This amazing video has been making its way around the geoblogosphere as well as the mainstream media. Pretty remarkable. It ranks up there with the Japanese Landslide Video.

Landslide Closes SR 14 in Utah
A large landslide has closed SR 14 east of Cedar City, Utah. UDOT expects that the road will be closed for up to 2 weeks for cleanup and to ensure that the slope is safe. Boulders up to an estimated 20 tons are now blocking the road and will likely need to be blasted down to a smaller size. A UDOT spokesman interviewed on the video shown after the break estimate the size of the slide at 700 to 800-ft long and 10 to 12-ft thick.

Dear Sir,
I would like to enquire about the landslide that happened on 15 feb 2010 in Italy ( maierato region).
What are the soil types and what is the structural geology of the area. Any idea as to how could i get the maps?
Thanks,
