I predict no eruption happening at all through 2008 - 2009. Now I'll apologies if I'm wrong but we all know I'm right.


Obviously your kidding right? someone from Blackburn UK informing people from that region you know there will be no eruption, will make them all feel better I'm sure.

There is so much to take into consideration before even the best in their field could make that call, and all along we should have been talking to you, (yeah sarcasm) I will say though, people I know working for USGS, will not leave the public in the dark if they thought it was going to happen with any certainty.

Look for restricted access to the area, people with any kind of direct view will see Aircraft visually spotting near to the Mountain, as well as other nearby known geothermal hot spots, there must be people living in the area, if anyone knows of any, contact them, they would know if there was an increase in people skulking around.

A lot of lessons were learnt after ST Helens, it won't be like the movie dante's peak either, but there would be the equivalent of Pierce Brosnan around somewhere, even if it's just a stutter by the Mountain.

Anyone living near, I give you my word they will not leave anyone in danger, if something is starting then it could be years before an eruption, why panic and scare the living daylights out of everyone?

I'm sure there are other Geologists who will back me up, Geologists, Volcanologists, will not cover something like this up without an exeptional reason, also 2001 Flagstaff there was a melt on Humpfeys peaks in AZ, USGS already have an office right on the side of them, the reason is because of the activity, now we are almost 8 years on and the mountain is under constant observation, it's still there however.

So please don't worry too much, I can ask around, a good indicator will be if anyone has had their Christmas cancelled, if I find anything out I will let you know.

It is too early to panic, and worry is good for the soul sometimes, hurts nobody to be vigilant, and interested.

lol, take a look at all the other threads on here about Mt baker, I think the general consensuses based on the recent activity points to nothing being wrong whatsoever, just a bunch of fear mongers.

Thanks everyone who is nearby who has responded.

The Information is on this Thread:

Impending Earthquake/Volcanic Activity/California Region

And as anyone who reads through the thread can see I pulled all the Hydrological, Seismic, and USGS data for the region and could find nothing.

I have posted a lot of it on the thread, over the last week.

I was quite harsh in Debunking the poster, However due to his continued insistance and his strong statements that something is happening, he was told by a Volcanologist who is there, and that it could be observed happening, Now, a

Bald patch


The only way for us to see if this is so is by the responses posted so far, and further ATS collaboration.

So has anyone besides those already posted in, been able to get info from someone who flies the area and can see it from Above?

I am looking at the Satellite Photo's but I am very busy today only 5 mins on ATS...

Any further witness accounts?

And as stated please see the link posted for the whole story, Data and information.

Kind regards,

Elf

Thanks Darthorious,
Well that's interesting in itself, Maybe its a new server/service that has not started up yet from an old one.

Though being ATS it seems strange that the page that states the USGS guys who work there, and links to it from 2006 and it seems like the right sort of Web Address for such a server www.mtbakervo.com... seems correct,

Unplugged on Purpose?

Anyhow further info needed then.

Regardless of if it is active or an imminent eruption is present or not. I personally appreciate the fact that you would be so kind as to offer a warning or heads up call. You did not state it was factual and said it was third party info, so I consider what you have done as a global community service.


Darryl thank you,

This is what ATS is about, but we need to be grounded and honest as well, which I am trying to do. There is enough Fear and scaremongering in the world generally, but things do happen as well, so a balance is needed eh.
Kind words much appreciated.

Elf.

I remember a few years ago when I was living in Anchroage, Mt. Spurr (about 70 miles from Anchorage) started acting up. There was a huge melt hole at the crater site, seismic activity increased, etc.
Here is the link for photos on that:
www.avo.alaska.edu...

Geologists were all over the mountain and sending out warnings to the city of Anchorage. Nothing happened. In fact, if I remember correctly, shortly thereafter, Mt. Augustine erupted which is much farther south. You never know with these mountains if and precisely when anything is going to happen. I thought for sure Mt. Spurr was going to erupt because of all the activity, but I was wrong. Good post anyway, it will be interesting to see what comes out of this. Here is a great site for Volcano info, past and present in Alaska if anyone is interested:

Yes that's the thread I link to in the Opening Post.

Thanks but when I load the page I just get a blank one with the menu. I have full flash etc to... is it me or do you get a view? Can you post a Pic link if you do?

reply to post by clay2 baraka


I thought that too, but if Lava has been building for some time it may not be so, this year and 2002 were quite active across a range of depths for the volcano, see the graph below.

reply to post by deepred


Lucky you looks gorgeous!
Do you know anyone who has been there close to the mountain in the last couple of weeks, especially climbed it? are the springs looking normal or extrabusy?

reply to post by asmall89


Great link thanks missed that.
The data and server are not ordered properly yet, cant find anything for recent Thermal, or Melt activity... will keep looking later though.

reply to post by EricS


What side can you see then my friend? N/S/E/W?

Thanks hey why not join and add some photo's?
Do you look at it often then and it seems ok?

reply to post by soma_pills


Any news on the Forums into this sort of thing then?

reply to post by liquidsmoke206

lol well well the Seahawks eh, Liquid do you know anyone who goes there or lives much closer?

reply to post by StargateSG7


Hey Im soo sorry to Wonderful Vancouver, and any Canadian's... Just I live the other side of the Pond so don't know the area that well.
Thanks for the info.

Would love the Photo's or link to one, so you see the North West side then?

reply to post by verylowfrequency


Soo close great for info, and sounds great, hope the snow isn't to bad...

So what face side can you see my friend?

reply to post by bpg131313


Great would love to have such a view, What side of the top can you see then?

Please let us know.

So We know that the North side has no melt , and if the other members and posters can get back with their respective views of Mt Baker hopefully we can debunk/ clear this up ASAP.

Would like to get a 360 degree veiw report on its activity from the above posters and see what the real deal is eh guys?

Well done way to go ATS.

reply to post by Cyprex


Good point its not always EQ's and the Poster claimed it was not proceeded by any large seismic activity, just that its hotter at the peak and one side is "Bald"

So anyone who is local and notices any strange or extreme Spring or such like activity, that is always a good sign of anything.

Ideally we need an Aerial view and I cant find one, So I have just emailed the Aerial Cameraman who works with the USGS as in my previous post.

Thanks Guys, please be specific on the Side of the mountain you can see.

Below is the last 10 yrs Seismic activity and depth at Mt Baker, maybe just maybe something building, and I think there has been one more quake since this was released.





Kind Regards,

Elf

No problem. As I said before, it's definitely worth keeping an eye on regardless. I think most of us living in the Cascades are generally keeping an eye on USGS reports and the news here is pretty quick to report any seismic activity on any of the volcanoes we have.
