Should be an interesting ride as here's the report from the head ghost of the old town: Last I saw, there was no CG road. I crawled up with my Dodge 2 nites ago, but it has flooded again since. Yesterday afternoon's muddy real-time run-off nearly stopped me and my quad...'cept for some rock-fill/road-building. No idea about the condition of the Swansea-CG Mexican Spring Road, given that Boiler Cyn ran hard enough to close Hwy 136 between Swansea and Keeler. It's probably gonna take several days...long ones, for the county to put the road back in...bottom to top. Worst I've seen since 1984, except for what hit me at Swansea in '97.

A group of friends are going up on Saturday and will call me and let me know ahead which route is best, -------------------------------------------------------------- Cecile --------------- Well behaved women rarely make history - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich Explore Historic California

Darn...we'll miss you, David!!!!! -------------------------------------------------------------- Cecile --------------- Well behaved women rarely make history - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich Explore Historic California
