  • It's a great first step but unfortunately the Forest Supervisor is referring to this as a "temporary closure". Camping along road west of summit has been a problem long before Pfeiffer Bridge failed and Mud Creek Slide.
    It will be a public safety issue long after highway repairs are made. Please make it a permanent ban to keep residents safe and cut down on toilet paper and trash that always gets left behind.

    • Marcus, he is referring to it as a "temporary" measure with no end date given. There might be a reason for that, which I will explain in person to you tomorrow. Introduce yourself, but I think I know who you are.
