Idiots on vacation.
More rock toppling vandals on the loose, this time in Oregon. Hope they get twice as much as those in Goblin Valley several months ago. Link here.

I live just a few miles from Cape Kiwanda and I was really po'd when I saw this video.
According to the young man who took the video and was not part of that group that destroyed Pedestal Rock they where destroying the rock because their friend fell off that rock a few weeks earlier and broke his ankle. They didn't want anyone else to get hurt.
The facts are there is a fence at the top of Cape Kiwanda telling people not to cross the fence because it is a dangerous area. There as been 6 people killed in the past 12 months by going over the fence and falling off the cliffs into the ocean. Oregon State Parks and Rec own the Cape but have only this summer placed a Park Ranger at the top to warn people of the dangers of crossing the fence but is not allowed to stop them from going over the fence.
Oregon State Parks and Rec and Oregon State Police are investigating this destruction. They should be able to find them with the reference they made to the guy who broke his ankle up there and had to be airlifted out by the Coast Guard.
I hope they all get jail time to think about their actions.
