I'm glad we didn't read this paper—http://eprints.ucm.es/12561/1/4-ARTICULO_3R.pdf—before moving to Mallorca or we might have changed our minds! I'm even gladder that we didn't settle down in Son Cocó (see Fig. 14). The rock avalanche occurred on 12/19/2008 follow a period of intense cold rain. It's a classic "wedge failure" resulting from collapse of a vertical Toblerone Bar of rock bounded by two conjugate joints and the cliff face. The wedge broke into Toblerone Bar pieces during the collapse, some over 1,500 cubic meters in volume and several tons in weight. The mountain, called Puig de s ́Alcadena, appears on the right of http://www.gigapan.com/gigapans/196199. Can you spot the house you really didn't want to be in when this was happening? And the astronomical observatory on an unseen distant mountaintop? Source: http://eprints.ucm.es/12561/1/4-ARTICULO_3R.pdf
