i heard mammoth is gunna melt cuz its going to erupt and melt all the glacier away..is this true?

cool everybody
 
I heard Canada is going to have a communist revolution right after I buy Whistler tomorrow for $3.56 and and some stock options.

I know! Is phony major. Lubchenko learn nothing. Nothing!

within the next 6 months mammoth will have a moderate to severe eruption and will place them mountain unskiable for a good 2 or 3 years...so ski up this year

-let people do what they want, ski how you want, make whoever you want your role model its your choice

-i love to ski, so should you, its fun, try it sometime

Yeah St Helens and Hood and Mammoth are all going 2 blow up and earthquakes will fallow soon after all over Cali and its going to finally go under fucking water with all of the pricks that live in that state muah hahahahahahah

jk

 
if mammoth blow like it did before, Half the US will be severely fucked over. they found rocks down in south america from the last eruption

If Mammoth does blow the mountain it self isn't gonna be spewing lava. The valley floor will be though. If any of you fockers have been there and seen the 'scenic route' that connects to hwy 395, well it used to be called the 'escape route'. But that name scared LA tourons so they changed it. The escape route is there because if Mammoth goes it's gonna go just about at the junction of 395 and Mammoth Rd. The escape route goes around the town to enable people to still get to 395 and get the fuck out of Mammoth. The town will be fucked, but the mountain's gonna be fine.

 
plus the escape route is convenietly pointed towards tahoe so mammoth riders will only miss about 3 and a half hours of skiing in the instance of an erruption

 
east coasters dream:

mammoth blows its top

ash/dust gets caught in jet stream

condenses over green mountains as cloud seed

snow pukes on mountains of vermont, new hampshire, maine, and quebec

clausen pukes on himself after he finds himself homeless

cj pukes on whistler after pounding 151 in disgust after being out-snowed by the east for the first time ever

everybody on the east coast pukes... sick!!!

yeah that would be like...totally rightous dudes...

You forgetting one thing though... steep mountains... not hills...

they may not be nearly as high in elevation, but believe me, they're real mountains

whens the eruption due and can someone say lava gap?

that would be the shit except the fact that lava is so hot that it would melt the snow immediately

If Mammoth were to erupt, it would'nt have a lava flow. Western US volcanoes are caldera type eruptions associted with high viscosity magma that erupts in a pyroclastic flow of ash and other debris. You can outrun lava, but pyroclastic flow travels at up to 600 mph. If people were in the town, they would all be fucked and would be entombed like the people of Pompeii. The mountain would probobly blow its lid, too and be completely warped.

Not to worry though, they monitor seismic activity pretty damn well in CA and it's not going to happen. Cascade range volcanoes like Baker or Hood are a different story though...

Yay for geology!

 
i heard you guys are all full of shit nothing is going to happen to mammoth

Not wearing poles is alot like getting a blowjob from a guy...It feels good until you look down and realize you're gay. - skimack
 
its not a galcier its a semi-dormant volcano, due to erupt in the next 6 months...berkely predicted it, the predicted 3 earthquakes with in a month and 2 pacific volcanoe eruptions with in a week, so ski up

From the US geological suvey, Oct 14th

Mammoth Mountain, a young volcano on the rim of Long Valley Caldera, was built by numerous eruptions between 220,000 and 50,000 years ago. Volcanoes in the Mono-Inyo Craters volcanic chain, which extends from just south of Mammoth Mountain to the north shore of Mono Lake, have erupted often over the past 40,000 years. During the last 5,000 years, an eruption has broken out somewhere along this chain every 250 to 700 years. The Inyo Craters and nearby lava domes were formed by a series of small to moderate eruptions 550 to 600 years ago, and the most recent eruptions along the volcanic chain took place about 250 years ago at Paoha Island in Mono Lake.

The pattern of volcanic activity over the past 5,000 years suggests that the next eruption in the Long Valley area will most likely happen somewhere along the Mono-Inyo volcanic chain. However, the probability of such an eruption occurring in any given year is less than 1%. This is comparable to the annual chance of a magnitude 8 earthquake (like the Great 1906 San Francisco Earthquake) along the San Andreas Fault in coastal California or of an eruption from one of the more active Cascade Range volcanoes in the Pacific Northwest, such as Mount Rainier.

As long as increased volcanic unrest (including earthquake swarms, ground deformation, and CO2 gas emissions) continues in the Long Valley area, the chances of an eruption occurring in the near future will remain somewhat increased. However, evidence from large volcanic areas and calderas worldwide shows that unrest, such as the current activity in eastern California, can persist for decades or even centuries without leading to an eruption. Nevertheless, recent eruptions at Rabaul Caldera in Papua New Guinea (1994) and the Izu volcanic complex in Japan (1989) following short periods of unrest emphasize the need to closely monitor restless calderas.

probobly more info than you needed, but hey....

Im with Killy, that would be sick for vermont to have like a 300 inch season, I know it doesnt seem like alot, but for east coast wow, last year we got like a measley 152 :(

taht would be sick

and mt washington would spring a glacier, or killington would if it blew enough snow

im going to mammoth in 2 weeks.i hope it doesn't kill me..that would suck

15 years old... you cant even take the girl anywhere... you have to get laid in the back of your... bicycle? or bring your parents along... or get a ride... hey mommy, i need a ride over to my bitch's house so i can fuck her.

id be pretty stoked if mammoth lakes got melted... that town sucks.

Wow, so many volcanologists on this site.

once upon a time a volcano erupted in alaska. ash from that volcano covered the streets of chicago. wicked, eh?

 
You're all dumb. Mammoth won't be blowing anytime soon.

hey i live in CALiFORnia and i don't think that mammoth is gonna blow! i thought it was just another mountain like tahoe where i ski

mammoth won't blow up, i haven't felt an earth quake yet according to u people who predict the 4 earthquake shit, and mammoth doesn't have a glacier
