Canyons of the Colorado All went well until I reached a bluish spot which proved to be ice, on which I lost control of myself and rolled into a gravel talus at the foot without a scratch. Travels in Alaska The engineer proposed to his companions that they clamber up the talus and return to the Chimneys by the heights, exploring the eastern and western shores of the lake. The Mysterious Island The river flows far below, and a talus of rubble runs up to the foot of the cliff, along which talus, on a narrow terrace, is a path. Castles and Cave Dwellings of Europe From the edge of the cliff to the top of an earthquake talus it is perfectly free in the air for a thousand feet before it is broken into cascades among talus boulders. The Yosemite Large rocks have fallen from the walls--great, angular blocks, which have rolled down the talus and are strewn along the channel. Canyons of the Colorado I came in sight of it after a hard scramble of two hours through thorny chaparral and across steep avalanche taluses of rocks and snow. Travels in Alaska But the vegetation extended but a short distance, and then the long stretch of sand, beginning at the foot of the talus, merged into the beach. The Mysterious Island He reached it at last, and rushed up the talus of boulders, springing from stone to stone; till his breath failed him, and he was forced to settle into a less frantic pace. Two Years Ago, Volume II. No other tree in the Sierra seems so much at home on earthquake taluses and many of these huge boulder-slopes are almost exclusively occupied by it. The Yosemite Immediately below the falls the water occupies the entire channel, there being no talus at the foot of the cliffs. Canyons of the Colorado The roadway at its base is constructed across the talus, and is emphatically a glass road. My Native Land The United States: its Wonders, its Beauties, and its People; with Descriptive Notes, Character Sketches, Folk Lore, Traditions, Legends and History, for the Amusement of the Old and the Instruction of the Young Look again, as stronger proof, at the talus of broken stones—screes, as they call them in Scotland; rattles, as we call them in Devon—which lie along the base of many mountain cliffs. Town Geology No other tree seems so capable of adapting itself to earthquake taluses, and many of these rough boulder-slopes are occupied by it almost exclusively, especially in yosemite gorges moistened by the spray of waterfalls. The Mountains of California I was long in doubt on some points concerning the origin of those taluses. The Yosemite A long peninsula of willow-bordered meadow projects within the curve, and the talus at the foot of the cliff is usually covered with dwarf oaks. Canyons of the Colorado The talus which had lately been poured into the valley formed a gently sloping bank, twenty feet high, over which the Lachen-Lachoong rolled, from a pool above, caused by the damming up of its waters. Himalayan Journals — Complete In playing, they used three tesserae and four tali, which were all put into a box wider below than above, and being shaken, were thrown out upon the gaming-board or table. The Lives of the Twelve Caesars, Volume 02: Augustus Others are obliterated by land-slips, earthquake taluses, etc., but these lake-deaths compared with those resulting from the deliberate and incessant deposition of sediments, may be termed accidental. The Mountains of California Furthermore, all these taluses throughout the Range seemed by the trees and lichens growing on them to be of the same age. The Yosemite In many places they are vertical from the water's edge; in others there is a talus between the river and the foot of the cliff; and they are often broken down by side canyons. Canyons of the Colorado At the end of a long period the only alteration might have been the thickening of the talus which protected the loose cinders and bones from waste. The Antiquity of Man It is a rock of schistose sandstone, decomposed, covered with clay, the talus of which appears frightfully steep, from the effect of a very common optical illusion. Personal Narrative of Travels to the Equinoctial Regions of America, During the Year 1799-1804 — Volume 1 The poor creature simply took a leap out into space and landed on the talus below, down which it rolled to the water's edge. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 The avalanche taluses, leaning against the walls at intervals of a mile or two, are among the most striking and interesting of the secondary features of the Valley. The Yosemite Between the river and the eastern wall of the canyon there is an immense talus of broken rocks. Canyons of the Colorado And the talus formation which I have mentioned would be perfectly smooth; but it did not reach quite to the top of the cliff, maybe to within a foot of it. Over Prairie Trails Instead of calmly reviewing the arguments which I adduced, The Rock might have raised a cry of non tali auxilio. The Fair Haven The slopes or taluses represent the softer rock, the vertical walls the harder layers. Time and Change I found it somewhat difficult to keep up with him in dense, tangled brush, though in jumping on boulder taluses and slippery cobble-beds I had no difficulty in leaving him behind. The Yosemite In these variegated beds there are many deep recesses and sharp salients, everywhere set with crags, and the wall is buttressed by a steep talus in many places. Canyons of the Colorado This brought us to a small alcove where there was a limited talus. The Romance of the Colorado River The