Wow, means that all happened yesterday after I left. There wasn't any water anywhere it wasn't supposed to be yesterday about 11am. There were a whole bunch of folks filling sandbags there though.

Man it’s cool to see the river running this hard! Hope I still feel the same way over the next few days/weeks. 😬

Never done it and anything I gave you would be a total WAG. Our typical float from the museum to geyser takes about 2 hours. All depends on river flow, type of craft and how much paddling you do and also your ability to go through or around the diversion dam. My WAG for normal flow conditions would be ~ 7 hours.

No guide needed and I’ll likely be working as days off are already spoken for. Feel free to stop in at the museum for any info. 😉

I wanna put eyeballs on that diversion dam passthru first, but that full seven hour float sounds rad.
I'd buy a big pink unicorn floaty. Aftwr four hours on water I'm not sure you be able to tell whether it was me or the pink unicorn.

I should probably clarify. When I say “float” we are still doing a lot of paddling. If all you’re doing is floating in a tube a 2 hour trip turns into…. well, you might want to pack a tent. 😁

I wonder how much longer Edge is going to exist as a company. I can't think they're gonna survive the bad publicity from this.
They build thousands and thousands of homes, and people will forget by June. Edge will be fine.
My sister is good friends with one of the homeowners. They started having issues with the house just over a year ago, only a handful of months after it was finished. Cracks in the floor and foundation showed up, the porch separated from the house. Lots of crazy stuff. They stuck it out until Oct or Nov of last year before it was condemned. I can’t even imagine what that was like cause those houses were $$$
I just don’t know why builders think they can just build anywhere but it’s obviously all motivated.

Her friends didn’t leave their stuff. They moved out long ago. They also stayed completely out of the media for the whole thing. For the neighbors that said they left their stuff in the house, I don’t think that was true. Maybe they’re trying to add “emotional damage” to a lawsuit or something 🤷🏼♂️. My mom was saying in one of the interviews they said their photo albums were still in the house so that fits the narrative lol

Alta topped the 900 inches of snow mark for the season- besting the previous record by over 12 feet!!

A coworker lives across the street from that house, posted the video to slack the night it happened. crazy looking at the aerials of it.
I can't believe that passed inspection without a retaining wall, but declare a housing crisis and allow residential zoning everywhere.

Edge builds some absolute trash. I used to work for one of several companies they used for their HVAC. It was pretty crazy seeing how poorly built their stuff is. Lots of houses less than a year old with massive foundation cracks, gaps in framing, etc.
