THE DAY THE MOUNTAIN FELL
This entry was posted on 2/12/2006 1:29 AM and is filed under uncategorized.
On our first show, I touched upon the landslide that buried the town of Frank in Alberta, Canada.
Turtle Mountain, which was avoided by the local Native American tribes and was called "the mountain that walks". In 1903, it did in fact "walk," and buried the town of Frank along with 76 of its residents, whose screams can still be heard from the observation deck in what is now a national park.
