Mudslides form when a mass of soil, rock, and vegetation becomes saturated with water, losing its strength and cohesion, causing it to flow downhill. This saturation can be due to heavy rainfall, snowmelt, or rapid melting of ice, creating a fast-moving mixture of water and debris. Steep slopes and areas prone to erosion are more susceptible to mudslides.

Mud slides occur when there is high soil moisture with minimal root intrusion to retain the soil's shape.
