Ten Amazing Facts about The Appalachian Mountains

Hey there my name is Bill Marion and this is  a nose for life a little over four years ago I   made a top 10 facts video about the appalachian  mountains now that video isn't terrible but   our channels come a long way since October 12,  2017 and oh my how the world has changed since   then but the appalachian mountains they haven't  changed. Well not enough to notice so why am I   making another facts video about the appalachian  mountains well for two reasons first the comment   section of that other video is amazing and that  so many people contributed additional facts and   i've wanted to make another video addressing  the information we received the most the second   reason for this video is that i've learned so  much about the appalachian mountain since 2017.   see our channel is sort of a travel nature  channel and carolyn and i have made about   200 videos in the appalachian mountains so  i want to share what i've learned with you   and clarify some of the ankle deep information  in that last appalachian facts video but this   video isn't all about facts there is some  breathtaking scenery in this video that we've   captured all over the appalachian mountain  chain so be sure to watch until the very end   also keep in mind that these are  debatable facts so this isn't your   normal run-of-the-mill generic facts video  so go ahead and pack a lunch because we're   going exploring make sure you leave a comment and  don't forget i've left links in the description   so get ready to have your mind blown here are 10  debatable facts about the appalachian mountains number ten how do you pronounce appalachian it depends on who you ask okay quick story  when i made that other video back in 2017   i pronounced appalachian appalachian  and boy did i get lit up in the comments   people were demanding that  i pronounce it the right way well i've spent most of my life in the appalachian  mountain region and i was really embarrassed that   according to many people in the comments i  was saying it wrong i even made a silly but   heartfelt apology video but i kept asking myself  where did i come up with appalachia well it turns   out despite all the comments correcting me and  despite the fact that i made an apology video   i wasn't really wrong there's an ongoing  regional debate as to how one should pronounce   appalachian strictly speaking if you're from the  southern region of the appalachian mountains you   pronounce it just like that appalachian and this  pronunciation is common throughout much of the   mountain chain however there are other mountain  regions in which appalachian is more common still there are some other mountain folk who  pronounce it appalachian and that's not all   one website claims that there are at least  six different ways to pronounce appalachian   you know one would think that this should be  a live and let live kind of thing but trust me   it's not like everything else these  days it's a pretty heated debate   i'm stuck pronouncing it appalachian  because i've already retrained my brain.   How do you pronounce appalachia?  Let us know in the comments number nine what's in a name speaking of names one of the facts in the  last video i made was about the naming of   the appalachian mountains that hernando de soto  or a surviving member of his expedition named   the mountains after an indigenous american tribe  the apalachees the problem is that the home of   the apalachee tribe during the time of de soto was  in florida nowhere near the appalachian mountains   and everyone knows florida only has one  mountain am i right though variations of   the story about desoto naming the appalachian  mountains are repeated on numerous websites   and youtube videos there's no evidence to  support the claim that desoto or anyone else   on his expedition designated the mountains  of the east appalachian the first time the   mountain range was designated appalachian  on a map was back in 1564 by an artist who   traveled with a french huguenot expedition  by the name of Jacques le Moyne de Morgues. i wish to apologize to the  good people of france and all   french-speaking people everywhere  for the way i butchered that name anyway saying that there's no proof that desoto  or anyone else on desoto's expedition named the   appalachian mountains for whatever reason is  one of those but actually kind of statements   that make people think there's a deeper  hidden truth that's only now being revealed   but actually it's not that big of a deal let me  explain so let's agree lemoine's 500 year old map   is the first time we see appalachian designated  on a map that still doesn't explain why lemoyne   used that name he had to get it from somewhere the  huguenot expedition was after desoto's expedition   so it's likely that lemoyne used appalachian  because it had already been designated during   desoto's expedition there was also something in  the comment section of the facts video i made   back in 2017 about apalachee jewelry found in  the appalachian mountains therefore during the   16th century the Appalachees operated in the  mountains of northern georgia and that's why   the name appalachian ends up on a map but  this idea has never picked up any steam   across disciplines even if it is true one argument  against this idea is that the Appalachees were a   pretty big deal where we now call florida if they  were operating in the appalachian mountains we'd   have a lot more evidence than just a few pieces  of jewelry it's likely the appalachian jewelry   made its way into the mountains through trade  but honestly i don't know and you don't really   know either because it's all speculation here's  the real fact neither