How are slip off slopes formed?

Slip-off slopes are formed through the process of erosion, typically by the continuous downhill movement of soil and rock material due to gravity. As water flows downhill, it carries sediment with it, gradually eroding the slope and creating a gentle, concave shape. The material at the top of the slope is more prone to erosion, leading to a buildup of sediment at the base, which contributes to the formation of the slip-off slope. Over time, this process can result in the development of a distinct feature known as a slip-off slope.
