moving so quickly! I ran and climbed up a big tree
cause I felt so scared . The avalanche was 910
metres wide and 1.6 kilometres long, and it rushed
down the mountain at over 280 kilometres per hour! A
few minutes after the roaring stopped, I climbed down
from the tree and looked out over Yungay. I was
relieved to be alive but I couldn’t believe what I saw.
Snow and ice had completely covered the whole town!
It was a terrible experience.
