Default Dragon & Cherohala Problems

Killboy's facebook showed a mudslide on the TOD and the Cherohala skyway has been closed because of a complete washout. Hopefully they can get the TOD cleared, but the Cherohala may be closed for sometime.

That's not surprising since that area has been receiving some crazy weather as of late.

I've come around a bend like that on 129 at full chat only to hit a patch of dust/dirt- like being on ice. I think some poo came out that day.

drive safe, all!
