Question 4 The Gros Ventre rock slide and the Madison River rock slide both took place in the same region of the country, in the Middle Rocky Mountains. What else do they have in common that teach us a valuable lesson? These rock slides tell us the importance of rivers in saving lives after a mass wasting event. O These rock slides tell us the power of very wet rains to create mass wasting events. These rock slides provide evidence of the role of deforestation in enhancing mass wasting. These massive rock slides, like many in the news today, create large earthquake lakes that overflow catastrophically and lead to flooding downstream. Question 5 What is the type of geomorphic feature that results from repeated rockfalls at the same place? Doline Flatiron Fault scarp O Talus cones
