Description
A avalanche of tons of mud, trees, and other debris chopped off a massive mountainside four miles east of Oso, Washington on March, 14, 2014. The slide buried more than 40 buildings, blocked the North Fork of the Stillaguamish River causing severe flooding upriver, and tragically ended the lives of 43 people who lived or worked or were simply passing through the rural area below the slide. Forty-three cedar trees were planted next to SR 530 as a memorial to those lost lives. Each tree has mementos that have been added to each tree by family and friends. Trees and hillsides behind the trees are shades of bright green in May, 2020.
