Hope Slide
The Hope Slide was the largest landslide ever recorded in Canada.〔(40-million-cubic-metre Pemberton avalanche second only to Hope Slide )〕 It occurred in the morning hours of January 9, 1965 in the Nicolum Valley in the Cascade Mountains near Hope, British Columbia, and killed four people. The volume of rock involved in the landslide has been estimated at 47 million cubic metres.〔Mathews WH, McTaggart KC (1969) The Hope Landslide, British Columbia.

==Prior avalanche==
Prior to the landslide, a small avalanche had forced four people to stop their vehicles a few miles southeast of the town of Hope, British Columbia— east of Vancouver—on a stretch of the Hope-Princeton Highway below Johnson Peak. As those people contemplated waiting for clearing crews or turning around, a second slide occurred.
