A Calamity

Maria was taken aback when she realized that sounds were coming from the boulders that broke off from the top of the cliff right behind her. The huge pieces of rock started to crack and fell right next to her. Maria really was lucky to have heard the sounds of the rocks cracking.

Rocks And Rocks

Maria had no time to react and was totally perplexed. She has literally saved her life. Within a few minutes, tons of rock came crashing down and that too within a range of 50 feet of Maria’s location. All around it was dust and debris. Tons of sand filled the beach.

Help Help

Sooner or later, Maria’s instincts kicked in and she knew she had to run and vacate the place. She immediately kept her book aside and got up from the towel. Maria started to run to the other side of the beach, panicking and asking for help.

How Did It Happen?

Maria safely made it to the other side and gasped. She breathed heavily and couldn’t believe what she had just escaped. She would have been under those rocks and would have injured herself really bad. All she wanted to know was how did this happen?

Cliff Fall

Petites-Dalles never witnessed such a cliff fall. Maria was really grateful that she could escape this disaster which else would have costed her life. However, even one loose boulder could lead others to follow. And this is what often leads to an entire cliff fall.

Officials At Work

When the other beachgoers and officials came to know what all the woman has escaped, they were scared. They decided to inform and warn the other beach visitors who sunbathe in that part to prevent them from any sort of accidents.
