New Cracks Found on Hillside Along Chilcotin River Close Bridge Due to Fear of New Landslides

[@nopriors]

This entire river looks like one giant landslide after another. I've never seen a river like this. Good luck.

[@rh5563]

That’s exactly what the name means. The natives knew.

[@jockmonsieur7272]

@@rh5563 What is the geology there? appears to be some kind of sand or ash with very little rock to be seen?

[@rh5563]

@@jockmonsieur7272 , it may be hydrothermally altered rock, along with the remnants of the catastrophic flooding that happened at the end of the Younger Dryas.

[@rh5563]

@@jockmonsieur7272 , and definitely volcanic ash layers. That entire BC area is volcanic. There is a couple of bad boys right in that area.

Love the work your doing! Its nice to see all the updates

[@5ayes12]

Big cracks indeed cheers and thanks for your work

[@how2what4]

Really appreciate your videos and update on the situation, watching all of this from the other side of the world, never been to this part of BC but once all is safe would be interesting to visit.

[@KS-hj6xn]

Keep the updates coming. Great info! A very interesting natural phenomenon. Almost as big as a volcano erupting. Lol

[@mrparrehesian1742]

Completely expected. Thanks for the update.

[@robguttridge6591]

Thanks for your updates, sir. I look after family land with similar geologic fragility, and it is informative to see what has happened, and what has yet to happen in our canyon, as it is currently happening up North in your canyon.

Thanks for staying on this 👍

[@jsnsk101]

Its an "ongoing situation" Yep, pretty much since the last glaciers melted

[@jeffwisemiller3590]

It ain't over til it's over. Couple rain storms & off it goes.

What is that in UTM?

Just wait till next spring…. !!!!

[@EricDKaufman]

In the native language, Chilcotin means "land that blocks the river"

[@debroselle8877]

I thought it was land that moves?

[@TagusMan]

Which language?

[@derek04151]

Chilkoot

[@Sunny_Hi]

Wrong, maybe you heard that the Chilcotin name for that area is "place of the slides", but that's not what Chilcotin means.

[@SupremeCannon1965]

Like dominoes - one slide and subsequent deluge down the channel causing another one right behind it. Could be an interesting year up there.

[@EricaMTB]

It may have stopped moving but if water enters the crack, it will likely move again.

[@WilbertRobichaud]

Hills are saturated from the lake behind the plug. It was predicted.

[@Sunny_Hi]

That's downstream from the slide, so the hills above the river wouldn't be "saturated"

[@robertmcgiverin]

Yeah I saw that coming to it's soft soil by the river side and will be easily washed away the ground under the bridges concrete upright supports is being washed away so highly probable that the bridge will collapse

The flood has gone through the Gates of Hell and well beyond Hope.

thats been going on for years in that areato the north at the cottonwood river crossing hwy 97 dropped 16 inches a few years ago and theres a rumor legend in quesnel the fraser flow north at that point some proffessional would know better about that a large slide block the fraser river

[@jimbeekman4863]

WOW. Not good!

[@coldeadhands]

A bunch of accidents waiting to happen. Is it just me or does what used to be a years worth of mayhem now happen every week?

[@coldeadhands]

Can you even imagine what the state of the west coast and inland will be after a 9 point something offshore or a 7.something inland?

[@coldeadhands]

You can repeat this scenario dozens of times on every river system there is

[@tonyt8950]

There’s cracks on EVERY riverbank in North America ! It’s what rivers do, water is the most destructive force on planet earth.
