Another flow disaster in Nepal, just one catchment to the west of the Trishuli. This one is also caused by a landslide, but with a different mechanism - the landslide dammed the river and an outburst flood followed. Landslide was at 4:22 local time, and the largest flood pulse started around 6 am.

Please enjoy a small moment of solitude along the High Peaks Trail this afternoon in Pinnacles National Park. The rhyolitic rocks are the eroded remains of a 22Ma composite volcano complex whose other half is down south 185 miles or so in Lancaster, CA thanks to San Andreas Fault.
