UM Condit Dam Removal Time Lapse Reservoir 2.wmv

[ThingsTerrestrial]

It's all part of U.N. Agenda 21 to de-industrialize the U.S.

The fight to Defend Rural America now shifts to four dams on the Klamath River. Watch THE FIGHT TO SAVE SISKIYOU COUNTY for first-hand accounts of the impact of dam removal.

Thanks for the video!! Truly an awesome spectacle, went up there last week and it really was mind blowing. Sorry to see the comments got all douched up. "America"

[BrothersFreedive]

Wow!  to the mudslides that's so amazing!

[GuzmanJulianna]

Condit dam was something that had to go and it is really cool footage plus know one really liked to be a northwestern lake do to the fact that it had an odor to it so yea

[joeybare]

This would be more awesome if it didn't have 1 dollar FPS.

[tommybass40]

All that to save some fish?

The environmental freaks in this country would prefer the majority of Americans to go back to using candles for light, firewood for cooking and heating, and riding horses while they themselves continue to jet across the country, get picked up in SUV's, use their laptops 24/7, and live in their ivory towers with full electricity.

We are so fucked up in this country it's not even funny.

[reddibacon]

@tommybass40 You are such a dumbass. You know nothing. This hurts nobody and will correct itself within a few years. The fact that people of your intelligence level can operate a computer amazes me. We can't just let species go extinct due to our own greed. You seriously think it's OK to tell my kids "well there used to be this really cool fish called a shark but we killed them all." You think that shits ok? And no get real we aren't going back to the 1800's. Grow a brain please.

[tommybass40]

@reddibacon

Sure, whatever you say asshole. I'd like to know what you tell your kids when they can't find a job because idiots like you made sure the fish and birds and trees were happy and chased away all those "bad" factories from the US to China, who, btw, have no problem polluting the entire earth and affecting climate change across the globe.

[reddibacon]

@tommybass40 I never said that I supported outsourcing. You are just making black and white assumptions now. At what point in my above paragraph did I say that I was upset with factories? That is an environmental issue, which I don't have ton of knowledge about. I am a conversationalist , not an environmentalist. Of course there is probably no difference between the two in your simple hick mind.

"ANYTHING PROMOTING BIODIVERSITY=BAD" That is how you morons think.

[reddibacon]

@tommybass40 Before you say it, I bet you think I'm a vegetarian too? And you probably think I support PETA right? And I dance around in the forest hugging trees right? Nope. None of those things so let the generalizations flow. Call me a hippie or whatever, and I may be. But I'm a hippie that will kick your godamm ass if I see you messing with mother nature when you don't belong.

Hey! Who pulled the plug out?!

[jfstarr]

Unfortunately, hydro-electric is one of the renewable sources of electricity that this country will have to move to as we begin to feel the effects of Peak Oil. Hopefully, new fish-friendly designs will be coming online.

[SilverRock5]

@jfstarr We do have fish friendly damns such as all the damns on the Columbia River which produce 1/3 of all hydro power in the US. The Condit damn was about 100 years old and the reason was for a paper mill which hasn't been there in a long time so it was kinda of pointless in the past years. I do agree we need to move all energy over to the 4 infinite sources hydro,solar,wind, and geothermal.

[surebeatstv]

One dam down... thousands more to go!

[baddoght]

@surebeatstv If you could get rid of all of the dams in the country but have one nuclear power plant in your back yard, whats your choice? Dams are the best bang for the buck & GREEN. Then again, there are folks in this country that would have us live in huts if live at all.

[timetrader57]

excellent! 

[DirtEmind]

Thank you for taking this footage and sharing. As a geotech grad student, seeing this many slides in such a short time... wish I could have been there for it.

[spdwebdotnet]

I agree, this is some awesome footage. What is that structure at the bottom of the lake? Is that like remnants of an old cofferdam or something during construction of the original dam? It looked to be under about 15' of sediment.

[ec1019]

@spdwebdotnet yep, that was the old cofferdam

[cember01]

Cool! Just what I was looking for. Not every day you see a 100 yr old lake drain in 1 hour. Thanks for the post
