Act now

  • Heed all warnings and evacuation notices.
  • During a storm that could cause a landslide, stay alert and awake.
  • If you do get stuck in the path of a landslide move uphill as quickly as possible.
  • Avoid river valleys and low-lying areas during times of danger.
  • If you are near a stream or channel, be alert for any sudden increase or decrease in water flow or water that changes from clear to muddy. These can be signs that a landslide is coming.

Plan ahead

Live in or plan to visit a landslide-susceptible area?

  • Build an emergency kit and make a family communications plan.
  • Connect with your local emergency services.
  • Leave if you have been told to evacuate or you feel it is unsafe to remain in your home.
  • Follow proper land-use procedures, such as avoiding building near steep slopes, close to mountain edges, near drainage ways or along natural erosion valleys.
  • Become familiar with the land around you.
