Well seeing this is GT.

STEED · 10-01-15, 08:29 AM

Time to get the dynamite out.

^ http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/alaska-state-troopers/videos/preventative-avalanche/ I was thinkin' this too; My brother-in-law uses one (105 millimeter howitzer) at a ski resort near Park City, Utah...a little safer at this stage than getting on the hill in such a precarious position. We cannot Affjord needless Norwegian casualties!

@ Sailor Steve the soundtrack is cool and it's your backyard! Iv'e skied right where this was filmed: What a variation on 'beating your sword into a plowshare!"

Get those crazy Scots to head butt it down..."See you jimmy"

You guys are joking of course but i'm curious as to why they don't just deliberately trigger the event and get it over with. People have been evacuated and a no go zone established but what happens if it waits a few months before coming down. It doesn't seem very efficient to maintain the blockade for who knows how long.

Hey I wasn't joking!

A 105 MM howitzer or some smart air ordinance (bunker buster) to trigger it would be useful.

MOAB would be kool: OPERATION: Mjolnir fer sure.... a JDAM at least

Any News?

Do I have time to make a cup of coffee?

Eichhörnchen · 10-08-15, 03:17 PM

STEED · 10-09-15, 09:27 AM

It seems I will be making and drinking lots of coffee before this bloody mountain gives way.

Jeff-Groves · 10-09-15, 09:49 PM

I do demolition for a living.
Fly me over and cover expenses and I'll drop that clump of rock like a bad habit!
