Came up 38 late evening. Maybe 8 cars on the road total to to bottom. So nice. Only incident was something on the steep winding part just below south fork. Tow truck, CHP, couple of vehicles. Quick glance made me think either one of the vehicles over corrected and ended up in the large rocks at the side of the road or they avoided the other vehicle and ended up there. Rocks were 1-2 ft diameter. Ouchie for the vehicles!
