Sandstone erosion can be quite fast too (few decades of years) and will result in heavy boulders falling.

@jonnywilson9117

8 ай бұрын

Just to clear things up though, the question would be, run where exactly? The thing about hearing danger and just running means you could accidentally run into a much more dangerous area. Because if you can't see the river, do you run forward, backwards, or simply just in the opposite direction of where you think the noise is coming from? For anyone that may read this, yes, run like fuck. But. Before your run, take a moment to listen to exactly where said noise is coming from and run in the safest direction. So make sure you have a good understanding of the area and don't just go in a direction without any thought. The last thing someone would want to do would be just run, thinking they're going away from the danger, only to realise they ran closer too it. Might be farfetched with what I'm saying, but sound travels and bounces off of surfaces, so it may seem like a sound of falling rocks or whatever is coming from you in front to your left, when maybe it's coming from behind. Which is why it's crucial to understand exactly where you are and what's around you. Same goes for a dry riverbed. Hear a loud noise. Don't just run. Pay attention to where you're walking and run toward the and up the banks. There's be nothing worse than hearing a flash flood and ignoring it because it's hot and sunny, or has been hot and sunny for several days, only to realise how fucked you are when you're in a dry river bed that's 30 or 40 feet wide with only 20 or 30 seconds to get out. Pretty sure that's happened to people before.

How did you hold on to your bike?

Yes, there was a warning. When the smaller pieces began to crumble and fall. I'd say that was a pretty good warning that larger pieces were about to fall.

I don't know how they got so lucky to witness this in person, but thats pretty amazing

That's both beautiful and so scary. This was not without warning, when there's a sedimentary cliff of mostly sand and brittle slate, a concave cliff face is an indication that the lip of the cliff will fall. We get warnings all the time about people not camping right on the river bank or on the cliffs above the river for this exact reason.

California is very new, geologically. It is constantly changing and much of it is very unstable.

Too much humidity, it penetrate deep down the soil layer, it all just went down at once, glad someone was able to record the beauty of nature

This is also why you NEVER camp along a riverbank.

People fall from collapsing cliff edges all the time. I have personally arrived at hiking, nature sites 3 times either just before or after someone fell and died: Fort Funston SF, Julia Pfifer waterfall trail in Big Sur and angles landing hike in Zion. Be careful and remember it can and does happen so exercise good judgment.

It displaced a LOT of water! That’s very exciting, and rare to see. We saw a small landslide in the Grand Canyon, and when we reported it, the ranger said we were very lucky, and that even small landslides occur (or are witnessed?) only about once a day. The question that comes to mind is “if a landslide occurs in a canyon, and nobody is around to witness it, does that count as a landslide?”

the first rocks falling was the warning. i live in Portland, Oregon and we have this happen all the time. we have a area of downtown portland called the West Hills and there are always falling rocks and landslides especially when it’s been raining. so they had a warning, they were just too arrogant to think it wasn’t a warning

This is precisely why I don't stand on cliff ledges, no matter how thick or sturdy they look

Exactly 6 mos after I took friends to hike the whole cliff side I refused to stand on GONE and even way farther back where people would stand. My friend lived about a block away and got woken up by an, and I quote’ ungodly sound’ as it collapsed!

@@E.C.Animation that's incorrect, try searching for that definition again. "a series of waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in an ocean or a large lake. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including detonations, landslides, glacier calvings, meteorite impacts and other disturbances) above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami. Unlike normal ocean waves, which are generated by wind, or tides, which are in turn generated by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun, a tsunami is generated by the displacement of water from a large event.

You do know the roots of the trees actually damage a rockface like that, right? By growing into cracks and exuding substances that dissolve the rock so they can "digest" the minerals, over time the roots grow bigger and damage the rocks even more. What trees hold is the soil above a rock, which prevents mud slides (so yes, they are important, just not in the way you think), not the rock itself.

i mean cliffs aren't known for being the most prolific social media posters but it could look into hiring a social media PR person to tweet out status on its behalf.

The trees growing right by the edge are possibly causing it their roots invade and split the rock

This is why we as humans need to get ahead of these natural geological processes, accelerate them safely and artificially in controlled manners, before we start planning construction development on what isn’t understood to be unstable ground.
