It was a beautiful Saturday morning in the close-knit community of Oso, Washington when the hillside gave way.
The community had seen a record-breaking start to the year with twice the average rainfall falling in February and March. But on March 22, 2014, spring was in the air.
At 10:37 a.m., a landslide changed that community forever. In this episode, KING 5's Jake Whittenberg talks to rescuers and survivors about how that day unfolded.
