Highway 70 closed through the Feather River Canyon UPDATED
UPDATE: The highway has reopened Dec. 31, but check before taking the route, as more rain is forecast this coming week.
Caltrans is advising that Highway 70 is now closed through the Feather River Canyon from the junction of Highway 89 (Greenville Wye) to 1 mile east of Jargo Gap (Pulga) due to multiple rock slides and flooding. Earlier today, Dec. 30, a portion in Butte County experienced a rockslide and one-way traffic was in effect.
