Hope Slide

The Hope Slide was a landslide that occurred in the morning hours of January 9, 1965 in the Nicolum Valley (49°17′56″N 121°15′49″W) in the Cascade Mountains near Hope, British Columbia and killed four people. The volume of rock involved in the landslide has been estimated at 47 million cubic metres. It is one of the two largest recorded landslides in Canada (along with the similarly sized 2010 Mount Meager landslide).
