Popis: GEOMORPHIC SETTING: Slope along major interstate highway and state road underlain by either stiff or compacted clay both of which tend to lose strength with age. The layer near the surface is subject to wet-dry and freeze–thaw cycles; the cohesive strength gradually approaches zero. During the wet season, the ground becomes saturated.
