This is a nice overview of a slow-moving landslide in a Salt Lake City, Utah neighborhood where you can go on Google Earth and do your own aerial photo analysis using Google’s historic aerial imagery. Dr. Dave also points to some available resources from the Utah Geologic Survey that show the rate of movement accelerating with around 2-ft of movement over the past 6-months or so.

TDOT crews had almost finished removing rockslide debris from an event earlier in the day when a second slide occurred, blocking the road again.
