You can still see what is left of this huge home that was buried in the massive landslide off the basalt cliffs of the CRG. It’s near the same area that is home to hundreds of thousands of stands of Larch pine trees (Larch Mountain area).

Today, the massive landslide still moves and has nearly consumed that house; which was half visible after that cataclysmic event, but now you can barely see the roof of that house, at all, but just barely.

That was the year of the massive ice storm: all of the river’s experienced massive, never-seen-before flooding from the deep freeze of weeks long episode of lingering ice (not snow) on everything. I lived out in a tiny town in the gorge and we were trapped without electricity for weeks (the front door of my home and my car was buried /encased in ice. When it finally warmed up to thaw the ice, all the rivers here overflowed massively.

I would place this natural hazardous event right up there next to Mt St Helens volcano exploding in the 1980s. This 1996 event was nearly a decade later.
