Thanks, Obama.

SNS Outfitter & Guides

Hunters on a private ranch in the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming stumbled upon an incredible and mysterious scene: a massive crack in the earth that in some places resembles a mini Grand Canyon.

SNS Outfitter & Guides first reported the anomaly on its Facebook page on Friday, saying it “appeared in the last two weeks on a ranch we hunt in the Bighorn Mountains. Everyone here is calling it ‘the gash.’ It’s a really incredible sight.”

With no earthquakes reported in the area, locals were stunned and at a loss to explain the shift of soil and rocks that left the gaping crack estimated to be 750 yards long by 50 yards wide.

The opening is said to be located 10 miles south of Tensleep, Wyoming, in the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains.

The way things are going....I hope it is Cbutulu the Great coming to destroy Earth

 
Huge Crack In The Earth Opens Up In The Foothills Of The Bighorn Mountains [PHOTO GALLERY]

Over the weekend a number of reports came in about a crack in the earth showing up in the southern foothills of the Big Horn Mountains. A friend of ours, Randy Becker was in the area and captured the above images of the collapse and shifting of the soil and rock in the area. Estimates by some put the area at 750 yards long by 50 yards wide.

Another post on Facebook by SNS outfitters stated an opinion by a local engineer,

An engineer from Riverton, WY came out to shed a little light on this giant crack in the earth. Apparently, a wet spring lubricated across a cap rock. Then, a small spring on either side caused the bottom to slide out. He estimated 15 to 20 million yards of movement.

Not all that unusual.

That's not "mysterious" in the slightest. It's an excellent example of a process known as "mass wasting".

“An engineer from Riverton, WY came out to shed a little light on this giant crack in the earth. Apparently, a wet spring lubricated across a cap rock. Then, a small spring on either side caused the bottom to slide out. [The engineer] estimated 15 to 20 million yards of movement. By range finder, an estimate is 750 yards long and about 50 yards wide.”
 
The Earth's crust moves, nothing is permanent. I'm sure some enviro-Nazis will make up some term to blame humans.

Obviously seismic. Let's call it Bush's Fault!

Nope. Not seismic in the least. Read the link I provided if you would like to learn about the process.

It is necessarily seismic. Any earth movement of scale is.

So, Bush's Fault then? If Obama can rename a mountain in Alaska, he can certainly name something like this. It would be a poignant part of his legacy.

Wrong. Seismic activity specifically deals with actions along the seismic plates of the crust of the Earth. This had nothing to do with that. This was a normal action of gravity, combined with a weak strata, acted upon by water, which coupled with the strata being beyond the angle of repose resulted in a "slump" or "disambiguation" if you prefer, which are elements of mass wasting which can indeed be triggered by seismic events, though this one wasn't, but which are in and of themselves not seismic in nature.

Psst...seismic: the definition of seismic

When you take a step and set your foot down, you generate a seismic wave.

Eat a big enough bean burrito, and you can do it intestinally.

The real cool part is the erosion. All of the planets' surface area has been recycled this way...several times....and yes, Los Angeles will eventually be a suburb of San Francisco, right before Nevada gets beach front property with a scenic view of the Yosemite island chain.

Of course, I could be wrong and giant flying monkeys will emerge from the crevasse and destroy humanity.

Shhhhhh... From your link....A vibration IS an earthquake. Earthquakes are caused by crustal plates relieving stress through EARTHQUAKES..... Shhhh....

adjective

pertaining to, of the nature of, or caused by an earthquake or vibrationof the earth, whether due to natural or artificial causes.

Earth movement through artificial or natural causes. If you fart loud enough, you are seismic. Just take care that I am not in the camping tent when you do the experiment...

I provided you with a link as well. If you can't be bothered to click on it:

An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the perceptible shaking of the surface of the Earth, which can be violent enough to destroy major buildings and kill thousands of people.

Where do earthquakes originate?

I'll wait.
