Description
MOROCCO - HIGH ATLAS mountains : two Berber villagers are seen on the trail leading up the Mizane Valley to the Toubkal Refuge at 3207m.(10,520 ft ) Below lie the remains of the huge landslip which occured during a wild storm in the mid 19th century, filling the valley bottom and wiping out lucrative wallnut orchards. The small settlement is Aroumd, standing at 1960m.( altitude, established in the early 20th century, and the final habitation before the Toubkal approach.
Derbyshire, Castleton, landslip, subsidence, Mam Tor, Rock disaster road landslide
Description
One of the distinguishing features of Mam Tor Peak is the active debris flow resulting from a rotational landslide that occurred roughly 4,000 years ago. The initial failure exposed bedrock displaying a sequence of shales and sandstones near to the summit. Evidence for the continued movement of the slide mass is demonstrated graphically by the continued severe damage to the old A625 road that traversed this flow. The road was originally built at the beginning of the 1800s and was subsequently relaid until local authorities closed the road in 1979. Layers of tarmac and gravel are up to 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) thick in places, demonstrating the numerous efforts to keep the road open.

MOROCCO - HIGH ATLAS mountains : the northern flank of TOUBKAL (4167m./13,671 ft) rises over the remains of the catastrophic landslip of the mid-19th century which still fills the floor of what was once a bountiful agricultural valley at the roadhead hamlet of Aroumd (1960m./6,430 ft)
MOROCCO - HIGH ATLAS mountains : the northern flank of TOUBKAL (4167m.13,671 ft) rises above the huge landslip which coves the floor of the Mizane valley at the roadhead village of Aroumd (1960m./6,430 ft) The catastrophic landslip was caused by a violent storm in the mid-19th century and obliterated lucrative wallnut orchards and much prime agricultural land. Late April.