de soto or lemoine's map   named the appalachian mountain chain you'll  see what i'm talking about in the next fact number eight appalachian or allegheny regardless  as to who named the appalachian mountains or when   the appalachian mountains were designated on a  map the mountains of the east weren't officially   called the appalachians for another 300 years  there were several competing names the mountains   to the north were called the alleghenies and in  the south they were called the appalachians but   if you were referring to the entire mountain  chain from north to south they were called   both the alleghenies or the appalachians and  it was perfectly okay to use both in the same   conversation so the two names were interchangeable  because why i have one name when you can have two   early on allegheny was picking up steam as the  one named to name them all for example in 1810   john norton used allegheny mountains while  referring to the mountain chain as far   south as tennessee and georgia and by the  middle of the 19th century allegheny was   the front runner as it was strongly favored  over appalachian and then this guy happened geographer arnold geo geo published an article  in 1861 called on the appalachian mountain   system now here's what's funny he refers to  all of these mountains as the appalachians   but on the map he prepared he still referred  to the mountains as the allegheny mountains   so maybe he couldn't make up his mind either  but geo's article was a pretty big hit because   he was extremely informative so everyone  was like this guy knows what he's talking   about maybe we should listen to him and do  you know who did listen to geo john wesley   powell who also studied and wrote about the  mountains of the east he had an even better   idea powell called the mountains on this side of  the great valley the appalachian mountain ranges   and he called the mountains on this side  of the great valley the allegheny plateaus   and honestly that really makes a lot of sense for  more reasons than i can get into right now but no   that's not what happened nevertheless this is  when appalachian began winning the name war and   even then it wasn't like someone declared  all of these mountains the appalachians   decades passed before these mountains were  consistently designated the appalachian mountains number seven where are the appalachian mountains  this seems like a straightforward question right   wrong you'll find all kinds of answers to this  question definitions provided by authoritative   sources vary on the precise boundaries of the  appalachians yes you heard me right authoritative   sources say different things a lot of it has  to do with the parameters of the discussion   are we having a geological discussion or are we  talking about hiking the appalachian trail if   you're planning to hike the appalachian trail it  doesn't do you a lot of good for someone to say   well actually the scottish highlands were  once a part of the appalachian mountains   more on that later one's existing world view  plays a role too as well as where one is educated   not how much education but where colleges and  universities are not necessarily in agreement   when it comes to many different aspects of the  appalachian mountains some universities are   still teaching early 20th century stereotypes of  the people who lived and live in the appalachian   mountains and these stereotypes have long since  been debunked one thing is for sure the boundaries   of the appalachian mountains have always been  confusing and controversial and listen i love   geology you can't spend as much time in these  mountains as we do without learning a lot of   geology but when it comes to designating the  boundaries of the appalachian mountains i'm   not sure geologists are helping the public's  understanding as much as they're muddying the   waters historically speaking the appalachian  mountains are here or the mountain chain that   runs north and south close to the east coast of  the united states but the appalachian mountains   are also in canada but the adirondack mountains  are not included in the appalachian mountain chain   because geologically the adirondacks are a part of  the great plateau of the canadian shield that is   unless you have an atlas like this or countless  other maps or visit one of hundreds of websites   which don't even include the name adirondacks  rather the adirondacks are included with the   appalachian mountain chain now here and there  a website will include the adirondacks with a   note saying that technically they're not a part  of the appalachian mountains for most people this   is no big deal but it kinda is not necessarily  with the adirondacks sadly i don't know much   about the adirondacks i want to visit there soon  but when it comes to expanding or changing the   boundaries well there are political applications  don't worry we're not going there in this video   anyway here are the real facts so far  just so you'll understand how muddy the   water is the origins of the name appalachian are  mysterious we really don't know how it happened   it's pure speculation and it always has been  and second despite the fact that people living   in different regions of the appalachian mountain  chain pronounce appalachian differently everyone   thinks their way is right and they will tell you  all about it and finally the boundaries of the   appalachian mountain chain are somewhat  debatable and just wait it gets better number six appalachian mountains in arkansas  missouri and oklahoma okay let's pretend   you're from the appalachian mountains and  for your birthday you want to go skydiving   let's also pretend that you've been skydiving  many times and just