#SewardHighway AVALANCHE MITIGATION. Here's a nice video of some of the work going on at MP 90 to enjoy while we wait for the road to reopen. Mitigation crews are working hard to keep you safe! Check updates on 511.

I was deeply saddened to hear the tragic news of Mayor Monica Carlson and her mother, Cora Louise Adams. Mayor Carlson was a wonderful leader that will be truly missed.
Updated: Skagway Mayor Monica Carlson had toured the White House earlier in the day. Gov. Mike Dunleavy has directed state flags to fly at half-staff on Jan. 1 in Carlson’s honor. adn.com/alaska-news/2018/12/…
