I once went up to the Klamouth River area to watch some hippy-fest/protest thing.
Caught a ride with an ornery, 80 year old ex-iron worker who was high as a kite on pain meds from a back surgery a couple days before. He was excited about his new 454c.i. recently installed in his 80's van(headers leaked like a seive).
Needless to say, driving through the twisty 2-laners with five foot wide trees on either side was "interesting".

We got up there, and there was an entire town covered by a mud slide. Apparently, Maxxim had clear-cut the hills above the town.........
Saw a buried tricycle next to the peak of a roof.

Then there was the usual "right to peacefully assemble" stand-off with hippys on one side, and riot cops on the other.
They came to some agreement after a few hours, and just then the clouds cleared and a huge quadruple rainbow appeared over the trees. Amazing.
