Comment

Around 5 p.m. on July 16, 2026, a thunderstorm dropped significant rainfall at Curecanti National Recreation Area, triggering at least three major mudslides on the East Portal Road. Extensive debris washed down from drainages above the roadway, covering significant lengths of the roadway with up to six feet of boulders, rocks, and mud.  Debris also covered the entire East Portal campground and much of the East Portal picnic area.

The campground, picnic area, and the East Portal Road will be closed until assessments and repairs can be completed and all facilities are safe for public access. Those assessments and repairs are underway. There is currently no estimate of total damage, costs, or opening dates. The road is close to all traffic including pedestrians and bicyclists.
