| Description: | Shaky - light in contrast imagery Torrential rains and melting mountain snows swell the Snoqualmie River which breaks from its course, as tons of lumber jam into the creeks and pile up a death-dealing caravan. An avalanche of mud and boulders sweeps everything before it. Homes, trees, and live-stock are brushed from its path as the relentless force moves onward. The entire valley is stricken by the visitation of horror and desolation. | |
