More on the recent Chamonix Rockfall
THANKS TO CHAMONIX INSIDER ... Yet another in a series of gargantuan rockfalls from the Dru happened this weekend when more than ten thousand cubic meters of rock fell causing tremors that were felt in the centre ville.
The first happened Saturday afternoon, the second on Sunday morning around 10:00 am, and the third on Sunday afternoon.
According to an article on LeDauphine.com, the series of three rockfalls was the biggest since 2005 when the west face released and took most of the Pilier Bonatti with it.
