Did you see it? The new landslide registry

Oakland is peppered with landslides, whether up in the hills like this little earthflow off Grizzly Peak Boulevard or down in the flats.

Now the U.S. Geological Survey wants to collect them all, the same way it does with earthquakes. By analogy with its “Did you feel it?” earthquake reporting site, the Survey’s Landslide Hazards Program has launched a “Did you see it?” site.

And now I have submitted this landslide to the DYSI page.

    There was one a couple of months ago on Moraga Avenue. The street was closed at least 3 days while the mudslide was cleaned up. The dirt is still piled in Blair Park.
