Yikes...I've got 1 river to cross that's only 10 minutes from work, so if I can cross it then I'm golden. If not it's a 21 mile hike, which reminds me I need to put my walking shoes back in my go bag.
Our office is moving in two months, to an even more susceptible location. And it puts a second river between me and home. I can only hope, if and when the big one hits, that it's not when I'm at work
I've honestly looked at collapsible boats as a possible solution. Keep it at or near work. That, or maybe that new bridge will survive and be passable for pedestrians (it's supposed to be). Either way, I'm easily 2-3 days from home on foot.
Pro Tip, figure out how to hot wire a dump truck and use that for a get home rig!
For @etrain16, any thing ya need! Work on your double clutching and your good to go! LOLYou teaching classes?
! What were the people thinking when they sited and constructed that concrete monstrosity (size wise)! It's concrete stacked to the sky, perched on the side of a vertical cliff, hanging over the city! No one alive today has ever seen the effects (or the affects) of a 6' horizontal shift and a 9' vertical drop in land mass (see the Oregon Resilience Plan study commissioned by the Governor several years ago), accompanied by 3-5 minutes of violent shaking and no one in their right mind would want to but....that mass of concrete is headed for the river with no time for anyone to escape when that subduction zone breaks loose. I pity all those patients, medical personnel, and everyone between there and the river below them. As serious a problem as we are going to have here in Coquille when it hits, the three years we are facing without any infrastructure pales in comparison to what Portland is going to experience.
I'm set.
