    The Davidson River wiped out the bridge into the Brevard Fish Hatchery in Pisgah National Forest when I was there. They brought in several government agencies including the Civilian Conversation Corps (yes they still exist) and did it right this time.

    Bridge isn't going anywhere now.

    Surprised me it wasn't that way to start with. Downstream is also the Cradle of Forestry in America visitor center.

    I'm willing to bet you could land a Chinook on the deck on the backside of it. Some people complain that the government over builds. Until what ever it is wiped out and gone.

    I went for the direct/shortest route. Took the long way home today and I'd guess I saved myself at least 3 hours of travel time.
    google maps says my route down is 215 miles and 4:30. Was more like 7:00
    route home is 216 miles and 4:02. I made it in 4:20. Would have been faster but I got stuck behind two motorhomes in potato land and couldn't pass

    These detours will be with 500' of the respective crossings and these roads are nothing like you guys have. Not near as remote. But the PIO does public announcements for important stuff like what you experienced. They may have had more signage up that blew away or got stolen. That stuff does happen. People do get stupid and want to steal signs in natural resource areas for some reason. I can't stick up for the "forest circus" because I don't know what or how they did it, but stuff does disappear. I've had entire signs and barracades stolen over night.

    Yup, I'm just a dozen miles or so down the road.

    I've felt two shakes since I got home this evening. Just happened to be stopping for a rest after unpacking when I felt the 3.6 one. And another 3.3 just a bit ago too. I actually have the USGS site and the U of U seismic site opened up in my browser right now. :laugh:

    All those red squiggles at the bottom I've felt. This is a seismograph located just outside Yellowstone on Hebgen Lake, about 75 miles away

    I try not to overbuild too much but the usual rationale is we want that stuff to last. Not everyone is happy with what we do but (like puppies and truck drivers) they quit whining after a few weeks.

    I can see that happening....but nothing on the website? Come on....

    The 8.5x11 sign was stapled to a 2x2 of particle board so maybe somebody needed a backer for target practice.

    I kinda want to call the FS tomorrow and just play dumb, see what they say if I let them think I'm coming down this next weekend.

    Call and complain. I tell our visitors that all the time. They may not know something is broke if you don't tell them. Even if it's something in my realm, I may not have time or dollars. This way it gets in the system and it'll come up in someone's email and it'll get attention. When we get a complaint it goes out to a bunch of us. Plus, if I need support from Engineering or Contracting or whomever, I have that base complaint documented and it gets attached or used in the process.

    99* today. Hot all weekend so we took the pooches to the beach. It was Baloo's (golden) first time and he had a ball plying in the water until a big wave knocked him over.
