Still following this story for updates. Very concerning, although it is in a sparsely populated area. Also watching earthquake activity in the area.

You have to watch out for those rattlesnakes. They’ll steal anything that’s not nailed down.

“The seismograph is about the size of a coffee can and it is useless to anyone who has stolen it..”

Unless you’re worried about Graboids.

Yes, we live not too far away and had been following that story several weeks ago. They showed the gap that was opening at that time and it sounded like it was a matter of days before the hillside was to let go. We thought with all this rain it was long gone. Surprised to hear that they’re still monitoring it.

Some of the items missing were two 60W solar panels, and one Guralp 6TD seismograph worth approximately $12,000.00. The seismograph is about the size of a coffee can and it is useless to anyone who has stolen it.


If it’s worth $12,000, I would check ebay.

Instead of stealing it they should have given it a swift kick and sent the alarm bells ringing.

"...useless to anyone who has stolen it."

I could think of a couple of good uses for it.

The hillside is right outside of Union Gap and Yakima. Hardly sparsely populated. This was the work of crackheads...

Some species just steal as second nature.

So, we paid $12,000 for it, but it’s worthless. Figures.
I catch trespassers with a pair of $40 trail cameras. Maybe they should have spent $12,040.

You could put that in your car to measure how smooth your ride is.
