Active landslide movement is on state geologists' radar following an unprecedented winter and leading us into a difficult-to-predict spring.
“We’ve been all over everywhere from Springville up to Bear Lake," said Director of the Utah Geological Survey Bill Keach,"With the enhanced rain, you know, we expect a lot more water in the soil which will loosen up a lot of those things that have been holding landslides in place."There aren't necessarily new landslides popping up, he said, it's that they are now more active.
Edward Hoefer lives near an active landslide on Springhill Drive and said this spring has him feeling more concerned than in previous years. Around eighteen homes in the cul-de-sac near his home have been evacuated and condemned since he moved there 13 years ago, due to the landslide.
