[Geology2] Alaska '64 Earthquake and Landslide



The USGS just published this image on Flickr and I had to share it:

Alaska '64 — ​Our #TBT for today: During the March 27, 1964 Alaska earthquake, the marquee of the Denali Theater, which was in the graben of the Fourth Avenue landslide in Anchorage, subsided until it came to rest on the sidewalk in front of the theater, which was on ground not involved in the landslide.​
