Highway One remains closed

As of 8 am, Highway One remains closed at Polar Star today. The unofficial word has it that there might be scaling and or blasting to rid the slide of more material from the top. This will bring all the loose material down so that it might be cleared from the highway and make it safe to work under the slide area.
