What does that landslide actually look like, part 2: an active landslide
['Philip Prince']
Philip S Prince, Geologist
Like the slide in the previous post, this is a debris slide in which rock fragments and boulders derived from nearby steep slopes and cliffs are almost certainly sliding atop underlying bedrock. After entering the woods from the road downslope of the slide, the first indicator of slide activity is trees being pushed over by the toe of the slide. This fresh fissure development or cracking is interesting evidence of slide activity, and the width of the toe bulges indicates that the slide mass is certainly several feet (more than 2 meters, for sure) thick here.
