ABSTRACT
The Cassas landslide is located on the right side of the middle Susa Valley, in the Salbertrand Municipality, in the “Gran Bosco” natural park (county of Turin, Piedmont, Italy). The Cassas slope is deeply touched by instability phenomena; the word “cassas” (probably from French “casser” to break), used over the ages to indicate this zone, refers to debris accumulations (Brovero et al., 1996a).
