A view of slump down from the Monticello Village Apartments landslip in Athens, Athens County, Ohio. The Monticello Village Apartments was a complex of fourteen to sixteen buildings when construction was finished in 1968. The level area on which the apartment buildings were constructed was fashioned from a cut on the hillside in the Clarksburg red bed. The mudstone removed in this cut was used as fill on the edge of the hill in order to expand the level area for apartment construction. On November 4, 1972, the slope failed, causing the destruction of a 150 meter section of Hastings Road in the location of Ohio State Route 32. On November 7, 1972, four buildings were evacuated after additional rapid movement of the...

Rockfall adjacent to a mobile home trailer at Sugar Grove, Fairfield County, Ohio. The rockfall material is the Black Hand Sandstone Member of the Cuyahoga Formation. Bedrock is from the Mississippian Geologic Period. The image was made in February 1983. Location approximate to a general location in the township.
The cliff face with evidence of spalling on the rockfall outcrop after rockfall in Pomeroy, Meigs County, Ohio. At 2:00 a.m. on December 2, 1971, approximately 830 cubic yards of sandstone, principally in the form of large blocks, fell from a cliff in Pomeroy. Several of these blocks bounded into the mail-sorting room and parking lot of the Pomeroy Post Office, on Second Street, destroying a corner of the building and filling the parking lot with rock. The sandstone cliff at this location is cut by joints that run parallel to the cliff face. Beneath the sandstone is a weak shale that has been eroded, thus providing little basal support for the overlying sandstone. The rockfall material is the Pomeroy sandstone of...

The sandstone cliff site of Ohio's only fatal landslide on United States Highway 52, west of Hanging Rock, Lawrence County, Ohio. The landslide killed James A. Spence of Ironton on December 24, 1986. Joints in the sandstone are visible in the outcrop. The massive sandstone responsible for the main mass of rockfall ranges up to 60 feet thick and is stratigraphically below the Vanport limestone. The rocks involved in the fall are assigned to either the Upper Pottsville or the Lower Allegheny Group undivided. This area has shale, siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate, limestone, and coal lithologies. Bedrock is from the Pennsylvanian Geologic Period. The image comes from the files of the Ohio Department of Transportation.
The view from the flooded area to the west of the landslide at Jackson Furnace Road in Hamilton Township, Jackson County, Ohio. The picture was taken on May 24, 1967.
A view of a landslide with slump features, showing possibly redundant activity, near Portsmouth, Scioto County, Ohio. The image was taken on December 12, 1967.
A rockfall at the Lower Falls at Hocking Hills State Park, Hocking County, Ohio. Downstream from Old Man's Cave, Old Man's Creek encounters the resistant lowermost zone of the Black Hand Sandstone and cascades into a broad plunge pool as a scenic waterfall known as the Lower Falls. A large rock shelter is developed behind the waterfall. At the base of the rock shelter the contact between the Fairfield Shale and the Black Hand Sandstone Members of the Cuyahoga Formation can be seen. Bedrock is from the Mississippian Geologic Period. This photograph was taken by Michael C. Hansen on January 7, 1978.
