Got ya. That is like 20 miles from all the climbing, on the far side of the Park where no sane person goes. That road, I swear to Satan, washes out a couple of times a year. And they just re-did the road too. Me thinks they should try some different repair method. It is such a common event that it did not even make the local paper!
The rain around here can be amazing, and most of it comes right around now, known as the "Monsoon Season". The winters are terribly dry and rain is rare after say October or so. Aug and and Feb are our wettest months, if .81 and .61 inches are considered wet.
