#MarshallFire Amazing, yet dystopian photo from Good Samaratin Hospital, Louisville, Colorado. Uncredited photo from Reddit (would be nice to get the photographer's name, this is Pulitzer worthy) reddit.com/r/boulder/comm…
From Reddit: photographer is Melanie Lueras, a surgical tech at Good Samaritan hospital (taken on an iPhone 12).
I should have spelled Samaritan correctly in the original post, before the 48,560+ folks viewed that post. #typo

#MarshallFire#Superior#Colorado Structure fire reported at 1119 W Enclave Cir. Quite a few other structures fires I have not posted, too many to track.
Given what we know now, this most certainly is the signature from the oil spill (suspected when I posted an unprocessed image on Saturday, but confirmed).
This scene from Terminator 2 in the last few years has had me thinking about how you should be preparing kids for an uncertain future (not the blowing things up and weapons, but disaster preparedness and survival skills). "Here's how to perfect your golf game" isn't gonna do it.
Stuff they should know (all Boy Scout skills, btw): 1. Basic first aid. 2. Properly using a pocket knife and hatchet 3. How to build and start a fire (safely) 4. How to cook your own meals in the wilderness over an open fire
5. Basic navigation NOT using a phone, using a map and compass and general navigation skills when you don't have either of those. Reading a map, especially.
Since people are asking, how to geolocate a #hiker given only a general location and a grainy photo of their legs hanging off a cliff (thread) 1/x
1. Identify the general area (if available) of where the hiker was known to be. In this case, the location was near Mt. Waterman (a well known area in the Angeles Crest, popular with hikers). 2/x
2. If someone is lost along the Angeles Crest (if you keep tabs on the posts of @SEBLASD they post regularly on rescues), you find they are either NORTH of the Angeles Crest Highway or SOUTH of the Angeles Crest Freeway. How do we figure out which one here? 3/x
