Mudslide Blocks Highway 128 Near Lake Berryessa

LAKE BERRYESSA (CBS SF/BCN) -- A mudslide Monday created a blockade on State Route 128 near the Monticello Dam at Lake Berryessa, the California Highway Patrol said.

No one was injured by the slide, which was reported at 4 a.m. Monday and closed the road between Markley Cove and the Yolo County line.

The route was impassable due to mud and rock piled about 4 feet high on one shoulder of the road, sloping down to 1 foot on the other side.

There was currently no estimated time for reopening the road as of press time.
