Also, an update for best travel on HWY 78 around the MM13 bridge for people trying to get to Roscoe…On highway 78, turn on Lower Luther Road to Luther Roscoe Rd, then to Metcalf Rd, back onto HWY 78. This is the safest route to Roscoe at this time. If people are wanting to go to Absarokee, travelling north on Hwy 212 to Hwy 421 towards Columbus is the most safe since dirt roads are saturated.
