PaulO Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Looking at the photos/video - it would appear that other parts of the property are also in real danger. Some of the pavement on the edge of the landslide already broke off. The spring rains are going to raise the river and cause more erosion. The land in between the river and the structures looks like nothing is there to hold it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A really good, shipyard style bulkhead may have prevented it from being as bad. But it's hard to stop Mother Nature.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
