeah.
395
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:20,600
No, you think well, your land didn't get stolen from you day. Oh, boy.
396
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,320
Wait, I'm sorry. What land?
397
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:31,720
I know. Okay. I guess. Yeah. We don't really have any other makes you feel better. Generations later. We also have no land.
398
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:40,320
Not the same. Not going to equate those but, uh, wow. And I guess they can take it from you. If you owe money of some sort.
399
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:48,080
I can still just get your land taken away from you. Also eminent domain. So just like nothing is safe or secure ever.
400
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:57,520
And we're just entering a period of time when the conservatives have taken over everything that holds our country together.
401
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:11,560
And I'm sure that will be fine in 1853. John Hillman, along with two other men, we're searching for the last cabin gold mine, which sounds like really cool. I don't know why.
402
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:23,840
I want to go searching for the lost cabin gold mine. It's always a john. You know, yeah. Those very common name is still this. Yeah. Hillman or John, if you're nice.
403
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:39,160
And of course we are. So, so John with the help of his donkey became the first white man to discover crater lake. Don't get donkey. Don't get.
404
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:50,400
I can just imagine like their whole journey up there was like track. It was like tracking. Yeah. Yeah. And then all of a sudden he gets to the top and he is like, wow.
405
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:58,080
This must be what Christopher Columbus felt like I discovered something. Yeah. Let me just stuff.
406
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:07,960
Boy, so he's to be clear, the first white man to discover it. Not the first person to discover at all by a long shot.
407
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,920
Not by like a lot. No.
408
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:20,480
One source said that he saw a snow white deer with pink eyes on his way there. And I'm like, really care for that. Was that a good omen or a warning?
409
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:34,840
I feel like that's a valid question. Like I would need to be there and like feel the vibe. Yeah. Cause a pink deer or not a pink deer, a white deer with pink eyes would be like, could feel like kind of cute. And I think it would be cute.
410
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,400
We're going to need a vibe check on aisle three.
411
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:47,600
Let's go back to 8253 and find john and his donkey and go get the vibe check. Yeah. I feel like if I'm time traveling.
412
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:58,920
I just may have other pressing things to do. Yeah. Currently, but that's true. Yeah. Well, I'll be a crater like you can go do whatever you want. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
413
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:07,640
We just get like a pass and then we both can go and do the things we need. Yeah. And then we'll meet up four years from now. Yeah. Okay.
414
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:38,680
That sounds about right. Yeah. Yeah. Oh goodness. In the 90s, there were some earthquakes that emanated from the previously thought to be dormant volcano. So like in the late. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I was afraid you were going to say that. And I had a feeling that I put my left foot down a little too soon. And you know, you love it and you hate it when you're right. Yeah.
415
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:48,400
So I don't know. It's not very clear if it's dormant or not because there's been like activity. I don't have any for you.
416
00:20:48,400 --> 00:21:06,120
I'm so keen. We'll just have to go visit and see if the ground shakes. You know, wow. You're just really living on the edge today. I know I don't like volcanoes. But for some reason, if it's filled with water, I feel okay about it. Yeah. That's totally fine.
417
00:21:06,360 --> 00:21:15,120
You know what would make this volcano super chill is if it was at the bottom of like a super deep lake with a lot of water that it could just like.
418
00:21:15,120 --> 00:21:18,720
It would be like a volcano tsunami.
419
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:23,240
But the water will stop a lot of from coming out, right?
420
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,400
Sharknado.
421
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:35,280
Like it is. It's sharknado. It's the sharknado. There's the sharknado of natural disasters. And I for one will not be here for it.
422
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:43,720
Sir, no sharks in the lake, you guys. I'm not saying actual sharks. I'm just saying it's this crazy hybrid that like I don't I don't need that.
423
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:49,560
Well, do you want to move on to something that's kind of more interesting and sciencey real quick before we get into some other stuff?
424
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,760
I'm tempted to say yes.
425
00:21:53,320 --> 00:22:04,920
Crater Lake has no inner out. So it doesn't have like rivers going into it. Nothing is flowing out of it. Yet there's always rainfall like new rainfall and snow melt.
426
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:11,600
But it never overflows despite having twice as much precipitation as evaporation.
427
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,160
Suspicious. Yeah.
428
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:23,880
I thought that was like kind of interesting because this was like never really a thought for me. I was just like, oh yeah, it evaporates and it falls back down like that's how it happens.
429
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,880
But then I read like the twice.
430
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:36,160
It's like surrounded by trees though. Like is it just the trees like sucking up their like rogue greedy? No, I don't know. That's not it. I have an answer for you. Okay.
431
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,040
It's because volcanic rock is quite porous.
432
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:47,520
And so it lets enough water through all of the volcanic rock that surrounds the lake to kind of maintain the water level.
433
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,640
Interesting. So that's like its own.
434
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,840
I can't think of the words like a built-in like filter.
435
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,600
Yeah. Yeah. It kind of has its own filter.
436
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:04,520
Just slowly like corroding the volcanic rock, making its way to China.
437
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:11,000
Totally. That's how science works. I mean, except, yeah, I don't know. I was going to make a joke about tariffs, but
438
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:16,600
So crater lake is open all year round. You can go visit it.
439
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,160
And I imagine in the winter, you'll want to plan accordingly.
440
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:25,040
Have the necessary like winter mountain hiking stuff with you.
441
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:30,160
Chains, chains, make sure you're warm enough. You have enough water.
442
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:36,000
Stuff like that. Don't get don't get stuck in the snow because, um, spoiler alert that has happened.
443
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:41,440
And you can drive around the lake to or take a trolley tour.
444
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:46,560
And there's of course hiking and glorious viewpoints all around.
445
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,960
There are some unique islands and crater lake.
446
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,360
A love it. On the west side of the lake is wizard island.
447
00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:56,480
A door, a double.
448
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,360
And no, it's not a Harry Potter theme park.
449
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:09,400
Well, that's okay. I feel like at this point, we've all decided as a society that we're just not really wanting to send any more money.
450
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:14,240
JK's way. Oh no, I will send. I'm sorry. I'm not giving up my Harry Potter.
451
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:19,520
You can cancel me if you want to. I don't like her as a person, but you're not taking Harry Potter from me.
452
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,800
Oh no. No one's it's in the ether. So it exists.
453
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,840
I will go to wizard island and make sure it's not a Harry Potter theme park for everyone.
454
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,720
Okay, just to be just to be sure. I haven't checked.
455
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,040
That's your crossbar now.
456
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:41,040
But it is a volcanic cinder cone that looks like a wizard hat.
457
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:46,040
Oh, and I did send you a picture of it. It is in one of my pictures.
458
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:50,840
I feel like that looks more like a, like a little miniature mountain or volcano.