to prove your skydiving   skills you want to be blindfolded okay this  seems to defeat the purpose of skydiving but   just go with it so i can make my point for some  strange cosmic twilight zone kind of reason your   plane is wildly off course by almost 800 miles  but the pilot thinks you're right over the drop   zone with the blindfold on you jump the parachute  opens and you land safely you immediately realize   you didn't land at the designated drop zone you  know you're in for a long hike but that's no big   deal after all you know the mountain ranges in the  appalachian mountains like the back of your hand   naturally you don't have cell service because  you're in the middle of the mountains and you're   used to that after hiking to a small farmhouse  you find someone that might be able to help and   as the conversation begins you've exchanged  similar salutations and common colloquialisms   like a feared meaning afraid as in i'm a feared i  missed the drop zone and aim or getting ready to   do something as in the farmer telling you that he  don't mind helping you at all he was just aiming   to eat and fur as in the farmer telling you you  can wait here for a while and eat dinner with us   and you say yes because culturally you understand  that he's supposed to offer and it's rude to say   no and you feel at home right when you walk  in the door because you smell fried chicken   okra corn beans cornbread and sitting on the table  is a pitcher of iced tea and there's no artificial   sweetener anywhere to be found because this is a  gallon of wholesome wonderful southern sweet tea   that might have as much as four cups of sugar  of course you feel at home this is the culture   of the appalachian mountains right but right  as you're walking in the door you notice the   farmer's license plate and that's when you realize  you're not in the appalachian mountains or are you the washington mountains in arkansas and oklahoma  are a lot like the appalachian mountains in almost   every possible way aside the fact that they  might be connected geologically the washidas   are generally grouped with the arkansas river  valley an area between the ozark and washida   mountains the river valley is characterized by  flat lowlands covered in fertile farmland and   lakes with occasional high peaks sound familiar  here's how similar these mountain chains are   since this segment began you've been  seeing video from the alleghenies in   the appalachian mountains and even some video  from the blue ridge mountains and if you live   in or near the ozarks or washida  mountains tell the truth you had no idea the ozark plateau or the ozark mountains and  the washida mountains formed the u.s interior   highlands a small and often overlooked mountainous  region between the appalachian and rocky mountains   geologically the connection between the  appalachian ozarks and washida mountains   go back to the supercontinent pangea i'll say  more about pangaea and how the supercontinent   theory may connect mountain ranges all over  the world in the next chapter but there's   more to this connection than what's underneath  the surface culturally these two regions are   extremely similar as well as people in the  19th century from the appalachian mountains   known as hillman migrated to these interior  mountains bringing their culture as well hey let me take just a brief second to welcome  you to the channel we're so grateful when   you watch any of our videos i would really  appreciate it if you subscribe and click the   bell for notifications we read and respond  to every comment so please leave a comment   again thanks for watching now  let's get back to the mountains number five scottish appalachian mountains and if defining the boundaries of the appalachian  mountain chain isn't already confusing when   i made that last video back in 2017 there were  several viewers who believed that i should have   included the scottish highlands and even the  atlas mountains of africa let me explain many   scientists believe that a little over 300 million  years ago there was one super continent called   pangaea and during this period the scottish  highlands appalachian mountains and the atlas   mountains were all one enormous mountain  chain with peaks higher than the himalayas   maybe that's why so many people are wearing kilts  while hiking in the appalachian mountains so   i see a connection but just because these three  mountain chains have some history together and   occasionally share fashion trends doesn't mean  they share anything in common today now this   dude is debatable because what is the best way  to designate the boundaries of any region do   we use topography geology or do we use the  shared culture of the people who live there   in other words do we look at what's on top or  underneath the surface or do the people of that   region define the boundaries for themselves but  here's why the scottish highlands in the atlas   mountains cannot be included in the appalachian  mountain chain first the scottish highlands and   the atlas mountains were named long before  europeans explored the appalachian mountains   and before anyone designated the name appalachian  on a map based on an indigenous american tribe   that didn't even live in the appalachian mountains  second these three mountain chains may share some   geology but the topography and the cultures are  strikingly different and finally did you miss the   part where these mountain chains are separated by  thousands of miles and a very deep dangerous ocean so no even though i'm very grateful for all the  comments on that video and i'm hoping you'll   comment in this video the scottish highlands  and the atlas mountains should not be included   