What To Do In The Event Of A Mudslide | AdvantaClean

Saw the last episode of the CBS show Fire Country and found it a bit much with respect to what would happen in reality but it was very entertaining.

Was watching a preview of the final show this Season of Fire Country which involves a mudslide. Probably among other things, though.

I had been working at the Bower's Mansion snack bar near the pool in Washoe Valley that Memorial Day when this mudslide hit Davis Creek Park about a mile north of us.

I could see the huge mound of mud and debris on the hill with the material covering the road.