Story of its Discovery in 1840, with an Account of the Later Explorations, and with Special Reference to the Voyages of Powell through the Line of the Great Canyons Such a heap of waste is known as talus. The Elements of Geology Only at long intervals is the silence of any part of the profound abyss broken by the fall of loosened rocks or sliding talus. Time and Change Sedimentary layers, bed of small pebbles and talus respectively, total 592 feet thick. Geological Observations on South America There is a steep talus at the foot of the cliff, and in some places the upper parts of the walls are terraced. Canyons of the Colorado There was not room on the ledge for a camp, but by going out around a projection a talus was available, though there was a dearth of wood and level spots. The Romance of the Colorado River The Story of its Discovery in 1840, with an Account of the Later Explorations, and with Special Reference to the Voyages of Powell through the Line of the Great Canyons The amount of talus in any place depends both on the rate of its formation and the rate of its removal. The Elements of Geology Those vast sloping taluses are as clean as a meadow; rarely at the foot of the huge vertical walls do you see a fragment of fallen rock. Time and Change Within this same crater, strata of coarse tuff, chiefly composed of fragments of lava, abut, like a consolidated talus, against the inside walls. Volcanic Islands First there is the band of cherty limestone, from which a sloped talus leads to the creamy sugary sandstone. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it The fine earth which flows or rolls down the sides of such a mound accumulates at its base in the form of a talus. The formation of vegetable mould through the action of worms, with observations on their habits The solid rocks are broken and crushed in sliding and converted into waste consisting, like that of talus, of angular unsorted fragments, blocks of all sizes being mingled pellmell with rock meal and dust. The Elements of Geology The slope was one great talus, a jumble of weathered rock, fallen from what appeared a mountain of red and yellow wall. Wildfire On the canyon walls they weather back in horizontal terraces and long talus slopes. The Elements of Geology They, and lesser tree growths, descend to the bottom of the second mass of talus. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it Moreover, it is unprotected by any shield of talus. The Elements of Geology In a moist climate a soluble rock, such as massive limestone, may form talus little if any faster than the talus weathers away. The Elements of Geology The oversteepened sides of the trough are graded by landslips, by talus slopes, and by alluvial cones. The Elements of Geology They therefore erode but little until the talus fallen from the cliff is gradually built up beneath the sea to the level at which the waves drag bottom upon it and break. The Elements of Geology It is capped with the white sandstone, and is so closely sculptured that white fragments have fallen upon the sloping red talus beneath. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it The moving floor of ice stretched high across a valley sweeps along as lateral moraines much of the waste which a mountain stream would let accumulate in talus and alluvial cones. The Elements of Geology Sooner or later a talus reaches that equilibrium where the amount removed from its surface just equals that supplied from the cliff above. The Elements of Geology Thus a barrier reef may be formed by the seaward growth of a fringing reef upon the talus of its sea face. The Elements of Geology At the foot of this submarine cliff a talus of fallen blocks t accumulates, and as it reaches the zone of coral growth becomes the foundation on which the reef is steadily extended seaward. The Elements of Geology It was this fault that made the talus slopes, down which the Boucher Trail descends, and also the great eroded recess of Hermit Basin. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it The horizontal harder beds stand out in long lines of vertical cliffs, often hundreds of feet in height, at whose feet talus slopes conceal the outcrop of the weaker strata. The Elements of Geology As the talus is removed and weathers away its slope retreats together with the retreat of the cliff, as seen in Figure 9. The Elements of Geology Just above, and farther to the left, is a peculiar temple, resting upon sloping taluses of the red strata beneath, its cap formed of alone, narrow ridge of cross-bedded sandstone. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it Then the eye rests upon slopes of talus, which reach down to the red strata of varying thicknesses, which are deposited above the red-wall limestone, the widest member of the whole Canyon group. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it The talus shuts off the view, and it seems impossible that there can be such great precipice walls as the opposite mural face reveals. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it Now we scrambled over great rocks, then along a foot-wide trail, and at length wound our way out along a massive bank of talus. The Grand Canyon of Arizona; how to see it Cliffs of such slow-decaying rocks as quartzite and granite when closely jointed accumulate talus in large amounts. The Elements of Geology This brought us at length to the head of a great talus, down which the trail zigzagged—the incline was too steep for straight descent, probably at an angle of forty-five degrees.
