Taku River Floods: Nature’s Wild Pattern | Anchorage News
Description
A massive glacial outburst flood hit the Taku River near Juneau, triggered by Lake No Lake releasing water held back by the Tulsequah Glacier—no injuries or damage reported so far. Water levels are expected to drop through Wednesday, but predicting where this flood sits on its natural curve is tricky. The 2021 flood, the largest ever recorded on the river, was fueled by a perfect storm of snowpack, rain, and heat. Another smaller flood is expected later this year—nature’s wild, unpredictable rhythm continues to shape the region.
