Hey,

Larry Kafader and Chris Ravert are from Oroville, any word on these guys? If you don't know, 188,000 folks had to evacuate last night.

I wonder if any cans buried near the surface were washed out because of the release of water?

Actually I've heard tell of some good cans (think Pacific Brewing) that were found below the dam back in the day.

The river was always there, and cans have been found along it below the dam and beyond, but I bet some good stuff
got flooded with some of the small communities, homesteads, etc. when the lake was filled, just like Lake Shasta.
