"The upside of the sheer size of the Kandor dome is you get weather effects. The downside of the sheer size of the Kandor dome is that you get weather effects. And that goes triple if you're near the crater rim outside the main city limits where the terraforming's still a little dodgy.

"Most of the rim's solid rock or it's been treated to hold the dome's retaining walls. But some of it - particularly the slopes near the bottom - is mostly cracked rubble and eons of lunar dust piling up. Now add a gazillion liters of water to this mixture and what do you get? Picture it: you're out on the rim minding your own business when all of a sudden a dome squall comes up and you hear this rumbling sound above you. You look up, and there's this huge mass of water, rock and mud coming down off the rim and straight at you.

"Thankfully it's not coming too fast. Outside the city the rest of the crater maintains lunar gravity, so the overall terminal velocity of all that crap is pretty low. Not quite so low you can avoid an avalanche by briskly walking away from it, but a good jog (plus some judicious leaping) will get you clear in a right hurry, even if it messes up your hiking expedition."

"You'd be surprised by the number of tourists we still have to pull out of the slides. Which is why they offer the fully enclosed helmet rentals to hikers. Also makes the tourists feel like spacemen in the lunar gravity of the dome edge."
