Summary

The maps in this data release show active landslide structures in three areas along the north flank of the Slumgullion landslide. After the entire active part of the landslide was mapped in 1992 and 1993 (Fleming and others, 1999), we remapped these three smaller areas at roughly decadal intervals. Our goal was to learn what structures might persist and how they might change as heterogeneous landslide material of variable thickness passed through the areas. Together with the original 1999 map, these maps provide snapshots of the deformational features at converging and diverging margins of the landslide at four periods in about a 30-year time span (1992-2023). During summer months in 2002, 2013, and 2023, we conducted 1:1000-scale [...]
