Two very large rockfalls in 1991 left an almost 1,000 m high cliff on the western side of the Matter Valley in Southern Switzerland. The valley is one of the most travelled in the Alps as it serves as access to the town of Zermatt and the skifields immediately adjacent to the Matterhorn.
Members of the TUM Landslide Research group and Geomorphological and Environmental Research Group at the Universität Bonn captured video of one of the largest failures to occur on the site since 1991. Visit Kerry's blog site to find out more about the failure and check out the spectacular video.
