    I've been visiting Rancho Palos Verdes since 1955. I lived at Belmont Shores in Long Beach. I've ridden horses there.
    After studying geology in the 60s, I became obvious to me that it was all going downhill. The slip is 300 feet deep. Prehistoric landslides can be reactivated.

    On a positive note?
    Brand new surf break emerging.
    Call it Landslides

    Excellent presentation. I love learning the details about things like this that news can't cover. They have similar problems up in the Seattle area along their shoreline. But they have a unique slide in one area that they call an underthrust. Like the land is sliding in a bowl. It pushes down on one side but up on the other.

    This is what PV gets for having Marineland move out. Poseidon Greek God of the Ocean is mad for closing the marine animal culture exchange.

    Make the local residents pay for this. They're entitled rich people on an extremely private beach. No public access. Time to pay your bills RPV.

      Keep in mind 1-2 million dollar house can’t be sold for any price, no power or natural gas so living in your house is difficult, and if you’re really unlucky house gets torn apart. Households have paid. No insurance covers this type of risk.

      @stevemackner3875 Everyone hates the rich, except the rich.
      As long as they don't let their inner socialist out to have my taxes rebuild on a landslide, I don't care. RPV can inbreed and have all the Diddy parties they want on their private beach.

      Not so private. Just walk right down to the beach. Already paying the highest tax rates in the country. Property taxes are insane!
