Untitled edit
I wonder how long the landslide lasted. Was it a matter of days? Years? Eons? If anyone knows, this would make a good addition to the article.
Largest slide? edit
From what I can see, the Storegga Slide is much larger, although it happened on the ocean floor. An area the size of Iceland ( 100,000 km² ) slid in three slides, which makes the total are roughly 75 times greater the the slide that created Heart Mountain. Any comment on this is apprciated.
Correction to the name of the mountain edit
The original name of this mountain was Hart Mountain (as in hart, or deer). I was never clear if the mountain was named for such a animal, or after some person with the last name Hart. As late as the 1950's and 1960's locals were still correcting the spelling, but it seems that the incorrect spelling has won out. Because of the Relocation Center there was a train stop there, and the railroad sign for the stop read "Hart Mountain" The Bureau of Reclamation, however, named their irrigation project there, and its feeder canal, Heart Mountain. 24.117.239.18 07:23, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
Requested Photo Tag edit
I just added the requested photo tag - I think we should get some pictures of the mountain from the ground. :) There is a not very goot shot of it from ground level in the relocation center article, but I'll bet there are probably some better ones in the public domain. If not, we'll try to track down some Wikipedian in the Bighorn Basin or Cody to swing by and get us a shot. Its a hard mountain to miss. - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 17:28, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
- I found a bunch on Flickr and have contacted one photographer to see if she will be willing to give us a photo. howcheng {chat} 18:04, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