459
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,960
I wouldn't have pictured a wizard's hat wizard hat.
460
00:24:54,080 --> 00:25:00,200
I know. Right? Like this was named so long ago and they thought of a wizard's hat, but okay.
461
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,600
What I want to know is like how far that is from the bank.
462
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:16,800
Because as you know, I have an overriding desire to climb the islands when I'm near a body of water.
463
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,000
It is not attached. You do have to take a boat there.
464
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:27,200
Okay, so it's pretty far. So it's not like that other picture that I have where I'm like, I climbed it.
465
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,520
And you're not you're not allowed to swim in there like you're without like permits.
466
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,200
So I think I maybe talk about this later. I'm not sure.
467
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:39,360
Yeah, you don't want to go swim in there because it's like a very fragile ecosystem.
468
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:41,960
It's very clean. They don't want. They don't want.
469
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,080
It's a national heart. That makes sense. Yeah. Yeah.
470
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:49,240
And some people think that wizard island is haunted.
471
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,320
People say they see campfires and or smoke on the island.
472
00:25:54,320 --> 00:26:00,720
But when ranger search the island for trespassers because you're definitely not supposed to go there at night.
473
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:07,080
They don't find anyone there when they go to search for these campfires that they're seeing.
474
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:07,760
Okay.
475
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:13,880
And more importantly, they don't find any like fires left behind.
476
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:19,120
They don't find any extinguish. They find no evidence of any fires or anyone being there.
477
00:26:19,360 --> 00:26:22,960
Cause no one's just like chilling out right island. Yeah.
478
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,880
That would be kind of weird if they were. It's very remote.
479
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,640
Is it weird or is it like a thing that we all want to do?
480
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,320
I mean, it might be.
481
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,320
So they do both for us to the island.
482
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,720
So you can go to the island on a boat.
483
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,400
So you can actually go and like set foot on the island. Yeah.
484
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,240
Okay. I don't think you're supposed to take your own boat out there.
485
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,480
I think you have to know that makes sense.
486
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,920
Take their tour or you have to get a permit or something to dive there.
487
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:51,960
It's a national park.
488
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,760
They don't have like a boat launch.
489
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,400
They're like, there is our boat.
490
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,920
And that's the boat that you can go on.
491
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,120
Yeah. Thank you.
492
00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:00,080
And you're welcome.
493
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,000
And you definitely can't stay there.
494
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,000
You can't camp overnight or anything like that.
495
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,680
So there should literally be nobody out there.
496
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:07,480
Yeah.
497
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,280
So scene fires is weird.
498
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,440
I'm like, are they fires though?
499
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:13,440
Or are they like?
500
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,920
Are they lights? Because they say sometimes they see smoke with no fire.
501
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,520
Or like, what is that?
502
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,680
Like the monster from last.
503
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,000
Yeah. That's kind of what I was thinking.
504
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,800
It's a smoke monster.
505
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:28,560
Okay.
506
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,240
You saw one of those recently.
507
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:30,600
Yeah.
508
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:31,760
And it was totally fine.
509
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,800
And everybody just moved on and talked about it.
510
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:36,560
Talked about it again.
511
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,040
What?
512
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:43,800
There's another island on the southeast side of the lake called
513
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,440
Phantom ship Island.
514
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:50,680
That doesn't sound like probably the island I would pick.
515
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:51,920
That's like fun.
516
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,400
You don't want to go on a ship.
517
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:54,880
Phantom ship.
518
00:27:54,880 --> 00:28:00,040
A phantom ship that you have to get on a ship to go out to Phantom ship.
519
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,080
You're not seeing a problem with that.
520
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:09,240
So this was volcanic cone that formed in the shape of a ship.
521
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:16,480
And they call it Phantom because it can appear to disappear at certain angles,
522
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,040
depending on the weather.
523
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:18,600
Yeah.
524
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:18,880
Yeah.
525
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:19,560
That makes sense.
526
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,040
So it is not like land really.
527
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,840
It's kind of just like pointed up like rocks just like in like
528
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:27,680
abtruision.
529
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:28,200
Yeah.
530
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:28,920
Like this.
531
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,000
You know, that feels like a word.
532
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,240
All right.
533
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,120
There's something else about the lake.
534
00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:39,240
That does sound truly spooky in all of the ways.
535
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:40,680
Hmm.
536
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,480
The old man of the lake.
537
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,440
Okay.
538
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,000
But it's not really how it sounds.
539
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:55,240
So this old man is actually a log from a hemlock tree that floats upright
540
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:56,240
around the lake.
541
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,960
Okay.
542
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:03,360
There is three feet sticking out of the water, leaving the rest of its 30 feet
543
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:04,240
below water.
544
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,720
So he just literally bobs around like this in the lake all day.
545
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:08,400
Okay.
546
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:13,240
I mean, the whole time you were talking about this and I just want you to
547
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:17,480
picture this because it wasn't a very long sentence, but I'm just like,
548
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,880
get off my lawn the entire time in my head on a loop.
549
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,280
Honestly, that's kind of the old man's vibe.
550
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:25,080
Oh, great.
551
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:25,600
Okay.
552
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,480
You see you picked up on it.
553
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:28,200
Okay.
554
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:32,960
But I wrote this is a real iceberg situation because it's got like three
555
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,680
feet sticking out and like 27 feet down below.
556
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:37,520
Down below.
557
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:38,040
Yeah.
558
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,800
Was it just chill in there?
559
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,920
Dude, nobody knows.
560
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:43,880
We'll talk about it.
561
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:48,840
So the first recorded sighting of the old man was in 1896,
562
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:53,800
but tests of the log show that he is at least 450 years old.
563
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,280
So he could be older.
564
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,040
Super chill.
565
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,720
I'm fine with that.
566
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,640
And that doesn't necessarily mean he's been floating for 450 years.
567
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,200
They just, they almost test it.
568
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,560
Worst, just like the log is that old.
569
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,560
So they don't actually know how long he's been floating for.
570
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,160
Nobody knows why or how the old man stays afloat.
571
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,520
There's no roots weighing it down like they see.
572
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:21,840
They see in other places as like there's these trees that will float,
573
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,720
but they have like large root systems holding them in place.
574
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,040
This one doesn't have that.
575
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:26,960
Okay.
576
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,080
So I don't like that.
577
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,800
There's nothing else weighing it down.
578
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,240
They think that it's possibly because it's been submerged in the cold water
579
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:39,360
so long that it like changes the density and like helps it stay up right.
580
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,200
A bunch of scientists should I like was glazing over.
581
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:43,360
I didn't really understand.
582
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,000
Yeah.
583
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,440
But the point is that they don't really know why.
584
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,480
That's super chill.
585
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:50,560
It's so creepy.
586
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:51,320
I don't.
587
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:52,480
Okay.
