Blatten – According to estimates, the rubble on the spilled mountain village of Blatten in Switzerland is sometimes 100 meters high. This was reported by the geologist of the canton of Valais, Raphael Mayoraz, after specialists have landed directly on the Schuttberg for the first time to check the consistency. The material is fixed, but that could change, he told the Swiss newspaper The Nouvelliste. Clearing work has so far been too dangerous because the rubble could collapse anytime.
