View down the Río Santa Teresa in the vicinity of Lloska Mayu in N direction. The landslide in the left foreground was already visible in satellite imagery of 2017. The glacial lake outburst flood process chain of 2020 possibly resulted in river bank erosion and, as a consequence, destabilization of the slope and reactivation of the landslide.
