Orting WA, a town on the prairie, is the Indian meaning. A couple of years ago I made a video about this town and today I'm going back to see what has changed there. Sitting at the confluence of the Puyallup and Carbon Rivers Orting has a special relationship with Mt. Rainier. The increase in their population has driven the need to find an easier way to escape the valley floor in case of a lahar on the mountain. The Bridge for Kids and monthly practice drills are in their plan for a safe future. Come along with us while we drive around the town and see the sights.
