I do wonder why these 500 or 1000 year events keep happening rather often?
Seems like some new labels are needed .
I was about 1 mile north of Davis Creek Park on Memorial Day 1983 when an avalanche went into a mountain lake and a huge wave of water, trees and mud came down very quickly. I had been on my last day at work at a food service building at Bower's Mansion in Washoe Valley, NV. Davis Creek was on just over a ridge to the South. I had to go all around in the Valley to get South as the mud had covered the highway going South as well as pushed a school bus to the other side of the highway and had been entrenched in mud.
I think the kids who had come in the bus were fortunately not in the path of the mudslide but were off to a side.
