101 Reopens!
Caltrans posted on their Facebook,
U.S. Highway 101 been reopened to one-way traffic at the slide located six miles north of Leggett in Mendocino County ahead of schedule.
Please exercise caution when traveling through the slide area, and pay extra attention to spotters and traffic control personnel.
Motorists should anticipate delays.

Anyone taking bets on how long before it is closed again?
Supposed to be dry for a week or more. If they work at cutting back at the top, above the slide, they may be able to keep it open.
I have missed the CHRONICLE so badly I could almost cry. Glad the road is open😎
Drivers, start your engines! Who will win the Bridges Creek grand prix. Its the F350’s of team grow[edit] against the clapped out beamers of team tweak. Don’t count out local favorite team grumpy in their old, old toyota trucks. Green flag!
scooter…Best thing I’ve read in awhile… Wish I would have seen it before the edit… Maybe it was even more fun inserting my own grow “blank”…. Thanks
I don’t allow terms that exclusively slur one gender. This one did.
If the light is green please dont dottle get the hell through it
I think the word you were looking for is Dawdle not Dottle, just saying is all!!!
Great Job Caltrans!
Not green flag racing, but you better haul ass thru the one way. Watching the spotters of course….!
Hey scooter. The big jacked up trucks are called grow dozers.
I wonder what Scooter called them; what justified the “edit.” It must have been spot-on.
Grow hoe?..it’s a special tool that farmers like to use in their beds😀
As you can see, my sense of humor has got me in trouble. My original post was edited by Kym, as it offended her. I understand completely. I should restrict my off the wall humor to the proper venue, as should you.
The area above the Cat looks unstable. I wonder how they determined to start below it. We are supposed to have a week without rain, but a trembler would surely cause a problem. I think I will stay home for a month.
Me, too. I wanted to come up for the KMUD Block Party, but now that I’ve seen what passes for “open,” I’m thinking not…. Darn.
Wearing a motorcycle helmet through that section might be a good idea.
Is it still open today???
Yes.
Hi guys! I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if we could drive by the hwy? I keep saying news that is one-way open but if I put the gps it will say the is road close, we are driving from the Bay Area to eureka to see family but we do not want to go the other way since it’s way longer and never drove there just through 101. Thanks in advance for any info!
It’s open.
That’s great news (hopefully!). Drive safe everyone!
Yes it is.. but for how long, it’s a giver I’m just glad everybody made it home safely
