BRIEFLY
Outhouse damsel rescued from pungent predicament
By NATALIE ST. JOHN
EO Media Group
KLIPSAN — When a
woman dropped her cell
phone in a Klipsan Beach
outhouse in June, she ended
up down in the dumps. In
deep doo-doo.
In July, the Chinook
Observer, a sister paper of the
East Oregonian, caught wind
of a remarkable incident that
had local Washington State
Parks employees talking.
Like many other cell-phone
owners, an unnamed woman
reportedly forgot to remove
her phone from her pocket
while answering nature’s
call. The phone fell into the
State Parks-managed pit
toilet on the Klipsan beach
approach.
Unlike others who have
found themselves “up pit
creek” so to speak, this
woman was not prepared to
give up on the fetid phone.
According to a Parks staffer
who spoke off the record,
the woman took the putrid
plunge, and then found
herself unable to return to
GOOGLE
This is where it all went down: A woman dropped her
cell phone into the sewage chamber below this Klipsan
Beach outhouse — and then climbed in after it.
dry land without assistance.
She allegedly had to shout
for a passersby to help extri-
cate her from her pungent
predicament.
A cry for help
“I have spoken to a park
ranger that works in Cape
Disappointment State Park,
and he has informed me that
there was an incident similar
to the one you described,”
Records Manager Brian
Thrasher wrote in response
to an Observer request for
the incident report.
According to Thrasher,
rangers never formally
documented the incident,
because it had been resolved
by the time they arrived.
However, parks employees
did speak briefly with the
befouled beachgoer, and the
arguably heroic man who
came to her aid.
“Essentially
what
happened was a passerby
heard a woman yelling for
help from an outhouse and
forced the door open to
assist her,” Thrasher said.
“The original call to the
park was regarding damage
to the door of the outhouse,
which is why rangers
responded. By the time the
rangers arrived, the woman
had been assisted out of the
outhouse.” Damage to the
door was “minor, and the
door was still functional,”
Thrasher said.
The straight poop
At the Observer’s request,
Thrasher
double-checked
with rangers, who confirmed
that the Tale of the Outhouse
Ordeal was more than just
hot water.
“It was reported to Parks
staff that the woman was in
the vault of the outhouse,”
Thrasher said. “While her
identity was not collected,
she was advised to seek
medical attention.”
The
dropping-doused
damsel-in-distress and her
rescuer left shortly after
rangers arrived.
Thrasher and the rangers
did not know what became of
the dung-damaged device.
