Nowadays this damage area has been cleaned up and every damaged or fallen tree has been carried away. It means that now its little easier to walk a round there and see the scale of this destructive event.

The "clean area" is the damage path! On that evening 29th of June the massive downburst particularly flattened this whole area. When I first time visited this site every tree was still untouched and only 5-10% of them were still standing. Most trees were uprooted but in some areas trees were mostly cut in two. Still...these pictures doesn't show all, because the damage path extends out of sight in one direction!