588
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,960
Some people think he's the spirit of the lake or a protector of the lake.
589
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,080
I feel like that would explain a lot.
590
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:07,200
Once they tried to tie up the old man to the shore so that he wouldn't cause damage to boats
591
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,800
because they were doing like submarine searches under the water
592
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,000
and they didn't want to like bump into the old man.
593
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:13,920
Okay.
594
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,400
So they tried to tie him up.
595
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,240
It didn't go well.
596
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,760
I was going to say doesn't seem like this is going to end well.
597
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,280
The calm weather rapidly turned dangerous.
598
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:28,080
And when they release the log,
599
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,120
because they're like, well, we can't die now anyway.
600
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,920
We might as well like release the log.
601
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,760
The weather went back to normal.
602
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,840
I don't think they've ever tried it again.
603
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,920
Because like don't don't fuck with the gods, you guys.
604
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:46,480
I think he's like one of like definitely a spirit watching over the lake.
605
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:47,160
For sure.
606
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:47,520
Yeah.
607
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,120
He's like, actually, I'm in charge here.
608
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:54,000
So I'll thank you to what's that phrase again?
609
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,960
Get off my lock.
610
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:56,480
Yes.
611
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:57,320
See?
612
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:58,960
You were picking up the energy.
613
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,280
Wow.
614
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:07,160
Obviously floating around in the lake isn't the most gentle of lives, as you can imagine.
615
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:12,520
The old man's wood used to protrude like four feet above the surface.
616
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,280
But his type appears to be shrinking.
617
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,960
Oh no.
618
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,160
You hate to see it.
619
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,560
So he's gone down like a foot.
620
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,200
So he is sinking you guys rough times,
621
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:30,200
leaving people concerned about what's going to happen when the last of the old man
622
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:35,200
finally sinks below the deep blue surface of crater lake.
623
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,880
Yeah.
624
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,200
We should probably be checking on that.
625
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:39,720
Yeah.
626
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,080
They're keeping an eye on it.
627
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:42,320
Obviously it took.
628
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,520
It's been there for a long time and it's it's a chunk of foot.
629
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,800
So it's got three to go.
630
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:49,600
Yeah.
631
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,200
So let's do the math on that.
632
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,800
Let's figure out how long he's been floating around there.
633
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:54,440
Uh-huh.
634
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:55,360
We don't know for sure.
635
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:55,840
Yeah.
636
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:56,520
Listen.
637
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:57,040
Okay.
638
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,560
Keep your eye on that old man wood.
639
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:00,560
Yes.
640
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,320
Everyone keep your eye on all of the old man wood.
641
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,360
Make sure it doesn't catch you off guard.
642
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:14,560
I'm wondering if the old man ever sinks if like that's when it's going to explode again.
643
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,280
Oh.
644
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,320
Yeah.
645
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:18,800
Activation.
646
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,200
Seriously.
647
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:20,920
I don't know.
648
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:21,520
Okay.
649
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:26,880
So seriously though, like we say this jokingly, but then also with all seriousness,
650
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,600
someone keeping eye on the old man's wood.
651
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,160
Yes.
652
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,080
Keep an eye on the activity.
653
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,480
I'm like, I'm curious to see if as it gets lower if like the,
654
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:44,000
yeah, the earthquake activity will pick up or are there just like changes to the ecosystem?
655
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,440
Or I don't know.
656
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:46,720
Wow.
657
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:53,120
I'm really happy that no one has like snuck on and like trust passed and like done anything bad to him.
658
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:53,760
I don't like,
659
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,760
like, stolen him or something, you know?
660
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:56,680
Yeah.
661
00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:01,560
That would be such a typical, but very dickish move.
662
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:02,200
But I don't know.
663
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,400
Maybe maybe people have tried and like,
664
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,160
and they've failed.
665
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:07,200
They've failed.
666
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:07,960
Yeah.
667
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:09,560
Oh, no.
668
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:15,640
Well, this, this whole thing kind of made me think because there's like wood above the surface
669
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:17,960
and there's wood below the surface.
670
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:23,520
In the beginning, we talked about the chief of the above world, the chief of the below world.
671
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:32,160
It kind of made me think of as above so below, like that whole relating back to that old, old, old story too for me.
672
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,400
I kind of picture a sea saw.
673
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:39,280
It's like almost a battle between the above and the below.
674
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,440
I wonder if, if maybe he'll go back up to four feet or something.
675
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:43,960
Yeah.
676
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,800
Like, or if he'll just keep sinking.
677
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:46,800
I don't know.
678
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:51,720
There's a little bit more of a traditional haunting at crater lake lodge.
679
00:34:51,720 --> 00:34:52,720
Okay.
680
00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:59,640
A family stayed there and ended up leaving after the first night, even though they planned to stay two nights.
681
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:00,480
Okay.
682
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:05,800
They said that there was a quote overwhelming feeling of doom and dread.
683
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:11,240
I mean, and they put that in like a yelp review or no.
684
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:17,480
This was a comment, I think, on one of the stories about cron like, but yeah.
685
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,280
So they made a comment on it about how they just felt this really bad vibe there.
686
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:26,320
And they had to get out immediately, even though they planned to stay another night.
687
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,880
They were just like, no, we got to go.
688
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:28,840
Trust your gut.
689
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:34,480
And other people say that there is a ghostly little girl hanging out in the halls there.
690
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,240
You know how I feel about this?
691
00:35:36,240 --> 00:35:36,960
I do.
692
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:43,120
And I know how you feel about this too. There is a male spirit that frequents the elevator.
693
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,360
No kids, no men.
694
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,160
Everyone.
695
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:52,200
I feel like at a certain point in my just saying like, it's too people.
696
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:58,560
Although a man on an elevator, come on.
697
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,800
Tell me that's not creepy.
698
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:01,600
Yeah.
699
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,520
I dare you.
700
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,840
That's like, okay, still it's an elevator, but like I picked the bear.
701
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:13,520
At least he's not a man that's like hanging out by like the escalator or the stairs,
702
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,960
like trying to look up skirts and shit, you know?
703
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:16,800
No.
704
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:17,960
Yeah.
705
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,040
God, sometimes I forget about the things we talk about.
706
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,680
And then you like, pair it back to me stuff from my episode.
707
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,760
And I'm like, oh no.
708
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,280
Them up skirt.
709
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,520
But us.
710
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:30,520
Whoa.
711
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,200
Boy.
712
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,360
Uh, go.
713
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:38,960
Go, go, go. That was it. Oh, go. Okay. Because of the remoteness of crater lake,
714
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:44,000
there have, of course been big foot sighting.
715
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,760
Uh, hey.
716
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:51,360
There's a story of Rangers spotting something large and foul smelling.
717
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:52,800
That's right.
718
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,200
I forget he's famously stinky.
