Just heard there is a landslide starting above Giesbrecht road.

Sounds like no injuries hopefully no property loss.

[GENERAL-SHERMAN]

I had just walked into lickman to check out the river when the slide happened yesterday. There was  a loud noise and what sounded like an avalanche when the slide started. I got my phone out and video taped it just before it was done sliding. Deffinetly sounded like a blast led to the slide initially but obviously weather had a part in the unstable hillside. Called it in after it happened and the firefighters did a good job responding and blocking the backside of lickman. Glad it didn't make it down and there was no houses involved. The slide seemed to start at the very top of the mountain where the quarry is as well.
