A) Typhoon Sinlaku Taiwan Mountain Footage, Sun, Sep 14
For the third day of Typhoon Sinlaku’s lashing of Northern Taiwan, my friend Kurt and myself decided to jump in a car to take a look at the start of the real damage to be – up in the local mountains. We traveled to Wulai Mountain, just South of Taipei City, to get an idea of how the river was holding up, and what we saw shocked us (as we knew the river level would only continue to rise over the coming 48 hours).
The Dam above the Aboriginal Village of Wulai, which is usually only a trickle, letting loose down the mountain (headed for Taipei), 3pm, Sunday, September 14
