Redoubt has simmered down some today with no new eruptions since yesterday evening. AVO’s field crew not only fixed the Hut webcam, but also spotted massive lahar deposits (see above) in the Drift River valley that traveled 35 kilometers downstream and have officials on local and national levels worried about the Drift River Oil Terminal. Funny, it sounds so familiar somehow? As usual, an ounce of planning and thought about locating an oil terminal at the foot of an active volcano would have prevented about 10 tons of problems now.

AVO will be posting some gas measurements and new info from their flights around the volcano earlier today, and I’ll update this post when that data arrives.

    Reminds of that commentary by the late George Carlin.

    How about those people who build their houses in Hawaii on the side of an active volcano and then wonder why there is lava in the living room.

    I’ve been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be a lot more useful than ever before.
