New investigations of instability at the Hochvogel (Allgäu, Germany)


The TUM Landslide Group continued the monitoring at the gradually opening fracture at the Hochvogel peak (2592 m, Allgäu, Germany) in late September 2017. By performing further measurements of the opening fracture and drone flights, the group assessed the kinematics of the preparing rock slope failure at the Hochvogel peak.
