Honkin' Slide in Big Sur

On Saturday, May 20th 2017, a massive slide moved more than a million tons of earth cut off a portion of California's coastal highway 101 in the Big Sur natural area near the coastal town of Jade Cove and an area known as Mud Creek. At 9:30 a.m. that morning, the collapse sloughed an estimated 1.5 million tons of rock and mud - about a million cubic yards - over the highway and into the ocean.
