  • Old Fort Landslide Update – May 4, 2026, 5:00pm

    During our drone flight on Friday May 1st, we were able to see the range of the impact the landslide has had on the road and beyond.

    MOTT has reported that over the weekend movement rates continued to slow but the slide remains active. New ground cracking has been observed near the top of the slide, consistent with monitoring data. Water continues to be a concern, and weather conditions are being watched closely.

    Because of these conditions Old Fort Road remains closed.

    We understand the impact this is having on the evacuees and surrounding areas. We sincerely thank everyone for their continued resilience and care for one another as a community.