719
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:56,160
So stinky.
720
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:56,760
Yeah.
721
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:58,040
Very smelly.
722
00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:58,840
No, thank you.
723
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,680
You need some ax body spray.
724
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,920
Oh, I don't know that that's what we want.
725
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:03,480
Yeah.
726
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:04,840
If you're really stinky, you just cook.
727
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,600
You can cover it up with the ax body spray.
728
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:07,640
That's how that works.
729
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:13,400
I feel like there's an entire generation of men that have documented that's simply not the case.
730
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:17,200
Means God be better than just his natural scent.
731
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:17,960
I don't know.
732
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,520
Okay.
733
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,520
Listen, not a sponsor.
734
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:28,200
Maybe, I don't know, maybe try the breeze for breeze.
735
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:28,760
Yeah.
736
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,440
Because it does have all that fur.
737
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,720
So that the for breeze can like sink into that.
738
00:37:33,720 --> 00:37:35,800
Yeah, you're gonna get like the pet one.
739
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:36,280
Yeah.
740
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:41,320
We should go big foot hunting and just be armed with pet for breeze.
741
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:46,040
That's our big, that's how we get the big sponsorship.
742
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,480
Well, let's get back to the big foot story.
743
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:50,360
Right.
744
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:55,800
So the Rangers that spotted the large foul smelling creature roaming through the woods.
745
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:03,320
They followed it and they had pine cones thrown at them as they got closer, which is like a huge
746
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,000
theme through big foot stories.
747
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:07,640
Okay.
748
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:07,960
Yeah.
749
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:09,000
The kind of report.
750
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:09,640
Yeah.
751
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,640
It was like he throws stuff at you.
752
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:12,040
Okay.
753
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,160
So let's keep going down the cryptid path.
754
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:15,720
Shall we?
755
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:17,400
All right.
756
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,800
And talk about the crater lake serpent.
757
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:21,880
Shut the fuck up.
758
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,320
Of course, there's a body of water.
759
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,400
There's a fucking serpent in it.
760
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:27,720
Okay.
761
00:38:27,720 --> 00:38:33,720
There's some sort of cryptid creature living in the lake, especially if it's this deep.
762
00:38:33,720 --> 00:38:35,880
Do you know what's down there, man?
763
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:36,440
Yeah.
764
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,040
It's him and Adele.
765
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,520
Rolling.
766
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:46,280
So a woman named Mattie Hatcher was on a boat tour on the lake.
767
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:51,320
When she saw something huge and dragon like swim underneath them,
768
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,320
I feel like it's probably fine.
769
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,000
I would just ignore that.
770
00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:00,440
A huge dragon like serpent was swimming under your boat.
771
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:05,480
Unfortunately, no one else saw it and she tried to tell people about it and they didn't believe
772
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:06,440
her, which is rude.
773
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,640
Crazy.
774
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:08,840
Yeah.
775
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,200
She's just a woman.
776
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,360
Why didn't she eat that day?
777
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:13,480
Was she hungry?
778
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,880
Honestly, she's hysterical.
779
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,200
She's not in a funny way.
780
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,080
She's so hungry.
781
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,520
She could eat that dragon.
782
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,520
[laughter]
783
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:23,000
Okay.
784
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:24,360
What haven't we touched on yet?
785
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:25,880
Oh yeah.
786
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:26,520
UFOs.
787
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:27,480
Oh!
788
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:35,960
So people tend to see UFOs or UAPs as disc-shaped lights flying at incredible speeds
789
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,960
and even submerging into the lake.
790
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,480
Okay.
791
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,480
I was like, well, what does that have to do with the lake?
792
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,880
They see them flying around the lake and even like going down into the lake.
793
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,560
I wonder if they live in the lake.
794
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,040
Perfect.
795
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,520
Do they come from space or do they come from the lake?
796
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,360
That's why it's so deep.
797
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:55,880
Aliens.
798
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:56,520
Man.
799
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,520
[laughter]
800
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,760
This is starting to sound like the other show.
801
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:01,240
No.
802
00:40:01,240 --> 00:40:03,320
We are not like them.
803
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:04,120
I promise.
804
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:08,120
Let's move on to like some sad stuff, unfortunately.
805
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:08,840
I'm so sorry.
806
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,280
Cool.
807
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,800
As with any other large wilderness area,
808
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,640
there are a number of deaths and missing persons cases.
809
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:19,880
In national parties.
810
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:20,360
Yeah.
811
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,320
I mean, it happens.
812
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,040
We all know.
813
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:22,760
We all know.
814
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,240
It's treacherous out there, you guys.
815
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:27,880
That's why I'm like, if you go, make sure you're prepared.
816
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,920
Even if you just think you're going hiking for a day,
817
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,120
just be prepared for all of the possibilities.
818
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:34,680
Yeah.
819
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,200
Food, water, blankets,
820
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,800
watch your step, you know, those kinds of things.
821
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,240
I'm sure there's other things.
822
00:40:41,240 --> 00:40:43,160
Oh my god, there was such a sad story.
823
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,120
It didn't include it.
824
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:50,600
But some a woman was sitting down on a ledge and fainted and fell off
825
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,600
because I think she was like too hungry.
826
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,280
She didn't eat enough or something,
827
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,160
or she got like too hot or didn't have a water or something.
828
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:58,280
But where she fainted.
829
00:40:58,280 --> 00:40:59,000
She fainted.
830
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,920
So eat, drink water.
831
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:03,400
I get all of those.
832
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,760
I get two, all of those things all the time.
833
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,200
And I would literally fall.
834
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:10,040
Don't sit on any ledges.
835
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:10,840
Make sure to sit.
836
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:11,720
I would never.
837
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:14,760
Not close to any cliffs anywhere you could fall off.
838
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,120
Just sit on the ground.
839
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:17,960
It's so sad and scary.
840
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,320
So be careful, everyone.
841
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:23,640
But we're going to talk about something that happened in 1975.
842
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:27,320
19-year-old photographer Charles McCullar
843
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,280
went missing while visiting crater lake
844
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,400
to take some stunning winter landscapes.
845
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:34,200
Okay.
846
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:38,280
They searched, but they found no sign of Charles.
847
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,200
Charles!
848
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,440
I mean, oh no.
849
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:47,640
Until a year later, when two hikers found his remains.
850
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,720
A year later.
851
00:41:49,720 --> 00:41:51,320
I mean, it was winter.
852
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:52,120
We've talked about it.
853
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,200
It's really hard to search for people in the winter.
854
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,040
I mean, it feels like it shouldn't be.
855
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,400
If there's snow on the ground,
856
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,840
you should be able to track his movement very easily.
857
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,760
I mean, I would keep snowing like,
858
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,600
I don't know.
859
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,200
It just like covers up your tracks.
