Measuring Major Soil Erosion at Devil’s Den

There is a man in a National Park Service uniform standing in a central frame. He is holding a tape measure which is extending down to the ground along the side of a paved road to his side at a higher elevation. The pavement is up to the man’s knees and looks like it is floating above the ground without any support. The tape measure is determining the distance between the ground and the pavement.

A park ranger uses a tape measure to show how drastic the erosion has been at Devil’s Den. The erosion in this area is so bad that the concrete sidewalk has been undermined by 16 inches in height.
