Quaternary(?) landslide features along I-17 north of Black Canyon City

On 20 June 2018, AZGS formally released a revised Natural Hazards in Arizona Viewer v. 2.0 including a landslide feature theme. Landslide features are found in all 15 counties. To date, more than 8000 landslides features have been identified in Arizona; 6,400+ landslides and more than 1,600 debris flow deposits. The landslide data was compiled by Ann Youberg and Joe Cook as part of the Arizona Statewide Landslide Inventory Database project. Landslides are second only to floods in the damage and loss of life they cause each year. You can view the Natural Hazard viewer here: https://tinyurl.com/NatHazAZ-Landslides
