We live in the Zion N.P. area, rockfalls are pretty common. A couple of years ago a rock fell and crushed a home, killing the husband and wife! The town was Rockville. ________________________________ "Nature scares me" a quote by my friend Bob after a rough day at sea. | |||

I recall a rock-slide from a few years back that occurred in Italy. Drone video footage below. | |||

Reminds me of when Senaca Rock fell in WV many years ago I had stood on top of it a week prior ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live today as if it may be your last and learn today as if you will live forever | |||

Wait, what? |
Time and the elements will bring down the largest mountains. Do a search for "massive landslide" on youtube. There are some truly humbling vids that make that pebble seem insignificant. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

"Watch For Falling Rock" and "Watch For Fallen Rock." I've seen both signs and could not discern why one one location might get one phrase over the other. Just something I've always thought about since my first memories camping in the Adirondacks. In this case, it's kinda hard not to miss that fallen rock! ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

Leave it. Looks like it's out of the road way. Just fix the road. | |||

If they can, that is likely what will happen. in Palisade (Colorado wine country) you can see a number of spots where big rocks have fallen down the Bookcliffs and into the valley and they just leave them there. I tried to find a picture but couldnt find mine from the last trip. This business will get out of control.

"drilling and blasting?" Why don't they just shoot it with a 10mm, and sweep up the gravel? | |||

What gravel?  There might be gravel left if they used explosives, but with a 10mm? Nah. Just granite vapor.  ► 6.4/93.6 “I regret that I am to now die in the belief, that the useless sacrifice of themselves by the generation of 1776, to acquire self-government and happiness to their country, is to be thrown away by the unwise and unworthy passions of their sons, and that my only consolation is to be, that I live not to weep over it.” — Thomas Jefferson | |||

Well that was anti-climactic. Whoever did the math (and the drilling) on the explosives did a hell of a job using "just enough" and not a pinch more. -Dtech __________________________ "I've got a life to live, people to love, and a God to serve!" - sigmonkey "Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value." - Albert Einstein "A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition" ― Rudyard Kipling | |||
