anyone heard if the 100k gallon spill affects the SCRA. I was going down there next weekend, but not if it's gonna be all poopy.

I don't think that spill effects that area, I think that spill is flowing west, into the elk river

Wow ---- I've never heard of 100,000 gallons of raw sewage with a silver lining before.

Silver lining?
What did they do, polish the turds?

Sewage spilled onto the ground and into Juanita Creek early Sunday when a steel wall at Monteagle’s primary treatment basin No. 1, built in 1986, collapsed.

Can anybody guess what the worker that saw this happen said?

It did flow downhill. Pelham is at the base of the mountain. There's a slight chance I'll be in the South Cumberland area this weekend, currahee. I'll let ya know how it smells.

Hey Currahee. Did you bring your new pooch? You guys ever make it this way for an overnighter, yell at me?

That sucks big time because the Elk river was great for canoeing/yaking last time there (06) and there was big trout fishing.
Had a great 14 mile water trek with Stew, Supertroll, RichDude, and firebeaver. Nasty now I bet, and sadly.

Hey BBill knox
We're heading out Saturday morning. Haven't decided where. Prolly Savage Gulf. (North Rim,Connector,Stagecoach, and South Rim trails)
