Sad.

I’ve always wondered how many people on the Oregon trail etc were caught in such hail out on the open prairie. Coronado’s expedition out of New Mexico for the cities of gold was caught in a terrible hailstorm in Blanco Canyon, near today’s Lubbock Tx. Smashed a lot of their equipment, pottery, etc. Scattered their animals, etc.

I'd rather be caught in hail than a pyroclastic flow. Nature BIG. Humans, small.
