All entrances to Sycamore (Bush/Beeline, Sugarloaf and Mesquite) that lead to lower Sycamore are closed through the weekend at least.
Lots of serious erosion issues at the creek intersection with FR403.
A road crew is expected to effect repairs on Monday 9/30/19.

@CannondaleKid I don’t know my road numbers out there but FS was locking gates at Mesquite and Sugarloaf on Monday when I was out there. The LEO told me it was due to anticipated rainfall and flooding to come.
