3. It's alarming...

And correction, it was a 1,000year flood, closed Yellowstone for a week and they had to build a new road in a different place than the "old" one. I stood along a channel in town before the surge and I watched whole cottonwood trees, roots to canopy, floating down the channel and dunk under the bridge, the current was so strong.

It was something for 200+ miles along with several rivers that drain into the main river. But I found some really awesome rocks afterward.

I'd almost rather have a drought.
