A woman captured video of a tall and spiralling dust devil near the visitor centre in Enderby on Friday, May 12.
Amanda Renner says the dust devil appeared just as the Enderby high school grads were finishing taking their pictures on the nearby bridge.

鈥淣ot sure if I鈥檒l ever see something like that again. All of my friends are pretty amazed by how big it was. It鈥檚 definitely not something that is normal in Enderby.鈥�
