Because Of The High Winds! And The Low Snow Level Yesterday!
I Drove To The North Fork Put In And Back! To Make Sure The Road Was Open!
And I Made The Very First Set Of Tracks In The Snow!
The Maximum Depth Was Only About Three Inches!
And It Now Has Two Sets Of Tracks To The Bare Dirt!
I Moved 14 Trees, Three Were So Big I Had To Cut Them With My Chain Saw
And Drag Them Out Of The Way With My Four Wheel Drive Truck & A Heavy Duty Chain!
So The Road Is Road Is Open! And In Good Shape For Today!
