Nature Documentary For Sleep | How Glacial Erosion CREATED Yosemite Valley and more

Drift off with some deliberately boring geography as we trace how glacial erosion carved Yosemite Valley into its iconic U shape, polished granite domes, and towering cliffs. In classic Sleepless Geographer style, we take it slow, calm, and detailed, focusing on the quiet power of ice, rock, and time.

You will learn how glaciers pluck and abrade bedrock, why hanging valleys and waterfalls form, and what makes a landscape look distinctly glaciated long after the ice is gone. If you like soothing geology, extreme environments, and Earth science that helps you relax, this is your next sleep friendly deep dive.
