Worsening Roads

 I don't like to complain but I did complain about our road condition. Post wildfire now each time it rains the sludge and debris runs down the mountain and it is getting serious. The ditches and culverts are full of this hard impacted stuff and subsequent run offs now go right over the top of previous deposits and across the road. The top photo show how full the ditches are and there is no place for additional sludge to go except over and on the road. The photo below shows where it has run across the road.

 The top photo shows where it plugged a culvert and the water is now running from a year around spring across the road. It won't be long before the channel keeps getting deeper and deeper. It used to prior to the wildfire run through a culvert into the meadow and soak in.

This photo shows where the water is starting to erode the road because the ditch is full of hard packed ash. In our case we can't go out the other end of the road because it is now impassable due to mud slides. This end of our road because it was previously maintained is only a few rain storms away from being the same way.  We are considering our options for access to our home in case the association doesn't keep up with keeping it open. They were going to fix a small part of the road on a day specific three weeks ago but never showed. We are increasingly becoming nervous about their ability to continue to properly maintain the roads with so much damage on going.
So far we can get in and out okay but with more rain that will change for the worse. Maintaining 115 miles of dirt roads with two operators may just reach its breaking point sooner than later and we want to be prepared.
