[edit] Summary

Description	The "dam" formed by a 1983 massive landslide (slump) that distroyed the town of Thistle, Utah and the scar from where the mountain formally rested. This picture was taken from a window on the California Zephyr just as the train was entering the the Billies Mountain tunnel. Also visible in the photograph is a dirt road made from the original railroad alignment up to the dam and a spillway created to ease pressure on the forming dam. Prior to 1983 a photograph from this vantage point would show a free flowing Spanish Fork River and the town.