in the appalachian mountain chain that is unless  you're specifically talking about what the earth   may have looked like 300 million years ago but  that was then and this is now and i know what   you're going to say but bill culturally there  is a huge connection considering that the scots   helped settle the appalachian mountains well  that's true the scots were a part of the great   westward migration into the appalachian mountains  in the early 19th century but the scots migrated   all over the u.s and their descendants continued  to migrate contributing bits and pieces of their   culture everywhere they landed and so did the  irish and so did the german and the list goes   on and on but what's so often overlooked is how  much the indigenous americans contributed to   the appalachian culture not to mention the  fact that all of these influences together   didn't exactly merge into one cohesive  culture there's a lot of nuance in the   appalachian mountains but hey it's perfectly  fine if you want to wear a kilt while hiking number four lost in a mountain chain of mountain  ranges okay buckle your seat belts we're going   for a long drive the appalachian mountains are  made of many mountain ranges but when it comes   to drawing lines between these ranges the lines  get kind of blurry for example many sources   explain that the blue ridge mountains run from  pennsylvania to north georgia but the mountain   ranges in pennsylvania and west virginia are  referred to as the allegheny mountains and they   are very different than the blue ridge mountains  in virginia and it's only in georgia and virginia   that the blue ridge mountains are commonly  referred to as the blue ridge mountains unless   you're on the west side of virginia in that case  at least on a map it's the allegheny mountains or   the alleghenys but sometimes they're still called  the blue ridge mountains by well a lot of people   tourist websites and even locals will call these  mountains the blue ridge mountains listen i live   right between these two mountain ranges and trust  me it really depends on who you ask officially the   blue ridge mountains are a larger subset of the  appalachian mountains in case you didn't know   they're called the blue ridge mountains because  they appear to have a blue hue and mountain ranges   like the great smoky mountains are a subset of  the blue ridge mountains which are again a part   of the appalachian mountains officially this makes  the blue ridge mountains the parent chain of the   great smoky mountain range but even though no one  calls the great smoky mountains the blue ridge   mountains you can access the southern terminus  of the blue ridge parkway in great smoky mountain   national park so you might be asking yourself why  is it called blue ridge parkway and not something   like smoky mountain parkway better yet why isn't  the blue ridge parkway called the appalachian   parkway maybe it's because mile marker 1 of the  blue ridge parkway is in virginia where the blue   ridge mountains are actually called the blue ridge  mountains honestly there's a very good reason it's   called the blue ridge parkway we've made well  over 100 videos all over the blue ridge parkway   these videos are a lot of fun and they provide a  lot of information you can check out the playlist   by clicking the tab at the top corner of your  screen now but i'll provide a link at the end   of the video anyway the appalachian mountains in  georgia are commonly referred to as the blue ridge   mountains there's even a blue ridge georgia okay  a little side note to develop tourism in helen   georgia they came up with this bavarian theme  back in the late 60s and early 70s i never really   bought into it because being anywhere in georgia  during the summer is like asking for a heat stroke   i lived in germany and there's no place in germany  that's as hot as anywhere in georgia still helen's   bavarian alpine theme has been a pretty big  success by the way we have a georgia playlist too   these videos are from our first year making videos  and as you may imagine they're pretty cringe still   these videos provide some interesting information  so here's another tab when you're traveling in   the appalachian mountains from one mountain  range to the next sometimes you won't even   know you've crossed into another mountain range  because the scenery doesn't really change at all   so the lines on the map are just that lines  on a map but sometimes there are transition   zones that are entirely unique like where the  alleghenies meet the cumberlands the topography   in this region has characteristics of both ranges  and it doesn't get a lot of tourism either so it's   not as crowded during peak seasons moving on the  cumberland mountains are sometimes referred to as   the cumberlands just as the allegheny mountains  are often called the alleghenies and by the way   there are a couple of ways to spell allegheny  imagine that but the cumberland mountains are   also referred to as the cumberland plateau  and yes the allegheny mountains are also   often referred to as the allegheny plateau the  alleghenies also include the pocono and endless   mountain ranges of pennsylvania but they don't  look anything like the allegheny mountains in   west virginia and they're not really connected to  the rest of the alleghenies not really and if you   do some googling on the cumberland mountains  many authoritative sources will include   regions also belonging to the allegheny mountains  and i'm not talking about overlapping areas   it's as if the cumberland mountain range ignores  the alleghenies altogether and that isn't nice   north carolina is home to the highest peaks in the  appalachian mountains or maybe it