860
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:07,400
Maybe.
861
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:08,360
There was a lot of snow.
862
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:09,240
We'll talk about it.
863
00:42:09,240 --> 00:42:09,720
Okay.
864
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,920
I mean, this is like your territory I'm getting into here.
865
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,520
So you should be excited.
866
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:15,720
I mean, is it?
867
00:42:15,720 --> 00:42:16,440
Kind of.
868
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:17,480
All right.
869
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,920
His remains consisted of only foot bones,
870
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,960
broken shin bones, and the crown of his skull,
871
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,920
which was found 12 feet away from the rest of him.
872
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,520
Excuse me?
873
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,840
Which is like animals get to it.
874
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,520
That sort of makes sense, but I'm going to talk about some other stuff.
875
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,640
Authorities think that he just got lost in the snow,
876
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,760
possibly fell down and succumbed to the elements.
877
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:46,280
And then animals decided that they needed to eat, you know, it happens.
878
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:50,840
As they do, there was like seven feet of snow on the ground
879
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:51,880
at the time that he went.
880
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:56,200
It's not great to be out there in that deep of snow
881
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,880
unless you're like fully prepared.
882
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,280
If you've done it a lot, even if you have done a lot before,
883
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,760
I feel like people still shit happens.
884
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:03,400
Yes.
885
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:04,760
Oh my god.
886
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,200
So many things can happen.
887
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:06,600
Yeah.
888
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,200
Watch the Revenant and they'll show you all of the things that can happen.
889
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,360
There's so bears that crater lake.
890
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:13,880
There's not?
891
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:14,200
No.
892
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,880
There's not.
893
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:16,520
Oh, okay.
894
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,960
So we're going with that.
895
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,360
No report of bear sightings, just big foot.
896
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:21,080
Totally.
897
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:26,440
But Charles's family thinks that the remains point to something more sinister.
898
00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:31,880
He was found 12 miles from the trail head that he was planning to take.
899
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,920
Remember that seven feet of snow?
900
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:37,880
Yeah.
901
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,640
I wrote inches, I pretty sure it's feet.
902
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:44,360
Seven feet of snow and how do you get 12 miles in that?
903
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,800
That's a lot of snow.
904
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:46,920
It is a lot of snow.
905
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:47,960
It's a lot of snow.
906
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:53,480
His jeans were on top of the log as if he'd been sitting on it.
907
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:59,080
And inside his jeans is actually where they found the broken shin bones.
908
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,960
Yeah, it's fucking weird, dude.
909
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:03,160
Okay. Well, here.
910
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:09,400
So I was going to say like there are a lot of famous cases where people may have succumbed to
911
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,000
essentially hypothermia and find them naked.
912
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:18,200
Yeah, that's one of the things because his jeans were, his jeans were unbuttoned and his belt was
913
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:19,400
undone as well.
914
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:19,880
Okay.
915
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:20,200
Right.
916
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,440
But what they don't find inside the clothes is their bones.
917
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:24,840
Right.
918
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:28,680
So he had, he either was like undressing or because there's more.
919
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:29,320
Trust me.
920
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:29,880
There's more.
921
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:30,680
Okay.
922
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:31,480
But wait.
923
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:32,680
There's more.
924
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,160
So I said his jeans were unbuttoned.
925
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:35,960
His belt was undone.
926
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,720
His jacket, shirt and boots were never recovered.
927
00:44:39,720 --> 00:44:41,720
So those were all missing.
928
00:44:41,720 --> 00:44:49,720
I don't know if maybe he like stripped along the way or if the animals like take your clothes.
929
00:44:49,720 --> 00:44:50,360
I don't know.
930
00:44:50,360 --> 00:45:01,000
Okay, but animals don't take your clothes and then delicately place bones back inside of the
931
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,040
clothes.
932
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:02,040
Well, I don't know.
933
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:07,640
I feel like he was like on the log and then he was, I don't know if he was just sitting there
934
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:13,720
when he passed away and then all that was left were like his shin bones, but they were also broken.
935
00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:16,440
So I don't know if the animals do that.
936
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,040
That don't look like a fall.
937
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:18,680
Yeah.
938
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:23,080
But like how did he get on top of the stump?
939
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:23,640
I don't know.
940
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,240
It's very weird.
941
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:33,240
Yeah. And his toe or his feet bones were still in his socks, which that kind of makes sense.
942
00:45:33,240 --> 00:45:38,120
It makes me think of like the feet that are found that wash up on the shore.
943
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:44,440
And they've said that, you know, the bones will stay in there and they will kind of stay intact
944
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,280
because they're protected by the --
945
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:47,720
And we all believe that.
946
00:45:47,720 --> 00:45:50,680
For sure.
947
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,560
Like your shin bone doesn't stay in the pit.
948
00:45:53,560 --> 00:46:00,200
Like that's not the only -- if you were sitting on the log when you died and then animals
949
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:08,280
ravage your carcass, they're not just going to find a singular shin bone in the pit.
950
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:09,720
I'm sorry.
951
00:46:09,720 --> 00:46:10,280
No.
952
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:10,520
Yeah.
953
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:11,320
I don't know.
954
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:17,960
I was like thinking that if maybe it was broken enough to where it broke off and then if they drug
955
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,720
the rest of like the legs away, if those just stayed in.
956
00:46:21,720 --> 00:46:25,000
But like I don't know. I'm not trying to think about it that hard either.
957
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:25,720
I don't like it.
958
00:46:25,720 --> 00:46:26,200
I don't know.
959
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:27,080
I'm going to be honest.
960
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:28,760
I don't like it at all.
961
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:29,480
But I agree.
962
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,960
We do need to know how tight the pants were.
963
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:33,320
I don't know how tight the pants were.
964
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,000
I don't have those answers for you.
965
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:41,800
But there is another weird thing that his camera equipment and money were never found either.
966
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:46,680
So he obviously had camera equipment with him.
967
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,560
He was traveling.
968
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:52,760
So I'm sure he had money on him.
969
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,360
His family kind of think that maybe someone else was involved.
970
00:46:56,360 --> 00:47:04,440
Maybe robbed him and that feels like a fair assessment based on the information that I have.
971
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:04,600
Yeah.
972
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:11,400
And his brother actually wrote one of the articles I got a bunch of this information from.
973
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,080
Interesting.
974
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:13,240
Yeah.
975
00:47:13,240 --> 00:47:14,280
Wow.
976
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:16,200
It's so sad.
977
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,720
He was like 19 years old just trying to go.
978
00:47:19,720 --> 00:47:23,160
It takes some beautiful photos of crater lake.
979
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:23,560
Yeah.
980
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,400
He didn't make it.
981
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:30,760
This is so weird though because as you know, I am currently watching six feet under.
982
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:31,960
Yes.
