(18:43) Mo Co- The Big Sur landslide, which occurred on May 20th, re-shaped the coastline with slide material 600 feet out into the ocean creating 15 acres of new land. A quarter-mile section of Highway 1 now lies under rock and dirt 1,700 feet wide. In total, about 75 acres of land were displaced. The slide is currently still active with access restricted. Three separate areas of Highway 1 remain impacted by this winter’s storms: Mud Creek (PM 8.9), Paul’s Slide (PM 21.5) and Pfeiffer Canyon (PM 45.5). Areas to the north of Pfeiffer Canyon Bridge are still accessible and remain open to the public traveling from Monterey these areas include Garrapata State Beach, Point Sur and Point Lobos.
