Are there some 14,000 year old trees still around?    B)

Apparently you can go diving in Georgian Bay and find some Petrified
trees about 75 feet under water from back when, at the end of that
last ice age, the moving glaciers had left a huge 'dam' of rock and
soil behind for many decades and forests grew and then the dam broke
down and the water level came up about 75 feet.

The Natives have a story they tell about a giant Beaver who built
the dam and some oher critter, maybe a fox, that knocked it down.

And, technically we are overdue for a new ice age so this Global
Warming, no matter what you care to blame it on, might be a bit
of a life saver for us (literally)..