983
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:42,200
And I'm just now at the episode where Ted Mosby in like a pretty sure 1975 drives his slug bug off the road.
984
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:49,400
And his skeleton is then found like whatever point in the show this is like 40 years later.
985
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:50,040
Spoiler alert.
986
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:58,280
I'm assuming that I'm the last person on earth to pick up six feet under.
987
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,520
Don't know how I miss that boat but.
988
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,520
Yeah, it's about a while.
989
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:03,080
Yeah.
990
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:04,040
Here we are.
991
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:05,320
I'm glad you're on the boat.
992
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:05,640
Yeah.
993
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,920
Don't get off the boat because the lake is steep.
994
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:12,200
And there's dragons in it.
995
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,400
Okay, well now my foot hurts too bad to put it back up.
996
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:19,080
So if you are curious though, there is like a whole.
997
00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:23,080
His brother got like all of the police documents.
998
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:24,360
You can like read through them.
999
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,840
It's kind of just a lot of back and forth.
1000
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,280
Like we can't find them.
1001
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:31,800
That we didn't.
1002
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:32,680
Yeah.
1003
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:33,400
We found this.
1004
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,480
But it was the 70s.
1005
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:36,200
If you're interested.
1006
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,240
That link is in the source.
1007
00:48:39,240 --> 00:48:41,640
I need a drink for this one.
1008
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,880
This one's a terrifying.
1009
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:50,440
A man known as Mr. Cornelius was sight seeing with his wife at Crater Lake.
1010
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,120
And no one knows why.
1011
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,200
But out of the blue.
1012
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,520
Get it out of the blue.
1013
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,880
That's my last joke because his story is really sad.
1014
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:07,000
Out of the blue, he hands his wife his wallet and purposefully slides down the snowy
1015
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:13,400
caldera wall down toward the lake. He was presumably trying to unalive himself.
1016
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:18,280
But he didn't make it to the lake and he just broke his leg.
1017
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,160
But that one stopped Mr. Cornelius.
1018
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:27,480
He continued to the water's edge and tragically proceeded to drown himself.
1019
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,000
He was very determined.
1020
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,960
I would say so.
1021
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,200
And literally nobody knows why.
1022
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:40,200
Like you're just having a day with your wife walking in nature and all the
1023
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:44,440
sun. You just give her your wallet and then like try to jump.
1024
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:45,560
But he didn't really jump.
1025
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:51,400
He just like slid down and then just you just go drown yourself.
1026
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:52,760
What?
1027
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:55,240
Oh wow.
1028
00:49:55,240 --> 00:49:58,840
So I don't know.
1029
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,080
No, me neither when I read it.
1030
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:02,360
I was like, what is this?
1031
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,640
This isn't something. So there was a lot of stories.
1032
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:10,600
I had to I was kind of like trying to Google to make sure I could find other records of the
1033
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,760
stories because there was one story that I was like that.
1034
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:14,760
That doesn't sound right.
1035
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:19,560
And I looked and it was like totally not even substantial.
1036
00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:20,600
Something that happened.
1037
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:20,920
Yeah.
1038
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,520
But this this is in like the records of the lake.
1039
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,440
Like the Rangers keep like documents.
1040
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,720
And the story is in those records.
1041
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:31,000
So like this happened.
1042
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:33,080
Yeah.
1043
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:34,200
Yeah.
1044
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:36,360
There was witnesses besides the wife.
1045
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,040
There was someone else that witnessed it.
1046
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,200
It's just it's so weird.
1047
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:41,560
Wow.
1048
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,680
Because I was thinking like, well, maybe if the wife is the only witness,
1049
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,360
like did she just like push him?
1050
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:47,400
You know, like yeah.
1051
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:47,560
Yeah.
1052
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:48,200
Yeah.
1053
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:48,920
It didn't actually happen.
1054
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:54,040
But yeah, there was other witnesses and it just it goes back to like that thing where
1055
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:58,200
if you stare at the lake too long, it might lure you to your death.
1056
00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,720
Yeah.
1057
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,280
You know what would be perfect right now.
1058
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:03,800
What?
1059
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:10,680
If we're not going to, but if we were to cut to a better hell bad.
1060
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:11,960
Yeah.
1061
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:13,240
Yes.
1062
00:51:13,240 --> 00:51:22,200
Like this feels like it has to be some sort of like a psychotic episode or a mental break.
1063
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:23,000
Yeah.
1064
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,160
That was so sad.
1065
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,280
And things just get sadder kind of from here.
1066
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,600
Great. So we're almost done. I promise.
1067
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:32,920
Okay.
1068
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:37,800
Several planes and even a helicopter have crashed into the lake.
1069
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,880
Remember what you said at the beginning of this before we started?
1070
00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:43,800
Something about crashing planes.
1071
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:44,600
I don't.
1072
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,680
I don't know.
1073
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,440
You're just picking up all the vibes today.
1074
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,360
That's fine.
1075
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:55,640
They think that most likely the pilots that are crashing are seeing
1076
00:51:55,640 --> 00:52:01,400
the like the mirror like reflection and getting confused on like what's up, what's down.
1077
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:02,840
Oh, I hate that.
1078
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:03,960
It's very scary.
1079
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:10,840
That's like flying terrifies me because I always hear about these things where like they lose
1080
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:14,040
the horizon. They don't know like what's up and what's down.
1081
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:15,160
It's too foggy to see.
1082
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,680
I don't like it.
1083
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:20,840
I mean, but I feel like now in modern aircraft,
1084
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,680
unless you're flying in a certain type of jet that
1085
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:26,280
it likes.
1086
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,640
They have navigation.
1087
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:30,600
Yeah.
1088
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:31,080
I don't know.
1089
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,040
These are recent.
1090
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,800
Okay. That's that was going to be my follow up question.
1091
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:37,000
Okay. So that makes sense.
1092
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:44,520
In one of these instances, pilot Dave Nunn was involved in a fatal plane crash.
1093
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:51,720
His plane vanished from radar near crater lake National Park and was not found until seven
1094
00:52:51,720 --> 00:52:52,840
years later.
1095
00:52:53,720 --> 00:52:58,200
90 miles north of crater lake near Huckleberry Mountain.
1096
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,320
Do you know Huckleberry Mountain?
1097
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:02,760
I mean, I know of it.
1098
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:03,480
Yeah.
1099
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:03,960
I never heard of it.
1100
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,240
It sounds so cute.
1101
00:53:05,240 --> 00:53:06,200
Adorable.
1102
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:11,160
His wife, Jean later wrote a book about her experience that night.
1103
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:18,360
She had randomly woken up at 9:30 pm with a chill and the feeling of someone touching her leg.
1104
00:53:19,240 --> 00:53:24,360
She says that she just knew that the plane had gone down and she'd lost her husband.
