Boulders and Rocks fall on vehicle 1 and 1/2 miles south of Deetjens

It is unclear from the log if this was last night or this morning.  Don’t drive on Highway One in the dark unless it is absolutely necessary … Cal Trans is not out after dark nor before sunrise as it is too dangerous! You may be taking your life in your hands – or at least the life of your vehicle.

This is what CAN happen, and did happen on Highway 140, the entrance to Yosemite this am, for those who did not see my FB page.
