 The Forest Service surveying crew is now working on the Long VaIley-Sutton Ranch road and IS encountering some diff culties in finding a practicable route across the Blue Ridge. This is a bad place, the badness of which need hardly be called to the attention of any one who has tried to cross it by wagon or motor. The chances are, how ever. according to MT.
