2011 Middle Cathedral Rock rock fall

A small dust cloud dissipating near the base of a steep rock cliff.

A rock fall from the north face of Middle Cathedral Rock. The rock fall originated from high on the center-right part of the north face, near the rim. Impacts of the blocks on the cliff face produced a small dust cloud that dissipated within a few minutes. No rock debris reached the Valley Loop Trail or Southside Drive.