1105
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:30,040
So apparently it wasn't like, I don't think she got creepy vibe from the touch.
1106
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:34,120
I think it was more just like a, hey, like I'm here.
1107
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:35,320
I'm letting you know.
1108
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:35,880
Yeah.
1109
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,080
I am the messenger.
1110
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:42,760
And when she called the airport, they did confirm her worst fears.
1111
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,760
The plane fell off the radar at 9:20 pm.
1112
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,000
I was like, maybe it's just a dead zone, you know.
1113
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:58,120
Yeah, so so crazy that she woke up at the pretty much probably the exact time he was passing away.
1114
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,840
I just was sad.
1115
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:03,880
This is why I never sleep.
1116
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:08,120
Well, should we do some tarot?
1117
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:11,080
Some crater lake tarot?
1118
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:13,720
We'll figure out what deck we want to use.
1119
00:54:13,720 --> 00:54:15,880
That deck.
1120
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:17,080
Okay.
1121
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:22,600
Okay, we're at the tarot.
1122
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,520
I'm going to do some shuffling.
1123
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:25,480
Shuffling.
1124
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:30,360
Ooh.
1125
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,520
Oh yeah.
1126
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:33,320
That was crazy.
1127
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:38,680
So we had Taylyn put in some of her energy since she was here for the story.
1128
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,200
Yeah.
1129
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:41,560
Obviously, Caitlyn did.
1130
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:42,600
And I did it.
1131
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,400
That's what I'm doing.
1132
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,400
[typing]
1133
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:49,400
She's fucking showing off over here.
1134
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,920
She's like, I don't know what this is.
1135
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,360
Okay, like vibrated when my finger touched it.
1136
00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:57,800
Ooh.
1137
00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:00,360
So I thought like, okay, that's a pretty good sign, right?
1138
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:01,800
Yeah.
1139
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:02,760
Seems like it.
1140
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,800
It is the six of cups.
1141
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:06,840
Is what this looks like?
1142
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:07,320
Cups?
1143
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:08,680
Yeah.
1144
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:10,040
We're using my crow deck.
1145
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:15,000
It does look like snowy, like kind of like a snowy landscape with trees,
1146
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,760
but there's also sunflowers.
1147
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,440
But it does look snowy.
1148
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:20,840
Yeah, that's definitely snowy.
1149
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,160
But then there's sunflowers.
1150
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:23,720
Interesting.
1151
00:55:23,720 --> 00:55:25,080
Upright?
1152
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,360
Yes.
1153
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:26,680
Okay.
1154
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:34,040
Keywords are nostalgia, emotional renewal, happiness, and harmony.
1155
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:39,560
Well, that's great because I was really worried about the stories that were sad.
1156
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:40,040
Yeah.
1157
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:45,480
This joyful card sometimes shows two children in a garden.
1158
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:50,360
It represents reflecting on a time of innocence, contentment, and beauty.
1159
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:51,720
Okay.
1160
00:55:51,720 --> 00:55:53,080
Reflecting.
1161
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,120
The reflective surface of the lake.
1162
00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,120
Oh, it wasn't last on me.
1163
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:05,240
When it shows up, it indicates your revisiting pleasant memories and good times.
1164
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:11,960
Knowing that you have been happy in the past can enhance your ability to be happy in the future.
1165
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:17,640
Especially if you've undergone a painful experience recently.
1166
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:18,440
Oh.
1167
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,160
I don't know how I feel about that yet.
1168
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:22,520
So I'm going to keep going.
1169
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:27,000
I think it was telling us that we don't need a dwell on the sad stories of the lake.
1170
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:28,280
Yeah.
1171
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:33,400
I certainly don't need to know how a bone ended up in an empty pair of pants.
1172
00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:33,560
Yeah.
1173
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:35,960
Oh, nothing to see here.
1174
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:41,080
A card of emotional renewal, perhaps after a time of unhappiness.
1175
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:46,200
The six of cups represents a willingness to share joy with others.
1176
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:51,400
You eagerly give up yourself and receive the good things life offers.
1177
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,880
Through your actions, you express love and caring to people you know.
1178
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,520
And to the things you value.
1179
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:05,000
In a reading about money, this card suggests an upswing in your finances.
1180
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,920
Perhaps after a time of loss or limitation.
1181
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:10,040
Is this card about me?
1182
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:11,800
Right?
1183
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:19,000
This would be such a great card to draw right now for I feel like probably more than a few of us.
1184
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:24,120
Well, I was thinking it immediately reminded me of me because I like shared those pictures of like
1185
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:29,320
going to crater lake and my childhood and you said there was like something about two kids on it.
1186
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,080
And definitely nostalgia.
1187
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:32,520
Just nostalgia.
1188
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:32,920
Yeah.
1189
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:39,080
It can represent a joint venture in which you share expenses and profits with others.
1190
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:43,560
Sometimes it indicates a debt repaid.
1191
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:44,680
Oh, okay.
1192
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:45,880
I'd love to pay my debt.
1193
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:49,160
No, I'm taking it to the grave.
1194
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:51,080
Come at me, Sally.
1195
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:51,560
That's true.
1196
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:57,880
If the reading is about your job, the six upright shows renewed enthusiasm for your work.
1197
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:04,200
Perhaps a change offers you more creativity or an improved work environment.
1198
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:09,960
So it's definitely picking up energy from you guys.
1199
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:14,120
So I'll have to say about that.
1200
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:18,200
Developing new skills can benefit you now.
1201
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:24,680
In a reading about love, this card shows your overcoming problems in a relationship
1202
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,320
and renewing positive feelings for one another.
1203
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:33,960
Sometimes the six of cups can mean reconnecting with a past lover.
1204
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:40,920
I mean, I don't think they're going to be reconnecting any of the lovers that we talked about.
1205
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:47,480
Seems pretty tragic, like the unrequited love and then the woman who lost her husband and
1206
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:52,200
oh, and the other woman who's husband went down to the water, you know.
1207
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:53,160
Yeah.
1208
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,480
Well, that's sad.
1209
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:56,840
Maybe in the afterlife.
1210
00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:57,240
Maybe.
1211
00:58:57,880 --> 00:58:58,600
I hope so.
1212
00:58:58,600 --> 00:58:59,560
Yeah.
1213
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,040
What do you got in that little baby?
1214
00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:03,080
I don't know.
1215
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:04,840
Was there any extra excerpts?
1216
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,560
Yes.
1217
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:08,920
There is.
1218
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,880
Symbol of a kiss.
1219
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:20,760
The six of cups in the Rider Weight Smith deck shows a large cup resting on a pillar decorated with an X.
1220
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:27,720
X is the Norse rune for love and a symbol we use for a kiss.
1221
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:28,600
Aww.
