The downed trees on May 23, 2024 took all of us by surprise. I had to use the chainsaw I keep in my truck to cut my way through my driveway.
The sudden mini-disaster did not take Ravalli Electric or Ravalli County Public Works by surprise. The power was back on in hours and county road crews were clearing the roads at first light. Well done.
