I wonder what kind of trees they are. I betcha they’re trying to grow them as we speak.
That makes the Nobel Committee dumb as a bag of rocks.
Operatives from the Al Gore Indoctrination Center nearest you will be knocking on your door shortly.
With apologies to all bags of rocks, yes.
Well, obviously NOT a historic minimum, if the ice wasnt there back then to have trees growing!
No, it is indeed a historic minimum - it's the HISTORY that is short.
You’re right. Some rocks are clever.
GOT Fire WOOD?
This find proves that these northern climes were once warm enough to grow forests, even before the presence of man and machines, thus giving the lie to anthropomorphic climate change.
When the next ice age hits, the climatologists will be just as surprised as the woolly mammoths were.
When things were warmer 7,000 years ago, there was not a city of 2,000,000 less than 40 miles from the glacier. Nor did Canada’s largest port (Vancouver) exist then. Nor did the trans-Canada highway exist then. Nor were there various industrial developments (including forestry). All of these things contribute to local warming and forms of pollution (e.g., dust) that can contribute to a glacier melting. These local factors would have to be eliminated before it could be claimed that the globe is as warm now as it was 7,000 years ago, but “scientists†on the Global Warming gravy train are incredibly lazy. The fact that the Medieval Warm Period did not cause such an extensive retreat of the glacier all but proves that the cause is not “Global Warming”.
Thirty years ago “scientists” had brilliant ideas like covering snow with crude oil to combat ... GLOBAL COOLING!!
And we are supposed to trust them, once again, with even more alarmist GLOBAL WARMING!!

At last. Thank you.
There are other potential variables that have to be considered, or dismissed. Polar shift, magnetic shift, ocean currents, and tectonics, perhaps geothermal, and probably not plate movement.
“I wonder what kind of trees they are.”
Well, in northern colorado in the Rockies there are old fossilized palm trees (millions of years old). I imagine these uncovered trees were more typical of what you might find in North America today - an evergreen of some sort I would imagine.
What if it’s a tree the likes of which we have never seen before. Now THAT would be interesting.
Johannes Koch of The CollegeTyping School in Ohio found the fresh-looking, intact tree stumps beside retreating glaciers in Garibaldi Provincial Park, about 40 miles north of Vancouver, British Columbia.
Seven thousand years ago, the Atlantean Civilization caused Global Warming, despite their use of Cold Fusion.
Interestingly, the trees, Quercum Gorus grew without branches. The clusters of leaves grew on boles, or wrinkled craters, and each Spring, new puckered boles erupted, giving the trunks the appearance of the underside of octopus tentacles.
While written language was not in extensive use in that part of the world, racial and verbal memory did keep the idea alive, as when we describe a Global Warming Pimp as, "An Asshole, with Oak Leaf Cluster".
Reversal of global warming didn’t do those trees any good, did it?
Some of it...