isn't more on   this later in the video anyway in north carolina  there are several mountain ranges belonging to   the appalachian mountain chain the great balsam  mountains the black mountains the bald mountains   plot blossom mountains great craggy mountains and  nancyhala mountains are all in north carolina okay   ready for this also in north carolina there are  some mountains that don't belong to any local   mountain range and they're pretty significant  mountains in this case they're just called the   blue ridge mountains sometimes state lines and  county lines are also mountain range boundaries   but not always north carolina and tennessee  share the unicoi and great smoky mountains   which must make for some dreadful paperwork so  let me explain how it works if you're visiting   the black mountains in north carolina the parent  mountain chain is the blue ridge mountains and the   blue ridge mountains are part of the greater  appalachian mountain chain too easy right i   left out the fact that sometimes they change the  names and the boundaries of these mountain ranges   yes they change the names but seriously people get  triggered if you don't call a mountain range what   they think it should be called they'll tell you  about it too even when they're absolutely wrong   for instance while recording an intro to a video  i stated that i was in the allegheny mountains   of west virginia a viewer wrote those aren't  mountains those are plateaus and this person   is correct sort of these are plateaus in fact the  highest plateau east of the mississippi is in west   virginia but on the map this region of elevated  land is referred to as the allegheny mountains   but on some maps the allegheny front and yes  on other maps the allegheny plateau i wasn't   providing a geographical description of this  location i was providing my location on a map and   the map i was using i bought in a store in west  virginia because in case you've never been to west   virginia it's an amazing state and we love it but  there's no cell service there but honestly i love   all comments and really appreciate them in fact  leave a comment right now and call these amazing   mountains whatever you want to call them just as  long as you appreciate their spectacular beauty number three highest appalachian peaks  i thought this would be a no-brainer   but one of the facts in my last 10 fact  video about the appalachian mountains   was about mount mitchell now it's an absolute  fact that mount mitchell is the highest peak   in the appalachian mountains but there were  several wonderful viewers with good intentions   who commented in no uncertain terms that i was  absolutely wrong that the highest peaks were   in the white mountains located in new hampshire  but mountain washington isn't even the highest   peak in the appalachian mountains not only is  mount mitchell taller than mount washington but   there are many peaks in the southern appalachian  mountains that are taller than mount washington   including clement's dome in tennessee i thought  that maybe some of these sincere viewers were   trying to say that there might be a higher  concentration of tall peaks in the white   mountains i doubted that too but i wanted to make  sure and well no these wonderful kind-hearted   viewers who took the time to leave a comment are  simply misinformed the highest concentration of   the tallest mountains in the appalachian mountain  chain is in north carolina in the southern region   of the appalachian mountain chain there are 53  peaks in the southern appalachian mountain chain   that are over 6 000 feet in elevation together  these peaks have a name the southern sixers   i've hiked many of these giant mountains even  in east tennessee there are at least 10 peaks   over 6 000 feet and between north carolina and  tennessee combined there are over 200 mountains   over 5 000 feet in elevation i'm not sure  how anyone can arrive at the conclusion that   the tallest mountains in the appalachian  chain would be in the northern division okay seriously when i saw this i almost  second guessed my sanity listen i've been   making videos for over five years i get things  wrong it happens but britannica is supposed to   be more trusted than wikipedia so i kind  of flipped out i'm almost embarrassed to   tell you that i spent over eight hours yes  that's right over eight hours making sure   i'm not well crazy and no i'm not crazy at least  not about this so i did something i've never done   before i submitted a correction that sounded  something like this this information is correct   actually the highest deletions of the appalachian  mountain chain are in the southern appalachian   north region in north carolina alone there are  three peaks they're over 900 meters these things   are called the southern sixers not mentioned  is the tallest of these peaks and the tallest   mountain in the appalachian chain there are 181  peaks over 500 meters tennessee has 10 60 and 900   years and dozens of peaks exceeding 500 meters  parts of southern virginia also included in the   southern appalachian mountain region is also home  to mountains exceeding 500 meters when it comes   to elevation mount washington and the surrounding  mountains are barely worth mentioning however the   northern division of the avalanche mountain is  extremely unique and quite fascinating not to   mention beautiful for reasons that have little  to do with their relation i've never attempted   to correct information in any article before  however the article is so humorously wrong that   i feel morally obligated to help most of the  details are correct it's the broad statement   highest elevations in the appalachians are  in the north division that's ours