1222
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:33,720
I mean, it could kind of just like represent that really strong connection with that woman who
1223
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,800
just like knew her husband had passed away.
1224
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:36,680
Yeah.
1225
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:38,440
That's a really good point.
1226
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,120
I didn't make that connection.
1227
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:44,760
I feel like I put too much of my energy in this, you guys.
1228
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,200
I don't know.
1229
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:47,160
Do you want to read this?
1230
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:48,200
It's pretty short.
1231
00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:48,760
Yeah.
1232
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:55,080
So the crow returns to the place of his youth in search of finding his inner fledgling.
1233
00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:55,880
Oh.
1234
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,280
Am I searching for my inner fledgling?
1235
00:59:58,280 --> 00:59:59,080
I don't know.
1236
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:06,360
He stands in a field of cups filling his heart with healing memories of a time that was less complicated.
1237
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:06,680
Yeah.
1238
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:07,880
All right.
1239
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:11,800
If, oh, okay, I just had this thought just now.
1240
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,800
It's like we got cups, which is water.
1241
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,080
Yeah.
1242
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,200
That was fitting.
1243
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:16,920
Yeah.
1244
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:17,560
Definitely.
1245
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:23,720
If you have been feeling overburdened with the day-to-day responsibilities, the six of cups brings
1246
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:30,840
a message to take a break and remember a moment in time when you felt free just to enjoy life.
1247
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:35,640
Whether it's a trip to your hometown or maybe your favorite vacation spot,
1248
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,720
it's time to recharge your spirit.
1249
01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,360
My spirit is recharged.
1250
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:46,680
We definitely talked a lot about the spirits of the lake and we should probably recharge your
1251
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:47,160
laptop.
1252
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,040
I mean, my laptop is charged.
1253
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,680
It's over there fully charged doing a thing.
1254
01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,720
We're leaving it alone because it's not happy with me right now.
1255
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:56,600
I wouldn't touch her.
1256
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:58,040
Don't touch it.
1257
01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:03,320
Well, should I point out some of the cute little things I put on the altar?
1258
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:03,800
Yeah.
1259
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,240
So it's kind of hard to see.
1260
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:10,520
Or, obviously, I got my little alien candle here.
1261
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:11,560
Hello.
1262
01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:17,560
Obviously, I put the woodblock out because the old man, hello.
1263
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:18,520
Clearly.
1264
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,200
What else?
1265
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,040
Oh, this is petrified wood.
1266
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:22,680
Ew.
1267
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:30,280
This is my little toothless dragon made of obsidian because of the serpent like dragon.
1268
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,200
I was like, well, I'll bring my...
1269
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,960
The symbolism is rich obsidian and that's like from volcanoes, right?
1270
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:37,000
Yeah, huh?
1271
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,360
I think this is like lava rock.
1272
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:41,800
It's pretty pointless.
1273
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:42,200
Yeah.
1274
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:42,520
You know?
1275
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:43,560
lava rock.
1276
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:48,760
Chris has actually a whole bracelet that I made out of lava rock.
1277
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:52,040
Those are where you put like the oils, the essential oils on them.
1278
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,840
Yeah, he was like, I don't want that.
1279
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,520
But he did want the lava rock.
1280
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:00,920
He just want to smell like a hippie.
1281
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,120
No.
1282
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:03,720
Turns out no.
1283
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:05,800
I tried.
1284
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:06,840
This just looks like a lake.
1285
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:07,640
I thought it was cool.
1286
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:08,520
It does.
1287
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,480
It reminds me of all of your photos from the lake.
1288
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:12,600
Yeah, that's beautiful.
1289
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:18,360
I'm glad that we talked about this pretty lake that has good memories for me at least.
1290
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:24,200
And even though we didn't talk about a lot of like really good things, I hope it made everyone
1291
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:25,400
else feel good.
1292
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:29,800
I think crater lake by and large for most people is a happy place.
1293
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:30,360
Yeah.
1294
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:31,880
It is very nostalgic.
1295
01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:35,000
I feel like it makes sense that it picked up on...
1296
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:41,960
I feel like maybe it's more of a general vibe than it is necessarily specific to any...
1297
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:47,800
I mean, there are elements that apply to a couple of the different stories that we talked about.
1298
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:51,480
But I feel like it's the energy of the lake overall.
1299
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:52,280
Yeah.
1300
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,280
And that is deep.
1301
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:54,920
So deep.
1302
01:02:54,920 --> 01:03:01,000
1949 feet deep.
1303
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:01,560
At least.
1304
01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:03,960
At least.
1305
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,240
Well, I think we should get out of here.
1306
01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:07,800
Yeah.
1307
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,120
I'm super hungry.
1308
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:10,680
Yeah.
1309
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:11,800
It's Thanksgiving week.
1310
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:13,800
Y'all and Thanksgiving is all about food.
1311
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:14,280
Yeah.
1312
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:17,080
So we talked about the other things.
1313
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:18,600
We don't need to talk about it again.
1314
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:19,080
I know.
1315
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:19,560
Yeah.
1316
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:20,200
No, thank you.
1317
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:21,560
Yeah.
1318
01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:22,360
No.
1319
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:23,000
No.
1320
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:24,280
We ate a salad.
1321
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:24,920
We did.
1322
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:26,120
And that was delicious.
1323
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:27,160
And...
1324
01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:28,440
Now we need to go have real food.
1325
01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:28,600
Yeah.
1326
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:29,800
Now we need some more food.
1327
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:30,280
Yeah.
1328
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:33,960
Garlic bread though.
1329
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:34,600
Yeah.
1330
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,880
Have a creepy ass day.
1331
01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:39,880
See you next Tuesday.
1332
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:40,920
See you next Tuesday.
1333
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,560
Or, you know, maybe we'll...
1334
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:47,560
I was going to say maybe we'll hop back on with our garlic bread boats.
1335
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:48,920
No.
1336
01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:50,280
Boats!
1337
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:51,640
Boats!
1338
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:53,960
You take garlic bread boats to the lake.
1339
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:55,320
Boats and hoes.
1340
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,120
That's how we should get to the island to Wizard Island.
1341
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,920
We should take our garlic bread boat and then we'll be safe.
1342
01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:02,440
I have bad news about that.
1343
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:03,800
They are very small.
1344
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:09,320
We'll build a bigger boat out of the garlic bread boats.
1345
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:09,800
Okay.
1346
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:11,320
Yeah, I think we can do this.
1347
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:13,240
We should go because it's going to take a minute.
1348
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,520
Okay, old man, we're coming for you and we're going to bring you
1349
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,280
an offering of garlic bread.
1350
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:19,720
I mean, who doesn't like that?
1351
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:23,560
Caitlyn.
1352
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:27,080
I can't to see the video where you go ���boats!"
1353
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:30,040
I'm on a boat!
1354
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,140
