Summary

[edit]
Description These illustrations of a large landslide show a single mass of rock debris breaking loose high on the flank of a volcano and sliding into a wide valley. Note the initial development of a headwall scarp at the top of the landslide (top image), the widening path of the landslide as it enters the valley, and the horseshoe-shaped crater carved from the cone (bottom image).
