Text
of sign:
Kautz
Creek Nature Trail
Along
this short trail discover clues to one of the most powerful geologic
forces that has shaped Mount Rainier. Mudflows have
thundered
down this valley, toppling trees, damaging bridges, and leaving
behind thick layers of mud and debris.
Stroll
along this boardwalk to see the effects of these mudflows and to
experience the recovery of this once dense forest.
Geohazard warning:
Without warning debris flows and glacial outburst floods can occur
at any time, eroding stream banks and scouring everything in
their
path, including rocks and trees. If an earthquake occurs or
you hear a prolonged rumbling, move quickly uphill, away from
rivers
and streams.
