These were today at Paul’s Slide. Photos by Brendon Shave. I’m not an expert, but I don’t see how anyone can even work on this mess until the rains stop. There are 11-12 photos, and while I could and maybe should put them in a slide show, I sent myself smaller versions:

HOLY MOLY!!!
Wow!!
I just hope people stay safe working on it. Just seeing the bulldozer there is scary! Its not worth losing another person in all of this mess.
And thank you Kate as always for keeping us informed.
How lucky that nobody was working on top of that when it fell in; the scary thing is that we may see this same thing happening in one or two other places along Highway 1 before winter is over (and I see there's another several days of rain coming President's Weekend)
I can't imagine being the equipment operator knowing the lane next to me landed in the ocean! His hands are definitely bigger than our prez'!
LOL. I love the image, Little Philly
I've lived here for over forty six years and have never seen it that bad. Even the two hundred year floods we had in the late 90's were not this bad.
WHOA Nellie!?!?!? WOW! ouch
Road crew and everyone, be super careful! I was in Big Sur in 1973 when the road washed out at the Coast Gallery. It was not a good time! So dangerous!
WOW! That's amazing! Thank you for all your posts.
Lloyd, I'd vote for "83 in 83". In 1983 at least one area in Big Sur measured 83" of rain. Partington residents were caught between slides for a couple of months and the road cut in two for a year by a slide north of JP Burns
