After inspectSALT LAKE CITY ing unstable Davis County canyons last week, a state geological hazards expert said we should probably be prepared for the worst. Bruce Kaliser, chief of the State Geological Hazards Division, said Friday debris slides are starting to occur at the mouths Of Davis County canyons below 5200 feet above sea level. They are only small, insignificant slides; for example, at the. mouth of Farmington and Davis Creek (canyons), he explained. Last year, when those mudflows came down, erosion made the slopes steeper along those channels so they're coming in very steep. Those banks are slumping but are not a hazard. They're a nuisance you might say. , Kaliser said the state has not found any problems at higher elevations because the snow has not melted at those levels. The state geological department with the help of the Idaho National Guard, recently took aerial photographs of the canyons. Kaliser and other geological officials inspected the canyons last week. Kaliser said conditions are much worse where last years mudslides oc- - cured and detached materials remain. The probability is we need to expect more debris flows because as the snowline retreats, its going to bring down some more debris with it." he said. It looks, worse because we had those slides last year which left a lot of earth mington Canyon. Weber Canyon near the Weber Basin Job Corps center.
