New USGS map shows where landslides are most likely to occur in U.S.

Map of the United States including Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico showing landslide susceptibility from yellow (fewer landslides) to red (more landslides), where the areas without shading represent negligible potential for landslides. Higher landslide susceptibility is evident across most mountainous terrain within the U.S., but there is also considerable potential scattered throughout other areas of the country.
