Nacimiento-Fergusson Rd. Blocked

UPDATE – Neighbor from Alm’s Ridge reported back at 1 am, that it took 4 hours to cut their way through from Ponderosa Campground to Alm’s Ridge (coming the back way up Nasty-Fergusson) due to downed trees. See comment section for reports from Clear Ridge.

From the coast going up, Nasty Fergy is blocked by many fallen trees, per a trustworthy neighbor. I will attempt to call the county and PV Station in the morning. For now, you can’t get there from here, or where ever.

  • well, from Clear Ridge on solar here....I see no lights on Apple Pie and have heard from my neighbor, just drove in no power anywhere (grid)/
    My gate got crushed, limbs everywhere very unsettling but this is life here on the ridge. Hold on !!!

    • I also heard an unconfirmed rumor from an unreliable friend (is that enough of a disclaimer?) of a downed tree/limb above Ventana. No further details.

  • Willow's open to 4 miles up, but a hand saw or chain saw could come in handy or just Popeye sized muscles!

  • Hi Kate, thanks for update on Nacimiento Road. Do you know if it has been cleared yet? Thanks for info. Warmly, Gina
