Trying to clear the oozing mess.
If there was a train in...
It couldn't get out. The bridge across the creek was gone. With all the bridges out, The company cleared a road down into the creek and out along the tracks toward Healy. The upper road was under construction and washed out in several places.
It was still raining and the bridge approach to the tipple was gone.
Walking down to the tipple the next day.
Mud 5 feet and more deep!
