Huffman's crews are monitoring a small landslide near a play area in Forest Glen Park. In Portland, a mudslide Sunday blocked a section of Southwest 45th Avenue. In the Willamette National Forest, a slide sent a giant boulder crashing down on a Forest Service road. The rock blocked access to a popular hot spring near Cougar Reservoir. During the weekend, a passenger train slammed into a slide near Castle Rock in Southwest Washington.
Crews hope to restore service sometime today.
Heavy rains have swamped playing fields around the Portland area. Gresham closed its soccer fields until March 31 because soggy conditions raised safety concerns. Lake Oswego extended its winter field closure. The Lake Oswego parks department also canceled rowing classes at its Water Sports Center because high water on the Willamette River made paddling dangerous. Across the Willamette in Oregon City, high water put the recreational vehicle area at the city's Clackamette Park under 8 feet of water.
