Did it make any noise.
No, it was caught by tree protesters.
Oh that’s so funny. Wow. Nicely done.
Who protests trees?
people who live in the desert
Do you guys mean briceland-thorn rd?
No. Ettersburg Road heads north off the Briceland Thorn Road.
Took king range road. Yeeee hawwww
If you can reach ettersberg road it 10 minets from redway you drive way to fast
Its basically ten mins from junction if youre heading from redway, from what ive been told. Kym?
Roughly yes. It’s about a two miles east of Thorn Junction.
Did it ever clear? We had to go Bull Creek.
It is no longer on the CHP page so presumably it is clear.
It is now clear.. It got cleared in record time! By 1:40 we were able to get through.
Thank you everyone who helped!
Telegraph Ridge Volunteers arrived first on the scene, secured the possibly live power lines, and did traffic control.
T- Ridge Fire Company and CAL Fire cleared the tree out of the road as soon as PG&E
came and made sure the down power lines were shut off.
We did this about an hour and 20 minutes after it was reported.
Humboldt County Roads crew was sent from Fortuna, but it was open before they got there.
The location was 2 miles North of the Ettersburg Junction. Ettersburg Jct is 10 miles (about 20-25 minutes)
west of Redway.
Thank you.
Many men in pickups. Chain saws.
Humboldt County…
