the small remote town of Elk City is cut off from driving out, due to a massive landslide.



"We've all been expecting something big to happen. And we obviously didn't expect something to happen yesterday but with the moisture that we've been having... I don't think anyone was actually shocked that it happened. But it's a known problem and everybody has just been waiting for the day for it to come down."

Crews will be working to grade Forest Road 1199 to open it up for emergency services. The road, which is typically not open during this part of the season, will be for emergency use only.
