Not really super famous, and i guess that's why it suprised me.
In Alberta, there is a small mining town called by Crowsnest pass called Frank. They dug coal out of frank mountain for years until the whole side of the mountain was riddled with shafts. One fateful morning the weakened mountainside collapsed, sliding down and wiping out most of the town. Driving through the slide (they brought the highway right through the middle of it) I was completely suprised and amazed at the scale of the devastation. The rubble went on for miles and miles, rocks the size of buildings strewn about the landscape. The museum is set on a vantage point that allows you to see the whole thing, and it is just incredible. Really something i'm glad to have seen.
