Sounds like there's a real risk tonight of #Highway168 between #Cressmans and #ShaverLake sliding off the mountain tonight. That stretch of road is called #6Mile and it's the only way in or out for the whole region. It was partially burned over in the #CreekFire in 2020 with sections having zero living vegetation.
There are some rough gravel forest roads that can be used in the summer as alternatives but in the winter they're usually under snow and have a lot of downed trees.

Here is a video and news story showing the #landslide that just blocked #Highway168 between #Prather and #ShaverLake and has contributed to isolating Shaver Lake, #HuntingtonLake , #ChinaPeak #ChinaPeakSkiResort , #DinkeyCreek , #ForkedMeadow , and others. Thanks, #AtmosphericRiver

Looks like #Highway168 from Prather up to #ShaverLake is closed due to a new landslide. Auberry Road is still closed from last week's storms and now it looks like boulders and flooding are closing #TollhouseRoad which means the mountain communities around Shaver Lake and #HuntingtonLake plus China Peak Ski Resort and #DinkeyCreek (and #ForkedMeadow ) are now cut off and isolated. Sounds like the highway 168 situation could be a pretty big slide.
