Mudslides are a thing that many people not living in mountainous terrain simply don't realize exists.

The word "mudslide" also kinda hides the nuance that those contain stones.

Is a landslide different to a mudslide?

[–] Krzd@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Landslides have bigger "chunks" in them and each individual point in a landslide moves a smaller distance than mudslides which are much finer and "flow" almost like an extremely oversized river, just made of mud.
