New slide near Legget,CA blocking hwy 101
Video posted 14 hours ago on facebook.
One of the comments on the video...
" I want to see the footage that the Cal Trans guy was taking, who was literally just FEET away from that slide. Love it when the horn sounds. That must be the "**** just got real" horn!"
for those that don't have access to view a video posted on facebook I'll try to describe it.
It a dark and rainy night on hwy 101... road crew is on the scene of a potential slide... small rocks are seen sliding and tumbling down toward the road from above. Large lights shine on the hillside. A few guys in hard hats are on the road, ahead of the stopped line of cars..., looking up. More rocks fall and tumble...more and more than an air horn blasts a warning and those hard hats hussle back to safety in the nick of time. The hillside comes down, takes out the wire mesh barrier and blocks the road.
The audio on the video is basically the verbal reaction of the female taking the video.
I don't think hwy 101 is going to open anytime there soon.
