Directly opposite of Bäregg is a wall where in 2021 a big rock slide took place. Bäregg (and the trail to Bäregg) were perfect spots to wait for the rocks to fall.

The below video shows the enormous powers in play.

If you watch the earlier part of the video, you see what a spectacle it has been. A real attraction.

Video of rockslides of 1 million tons (not sure about how many penguins this represents) or 450'000 cubic meters (again, not sure how to explain to our American friends).

After the rockslide from two weeks ago, the people of Brienz AG are allowed back to their houses, lifting the evacation order.

Geologist have been monitoring the rock face after the slide (especially if rainfall would make the rock face less stable again), but they are of the opinion it is safe to return. Only the immediate area of the end of the rock slide remains off limits.

Three views of a meta-sandstone outcrop perfectly cut to lead to dip-slope, planar failure into the roadway. This is on SR115, or US129, in Blount County, Tennessee, infamously known as the Tail of the Dragon
