Trees in north Russia

[johana]

I would like to know wether anybody knows of trees that lay down over a uge area all in the same direction.

Did they perhaps did carbon dating on them, because of the cold it could have happened long ago.

Thanks johana.

There was the Tunguska blast that knocked down trees a hundred years ago. Is that what you're asking about?

Storms can lie down trees in the same direction. See HERE an article about the 1987 storm.

IIRC the trees in the petrified forest in California are also parallel to each other in south-west direction. In the petrified forest of Lesvos they are still upright.

Along with volcano blast that blow down hundreds of trees. Ex:mount st helen. possible that a now dormant volcano erupted long ago and the devastation is left behind.
