Appointed appellate counsel for indigent defendants (retired.) I have lived in Big Sur since 1984, first on the north coast, and on the South Coast since 1989.

  • A rough guess would be around 100 year round residents. Hopefully the Sycamore canyon entrance is still accessible for those folks. . . . haven't seen anything like this outside of an earthquake.

  • So...that third photo, did the outside part drop, or did the inside part rise? I'm guessing the outside dropped, as that makes the most sense....but it seems there'd be more damage if that's the case. One of the weirdest road problems I've seen.

  • Wow, these rival photos I saw of the Santa Cruz Mountain roads even before Monday's storm (minus the vehicles hanging by one wheel at the road collapse)!
