The Ancient Volcano in Arizona; Mount Baldy & Its Glaciers

Описание: Only 2,800 years ago, Arizona had a glacier which existed on a towering stratovolcano. That volcano was known as Mount Baldy, which despite only being the second highest peak in the state has colder weather than that of Humphreys Peak. This video will discuss the glaciers which formed on its edifice, along with the long history of this now extinct stratovolcano which still reaches an elevation of 11,421 feet.
