A friend notified me about a local news story regarding a partial cliff "collapse" at Torrey today. Here's the picture from a local news source:

What's interesting (at least to me) is that that area had already "collapsed" many years ago. The small peak in the middle of the collapse area was always known to me as the "southern rhino horn", and it stuck up in the middle of an area that had already slid or eroded long ago. I wouldn't have expected it to slide again given that it was far less steep than many other areas of the cliff. But maybe whatever factors caused the earlier slide(s) are still present. According to the reports, no one was injured.
