Damn, I dont have any pictures unfortunatly but last winter (a gnarly winter at that up in Grass Valley) at Greenhorn riverbed I found a ford explorer that had been swallowed by the creek. the river at the time was a good 12-14 feet deep with vertical dropoffs into the raging water and some asshat thought they could cross it in a stock exploder. in less than a day the car was flipped and impaled by several large logs. when winter was over the car had been burried up to the roof in sand. hopefuly they learned a lesson that day about crossing rivers.
