The morphology and chronology of a landslide near Dillon Dam, Dillon, Colorado The morphology and chronology of a landslide near Dillon Dam, Dillon, Colorado
Investigations were made of a landslide at the Dillon Dam site, Dillon, Colo., that included detailed laboratory and field analyses of the mineralogy, chemistry, and physical properties of landslide materials and the bedrock formations from which they were derived. These investigations provide an understanding of the relative importance of various factors contributing to the origin and

Preliminary report on the geologic and geophysical investigations of the Loveland Basin landslide, Clear Creek County, Colorado Preliminary report on the geologic and geophysical investigations of the Loveland Basin landslide, Clear Creek County, Colorado
Geologic and geophysical investigations of the Loveland Basin landslide, which formed at the cut for the east portal of the Straight Creek tunnel, were made by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Public Road and the Colorado Department of Highways. The investigations indicate that the slide has a probable minimum volume of 500,000 cubic yards weighing 1,000...

Landslide conditions along the Ferry County highway parallelling Lake Roosevelt from Kettle Falls to the mouth of the Spokane River, Washington Landslide conditions along the Ferry County highway parallelling Lake Roosevelt from Kettle Falls to the mouth of the Spokane River, Washington
As part of the program of the U.S. Geological Survey, landslides are being studied in several localities in the United States. These studies are directed toward assembling criteria for recognition of landslides, classification, and cataloging of remedial or control methods that have been effective. In the gorge of the Columbia Ricer in Washington, landslides of large magnitude have been...
