Cheekye Fan

The Cheekye Fan is a large landslide feature in southwestern British Columbia, Canada, located at the head of Howe Sound. It formed as a result of collapse on the western flank of Mount Garibaldi when the volcano was constructed on top of a glacier during the Late Pleistocene period.[1]
