Eight autos and 15 men and women ended up left stranded as a outcome, but 4 of the automobiles have been ready to convert all over around “the stairs” and travel again down. The other four vehicles will stay on Bridal Veil Street till it is risk-free to retrieve them.

Black Bear Go and Bridal Veil Highway will continue being shut until at least Tuesday but that depends on how rapidly county crews can clear the street. With far more rain in the forecast there could be further rock and mudslides more than the following number of times.
