Man hearing the story unfold live on the radio with basically noting else to do and nowhere to go has been an experience. They were trying to anyone who could to bring them some propane to keep their generators running, i hope they got some.
Mule? Wow.
Mules are maybe the most useful freak of nature (sorta) for humans. They’re still used surprisingly widely - even the US military still keeps them on hand, for similar cases to this one: the terrain is so fucked that ground vehicles are going to have a hard time getting to certain areas.
I would have thought horses.
Mules are better over extremely rough terrain - they’re shorter and stockier. Horses evolved to run over open grasslands, plains, and rocky steppes.
That makes sense. Thanks.
when people are in desperate need, and they live in the mountains, and all the roads are washed out, you use what works
