254 has multiple closures now.
So if I need to go North 101 from Redway, I first have to drive north to get to Dean Creek, take the southern 101 onramp, get off in Garb, then get back on the freeway heading north? Sounds like I better get a little more gas.
Why not just take the Northern 101 onramp after Dean Creek to go North on 101?
“But there is a slide at the northbound onramp near Dean Creek. “Extended closure,” says the California Highway Patrol Incident page”
You must have missed that part? It’s closed according to this.^^^^
Thank you. I noticed that the northbound was closed and deleted my comment well within the 30 minute timeframe but the delete feature did not delete.
Cool. I’m just glad I don’t need to drive up north today!
What does Mad River Beach look like? I spent 14 years at Tyee City, and dealt with several floods, that thankfully never made it into the house. Enjoying a mountaintop in North Georgia at the moment…
I just got back from Mad River Beach. The County had the road blocked off about a mile from the ocean, just east of the houses (Tyee City, right?) on the south side of the road, but still west of the Mad River trestle. It was sunny, warm, and beautiful. Took off my shoes, rolled up my pants, and walked to the beach through many calf-high stretches of water, especially mucky and slick near the boat ramp access. The homes in the location i just described were mostly just muddy on the driveways; but on the north side, nearer the river, a couple of the half-abandoned-looking places had water up above the foundations.
As i was leaving, many more people in high-clearance trucks were driving to the beach parking lot–they just pushed the barrier “horses” to the side and came through.
Do they have any good tye dye in north Georgia? The river got really high through there but not near as bad as in the late 90’s
Kym, The photo credit is incomplete above. Who took the photo on Ettersburg road?
Glad you caught that. I fixed it but the photographer is David Ellsworth.
Thanks, turns out he was visiting my neighbors and we saw each other on the road as I was heading for the bridge to take some shots.
Drive slow and safe.dont go thru moving water!!stay safe please
Standing water is not advised, either!
Time to go kayaking!!!
I just drove from Brookings to carlotta ,and no trouble at all there were only 2 small slides reduced to one lane and fallow the pilot car other than that smooth sailing all the way home
I’m not familiar with the road names, are there any roads closed between Briceland and Redway and can you get to the dump?
As of this time the road is clear between Briceland and the Dump.
