ams Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Heard that the road to Harts pass was closed earlier this month. Checked the USFS website and didn't see anymore info. Anybody know if it's reopened, or when it will? Thx, Alicia Quote
Toast Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 How far up that road are you going, all the way to Harts pass? It's fine up to Robinson Creek, maybe 10 miles up... was there maybe a month ago. Quote
curtveld Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Anybody know if it's reopened, or when it will? At the Winthrop Ranger Station last week there was a notice indicating it would reopen in mid-Sept at the earliest. Not sure why they haven't posted that on their access web-site - wiggle room in case it takes longer or shorter presumably. Quote
John_Scurlock Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 The newspaper over there had an article about it recently. A big rockslide came down across Deadhorse Pt. It was discovered by FS folks on snowmobiles in late spring. The road seemed to be covered for several hundred feet by huge rocks. (There was an impressive photograph with the article.) They were calling in engineers to figure out what to do. Based on what I saw & read, I would not be surprised to see it stay closed for quite a while. Quote
