Mountain of Silt
Images, eqnz.chch.2010

Thought I Would Drop In

Dried liquefaction silt in North New Brighton. The photographer comments, "This is the the top layer of liquefaction that has dried up in the hot sun.

You can see underneath that the heavier sandy layer of liquefaction has dried and has cracked as well".
