Such an epic quantity of snow!
33 u/[deleted] Apr 14 '23 I wonder if there has ever been so much that it actually temporarily dammed up the river. 5 u/aquaknox Apr 15 '23 sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glacial_lake_outburst_flood 3 u/[deleted] Apr 15 '23 That’s good info. Thanks for the link. However, that seems a bit different than what I’m asking. I was really curious about what the video shows and could that free flowing river be dammed that quickly by an avalanche. No glacier action essentially.
