iain Posted February 20, 2003 Posted February 20, 2003 hard to say. maybe the outskirts near gresham but I think a blast to the south would not damage portland significantly. our water supply from bull run might be vulnerable. if all the ice on hood melted immediately, where would it go? I would guess hood, salmon and sandy river watersheds. rainier ice melt seems like much more of a threat to major metro areas, where they've found all those twisted stumps buried in the backyards of seattle's suburbia Quote

iain Posted February 20, 2003 Posted February 20, 2003 hmm, so less likely down the hood river. the white river definitely looks like it sees some action, and recently. Quote

Fejas Posted February 24, 2003 Posted February 24, 2003 You should have seen my bike... not to mention the 12 stiches that were in my lip from that crash... I think I slide about 5 ft directly on my face... By the way, I never said that I wouldn't get taken the fuck out, It is just a matter of time... but I still am not as disrespectful enough as to roll huge boulders down the mountain, causing who knows what kind of damage...

Bug Posted February 24, 2003 Posted February 24, 2003 There was a guy who hung out in JT for a couple winters who went by the name of Malcolm. He had a tendency to over state a bit but had a great story about how he lost his testicles. Apparently he was belaying a friend who dislodged a large block that descended in Malcom's general direction. After some futile manuevers, Malcolm found himself pinned against a wall by said large block. It took a few stitches to put him back together - more or less. He was frequently claiming he was willing to take large wingers so I steered ,er that's steared clear of him. One night around the lonely JT campfire, two half pretty females showed up. We were all mentally preparing our pickup lines when Malcolm beat us to the punch. It went something like "Don't worry about me. I lost both testicles in a climbing accident so all I want to do is look". They looked pretty nervous after that and were gone soon thereafter. Thanks Malcolm. Quote
