Muddy Roads
Posted: Wed Apr 30, 2014 7:28 am
State of Alaska Division of Forestry Advisory Due to saturated soils during spring break-up please do not drive on Fairbanks Area State Forest Roads from April 20 through May 20.
Logging Roads include:
Cache Creek, Nenana Ridge, Rosie Creek, Skinnys, Bonanza, Standard Creek, Two Rivers, and Mosquito Creek
Forestry has put out an Advisory to ask that you do not drive on select Forestry roads in the Fairbanks Area from April 20- May 20 due to spring breakup conditions. If roads dry out more quickly, the dates will change to allow access prior to May 20th. The silt-based roads are increadibly muddy and traffic on them in this condition creates ruts which channel runoff and cause the road to washout, making it impassible altogether. If the roads are severly damaged by traffic and runoff it will take longer to make access possible, so please cooperate with any advisories that are posted.
If you would like information as to which roads this advisory impacts or updated information, please call Division of Forestry 907-451-2602.
Thank you.
