The hillside can clearly be seen moving as trees and brush are snapping were coming down along Old Coast Highway in Gaviota on Thursday afternoon.

Longtime resident Gail Giorgi of Nojoqui Falls Ranch captured the video of the slide, which is located between the top of Nojoqui Grade on the northbound side of Highway 101, and the Alisal Road turnoff to go to Nojoqui Falls Park. 

Giorgi can be heard talking with her husband Bill just before the tree starts to slide.
