Day 57: Imagine finding this as you were leaving for work. This is the sight which greeted our SCA Centennial Ambassador Ian this morning. Yes, it's his car, the most damaged of three which were attacked by a Douglas fir overnight. Whether snapped by a freak gust of wind or by the weight of torrential rain caught in its needles, the tree left behind a four-foot tall shattered snag and blocked one leg of the loop through housing at Tahoma Woods. When I arrived on the scene several hours after it was discovered, crews were preparing to section the tree for removal, and Ian was waiting patiently for a call from his insurance adjuster. His tour of duty at Mount Rainier National Park is certainly proving to be unforgettable!
