I wound up watching the Discovery Channel's thing about a super eruption of Yellowstone. My question is (besides do we need to kiss our collective asses goodbye) has your agency been paying attention to any info we haven't heard or is it just the usual media hype about something that is a long way off? Yellowstone is a long time off. Long Valley (Mammoth) is much sooner. Yellowstone will take out much of the country. Long Valley will only take out the West. No kidding. The town of Mammoth Lakes deliberately built an alternate escape road in case the main exit is blocked by lava or something. Occasionally the earthquake rate in Long Valley crescendos and property values temporarily drop - interested (and patient) skiers can sometimes find bargain property, and may even be able to close escrow before a lava bomb falls on their newly acquired property. (Up here at Truckee we only have to worry about floods and earthquakes. Over by the lake they also have to worry about tsunamis [I am absolutely not ****ting you - tsunamis on the lake!] From earthquake induced landslides - the evidence is there for previous events!) |
