Hoodoo Mountain: yesterday's featured article

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoodoo_Mountain

Hoodoo to you, Hoodoo Mountain! OR should I call you by your other name, Hoodoo "I spout fire goo" VOLCANO.

Jesus I am so bored with this topic that I just started looking at reddit.  Who is doing the picking for the random article of the day?  Is it some guy who has a thing for geology?  Do rocks make him stalagmite?


Man I just went there.  You want to know somewhere you can't go to?

Hoodoo Mountain.

According to this Wikipedia post that I'm about to copy paste into here and then change the wording around to so it sounds like my nonsensical writing, Hoodoo Mountain is not accessible by road.  To get there, travelers must travel to Bob Quinn Lake which is about 37 miles (60 km) by the Stewart-Cassiar Highway.  Then promptly get your phone out of your pocket and call your helicopter friend to come pick you up so you can promptly reach the mountain.  

However, if your net worth is less than 1 million dollars, you can trek up the extreme mountainous terrain for free.  If you're even luckier, you can wrangle some residents from nearby Wrangell and take a boat trip up the Stikine and Iskut rivers.

On that boat trip you may see some animals such as the mountain goat and hory marmot.  Oh wait it's hoary marmot.  I said hory because of the phrase slut pig and the hoary marmots are known as whistle pigs.  And these whistle pigs are what Whistler, British Columbia is named for.  Whistler's original name was London Mountain, which woof, that's the worst naming since whatever the fuck Elon Muskets named his kid.  Speaking of weird names, the latin name for other inhabitant of Hoodoo Mountain is oreamnos americanus.  Now whenever I think about mountain goats, I'm just going to think about a 500 pound mountain goat sitting on a couch watching TLC while eating a box of double stuf oreos.

 I'm trying to look up more information about this mountain but my interest is starting to wane and my tummy is grumbling like a volcano.  But not like Hoodoo Volcano.  Even though according to this article "Like other volcanoes in the NCVP, Hoodoo Mountain is not monitored closely enough by the GSC to ascertain its activity level. The Canadian National Seismograph Network has been established to monitor earthquakes throughout Canada, but it is too far away to provide an accurate indication of activity under the mountain. The seismograph network may sense an increase in seismic activity if Hoodoo Mountain becomes highly restless, but this may only provide a warning for a large eruption; the system might detect activity only once the volcano has started erupting."

Our taxpayer money at work.  Speaking of taxes, this topic taxing me so I'm going to order myself some oreos.  Fucking mountain goat.
