Caption

A work crew operates a drilling rig near Little Lake in the Oregon Coast Range, where researchers pulled up a buried archive of sediment that helped them detail climate changes dating to a massive landslide 50,000 years ago. The location is just west of the community of Triangle Lake that sits on the edge of a larger lake with that name. The valley is about 40 miles northwest of Eugene, Oregon.