the rest   and yes i sent that i'll let you know  in a few minutes how that worked out number two the trail i know you've probably  heard all about the appalachian trail   especially if you've been watching this channel  for the past few years you probably already   know it's over 2200 miles long making it the  longest hiking only foot path in the world   the at follows the backbone of the appalachian  mountains taking you through 14 different states   but you might not know that if you hype the entire  at the elevation gain and loss is the equivalent   of hiking mount everest 16 times the at  is extremely popular and it's shared by   all generations while less than 22 thousand  people have ever completed a through hike   on the appalachian trail less than 22 000 people  have completed a through hike or hiking all 2200   miles which can take about six months millions  of people hiked the at annually considering its   popularity it's hard to believe that the entirety  of the trail is maintained by volunteers organized   into 31 district maintenance clubs volunteers  do everything from maintaining existing trails   and painting blazes to excavation along  the trail they even build new shelters   the at is so popular and it's been such a  success that during the summer months it   gets kind of crowded this success has led to  other volunteer-led multi-state trail projects   in other parts of the appalachian mountain chain  for example there's the mountain to sea trail or   mst it stretches for almost 1200 miles from the  great smoky mountains to the outer banks volunteer   projects like this take time the mst was proposed  back in 1977 and it's still not quite finished the cumberland trail in tennessee or the ct  begins at cumberland gap state park on the   border of kentucky and tennessee and it extends  for 210 miles to signal mountain tennessee now   this isn't a hiking channel but we've made a  lot of videos hiking on various trails in the   appalachian mountains so check this out i seldom  recommend hiking websites because 99 of the time   they really let me down but if you're interested  in a complete website that has a lot of tools for   hiking check out all trails and no this is not  a paid advertisement like most of youtube they   don't even know this channel exists but seriously  this is a great website links in the description number one the truth about appalachian facts  including this video this is new river and it   flows through west virginia virginia and north  carolina just like appalachian nobody knows who   named new river but the name stuck even though  new river isn't new at all it's one of five oldest   rivers in the world it might even be the oldest  you may have noticed that the debatable facts   in this video have a theme names and designated  boundaries to be fair controversies surrounding   the names and boundaries of any location one may  find on any map can be controversial strongly   debated scandalous and sometimes it can lead  to war when you look at a map it's easy to   understand why these mountain ranges are lumped  up together into one mountain chain from above   that's what it looks like these mountains of the  east are ancient but as passionate as people are   about the name appalachian the name hasn't been  associated with all this mountain range very long   just over 100 years in recent years the great  valley is now commonly referred to as the great   appalachian valley you know people spend their  lives becoming experts at something and that   includes those sneaky boundary changing pangaea  loving geologist speaking of geologists in 1596 a   cartographer named abraham artelius is believed to  be the first to suggest the continents were once   joined and later separated but no one really paid  much attention centuries later in 1912 a scientist   named alfred vegener noticed that the continents  of the earth seemed to fit together like a jigsaw   puzzle veganer declared that the continents move  over geologic time relative to each other and   appear to have drifted across the ocean bed he  called this movement continental displacement   experts at the time called veganer delirious a  drunk and a peddler of germanic pseudoscience   oh yeah veganer wasn't a geologist so he didn't  fit in the club he died in 1930 and was largely   forgotten don't let websites fool you as they  gloss over the fact that even 40 years ago   pangaea the supercontinent was at best considered  french science maybe slightly more credible than   ancient aliens but beginning in the 1950s  evidence began piling up quietly the idea   picked up steam and now modern geology has shown  that pangaea did actually exist they even used   the word actually every website related to the  topic says the same thing it's a fact and it   will remain a fact unless new discoveries are made  and evidence begins pointing a different direction   but as one of the five oldest rivers in the  world maybe even the oldest of the five it   depends on who you ask it's a fact that new  river isn't affected by the latest research   opinion or ideas it flows through the  shadows of these mountains regardless   as to what they're called unchanged  by the ironic name it's been given so i bet that was the longest facts  video you've ever watched on youtube   did you enjoy this video i really hope  so and i'd like for you to tell me what   you think about it in the comments we love  the mountains so take some time and check   out our playlist i want to thank you so  much for watching this video make sure   you're subscribed and that you've clicked the  bell for notifications my name is bill marion   and this is a nose for life hey if you like  this video you'll enjoy one of these videos too you
