[UPDATE 10:15 a.m.] Bull Creek Road Closed by Tangled Mess
Residents of the Honeydew and Petrolia area will either need to go north through Ferndale or south through Redway to get to Hwy 101. (Wilder Ridge is closed so they can’t come south.)
UPDATE 10:15 a.m.: According to a reader, “[T]hey have the trees out of the way now and working on the mud hopefully have it open by the end of the day.”

Thanks for the updates, I have not seen anything anywhere else about this closure! I have been keeping my sweetie aware of what is happening, so she can possibly get out to come to town.
South thru Redway? How is that supposed to happen with Wilder Ridge Road out?
Ugh…I forgot about that. Those poor folks. I’ll fix my post.
How will the Honeydew people get past the Wilder Ridge road closure on their way to Redway?????
Please drive slower than usual folks. Wow we’ve got more coming. Please take care,and take water xcloths,flares,blankets,flashlites!! The girl scout in me. My kids make fun of me for taking everything but the kitchen sink.lol
Far better to be safe than sorry!!! Better to haul around a few things than to get caught with ones proverbial trousers around their ankles!!! Especially when one has to beat a hasty retreat!!!
Wilder Ridge is closed due to road washout just south of Honeydew… Residents of Honeydew and Mattole Valley can only use the Wild Cat to Ferndale.
Robin how many years have they called it the wildcat?
A wildcat is a term used on a oil well in an unlikely location. So perhaps it’s from when petrolia struck oil in 1865.
Thanks Rachelle!
Is the treacherous Kings Range Road open to Sheltercove ? I wouldn’t drive it without a bulldozer in tow. A very rough road. And along drive at that.
