Many slides occur from soil off site

Many sink holes occur from voids below conventional boring depths

Soils reports may be useless

Soils report should be able to include reference to possibly unstable hillside above or below. Most slide areas have a history with readily evident topography. Should never have been developed-- it is not a question of if the next slide will occur it is a question of when.
