Elliot Creek Landslide LiDAR Mapping - 2023 - Airborne Coastal Observatory

10.21966/szqj-b355

The Elliot Creek Landslide, Tsunami, and outburst flood occurred on November 28th, 2020. The cascading hazards created a run-up trimline on both sides of the lake and created areas of significant erosion and deposition between the slide and the entrance of the Southgate River into Bute Inlet. Hakai Institute continues to conduct a high-resolution LiDAR and Imagery survey of the entire area of interest to help monitor recovery following the disturbance event and subsequent erosion/deposition. Specifically, the recovery of the Southgate River Salmon habitat is of interest to the Homalco First Nation, DFO, Hakai, and many others project partners.

Elliot Creek is now an important area of interest in a new project looking at the broader Bute / Homathko region for other potential outburst floods.

Other projects associated with this project are Raleigh Creek, Lake55, and Orford.
