Peter says: Just to let you know that the bulk of the State Route 505 repaving work is complete so any slow downs on the way to Johnston Ridge during the remaining project weeks should be minor.
You should know that when I visited Johnston Ridge on opening weekend, Peter was on hand with a camera trained on an elk herd in the valley below, generously sharing the view with visitors (some of whom had cell cams sophisticated enough to capture the scene through that lens). Perhaps my next such opportunity will bring back a trophy photo shot.
