The fact that natural disasters in the alpine room can actually accept enormous dimensions is always dramatically shown us. “In the Swiss canton of Valais, almost 90 percent of the evacuated village of Blatten from scree and ice mass was buried on May 28th. More than 130 houses were buried. […] The events took their outcome at the around 3800 meter high Nesthorn, above the now crashed birch glacier. […] The Lonza and the Dorfbach Gisentella also build up in front of the rubble cone, which is 50 to 200 meters thick, and the Lonza has now flooded a large part of the village. “(DerStandard.at, 29.5.2025). A disaster rarely comes alone.
