Storm triggers snow slides,
closes Highway 20/126
Heavy snowfall in the early hours of Thursday, February 18, triggered
a slide at Hogg Rock on Highway 20 west of
Sisters and closed the highway for the second time in 10 days.
Dave Davis, an Oregon Department of Transportation spokesman, reported
that the slide hit the roadway a little before 9 a.m., about a mile east
of the Santiam Junction.
The onrushing snow left a log truck buried to mid-door level and its
driver unhurt but trapped.
