I just got back from Turkey stopping in Austria on the way home in
Pfunds with Rob Hind who runs LiquidBliss rafting there. We paddled the
Sanna - the Inn was so low that Rob cancelled a family raft trip. I left
10 days a go.
Today I got this email from Rob.
Had more rain, the other side of Pfunds got destroyed, side creek went
off, 500 people evacuated, over 80 houses destroyed!! Nobody hurt!*
*
Inn went really high, so high they shut Innsbruck!!* Check the photo out
of the Rossana and Trissana confluence.* Bottom left is where we put on
the Sanna the other week (1.50 on the gauge)..... the gauge went up to
5m! All roads and bridges gone!!
*
Off surfing!
Later
Rob
Sorry no photo obviously for this newsgroup just to say it is a mess -
expect new rapids next season!
