The Dragon has been closed with barriers on both ends and manned 24-7 due to a rockslide down below it by the lake, and the Governor due to no longer havin' ambulance service (Long political story)....also Little River Road, Parsons Branch, Motor Nature Trail, and others are closed, and the Park down to one lane at various times. All of this except the Dragon was announced last Fall. Construction Work, and Road closings are from now through September at various times for construction.......  |
