R Brown's video: Stevens Canyon Land Slide Tectonic Block Part 1

A return visit to the landslide area along the old section of Stevens Canyon Road. The week before, I ventured into the depression between the canyon slope and the ridge above the landslide. I had once thought there was a creek that flowed down here and that was associated with the slide activity. But after studying the hill shade map as well as setting foot up here, I realized this looks very much like the "sag pond" depressions along the north side of Stevens Creek that the Canyon Trail follows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sag_pond Paper: ENVIRONMENTAL GEOLOGIC ANALYSIS OF THE MONTEBELLO RIDGE MOUNTAIN STUDY AREA: https://openlibrary.org/works/OL68916... Pg. 22 mentions a landslide associated with the 1906 earthquake and this is ground zero for that slide. In fact, the report mentions that slide extended for 1/2 mile, nearly a kilometer, along the canyon.
