After all, a country that managed to complete the Gotthard tunnel on time and within budget can probably rebuild a village too. 😉

Once the situation has calmed down a bit and assessments of further rockfall and flood risks are completed, it’ll be interesting to see how efficiently the Swiss handle things and maybe even rebuild Blatten or larger parts of the Lötschental.

Following the glacier collapse in Blatten (Switzerland), experts now predict further rockfalls. A dammed lake poses flood risks, and nearby villages have been partially evacuated. The situation remains tense.

Not quite – the evacuation of Blatten (VS) was ordered on May 19, just days before the glacier collapse on May 28.
But you’re absolutely right: the Swiss monitoring system worked impressively. Early detection made timely evacuation possible.
Public funds well spent indeed.
