My Driftin Memory.
I saw the cars in California buried in mud. Those pictures remind me of when I worked for Caltrans at the Lake Henshaw Yard. The San Felipe Rd from SR 79 to Scissors crossing on SR 78 near Banner grade was 17 miles. It was a County Rd. They had a mud slide on the western 5 or 6 miles. They started from the 79 with a front end loader, a grader, and a dump truck and started east clearing the road. Another crew with the same equipment started from the east end and worked west. Took them 3 weeks to clear the road. On our end at the 79 JCT, there were about 6 or 7 cars buried in mud about 4 feet of mud. We had some problems in Sentnec Canyon the 78 between Scissors crossing and the Yaqui Pass Rd turn off. Which meant we had to go all the way to Julian and down Banner Grade to get there. Which was about 40 miles around. I hadn't thought about that in years. Things you remember from a picture.
