Photograph showing the Katmai Canyon
landslide. The hummocky area on both sides of the Katmai
River is the landslide deposit, marked by a dashed line,
with the crest of the scarp shown with a solid black line.
The landslide dammed the river, creating a temporary lake
that flooded in 1915. Subsequently, the river has cut down
through the landslide deposit.
