Location: | 10-302297 and 10-307287. One kilometre north east of Upper Gellibrand. | |
Access: | Ridge Road. | |
Ownership: | Private land. | |
Geomorphology: | This steep valley section of the Gellibrand River displays several stages of landslip development. Adjacent to Ridge Road in the north of the site is a depression high on the slope which is probably a back tilt block of an old landslip. Two hundred and fifty metres south of Roadnight Creek Road junction is a group of recently active landslips that extend from the ridge crest to the valley floor. Two wind gaps on the ridge north of the main landslip may be high level abandoned channel segments of the river. | |
Significance: | Regional. The landslips and wind gaps demonstrate the process of valley development on the upper Gellibrand River. The youngest landslips probably postdate land clearing. |
