Hunza debris flow video

You probably guessed that I am on holiday this week (normal service will be resumed at the weekend), but I thought I'd quickly post this new debris flow video from Hunza in Pakistan. The interesting but starts at about 1 minute 15 seconds:

  3. Looks like all the big boulders came down in front of the mud flow. I wouldn't have expected that.

  4. That was fantastic. It is one of the best debris flow films I have seen as it captures the floating of big rocks by debris flow not clear water flooding.

  5. Sept. 1 Anonymous, you are mistaken. A debris flow is defined as a flowing mix of debris and water. The water/debris ratio can vary widely, but there is always water present, this flow included.
