There was an avalanche around 1pm yesterday afternoon just past downtown Juneau. It is a known avalanche zone but this was a pretty bad one.
We drove out to Douglas Island today and got some photographs. There was a large section of the road affected and it went all the way down to the ocean. I really feel for the people that live on the other side of that area. I would imagine they will have to take boats to get around until they get the road cleared...
No trees here anymore!
In this picture you can see how deep it is over the road. It had to have some amazing force behind it!

Thank you for posting such a fascinating look at your environment. Discovered your blog at random while having morning coffee here in Atlanta, and seeing Alaska through your eyes was a welcome treat. The beauty is truly awesome! All the best, Robert
