The Other Side Of The River

I took this picture from the other side of the Naches River Valley.

I have been in a car many times following on the right side of the river on the road over the Chinook Pass. But, there was a major landslide that covered the road and necessitated a detour to the other side of the river.

I felt sorry for the farmers over there, who were largely by-passed by the world. A snug hide-away valley completely unknown to regular travellers until the slide. Now it is the main highway.

Here is the video - normal until 120 seconds into the film - taken from a helicopter when it first occurred.

Let's see if that works.
