The above slide happen at the entrance booth at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area here in Newport Thursday, Jan 12th at around 4PM. There was a employee inside the booth who has worked here for nine years, she stated she will never forget this day. She heard cracking noise shortly before the slide, she looked up and saw the hillside sliding toward her and with a sound like thunder. She was uninjured, and was able to get out of the booth to saftey by crawing out a window. Per the Newport Times reported the fee operation at Yaquina Head will be relocated to the vistiors center.
