Massive rockslide blocks Douglas County road
The Oregon Department of Transportation posted a picture on social media Wednesday morning showing a massive rockslide a day earlier along Tyee Access Road about 15 miles west of Sutherlin in Douglas County.
"Southern Oregon is prone to landslides with steep slopes and weak rock and soil," states the Facebook post. "Add a heavy dose of winter rain and events like this occur."

The cause of the slide has not yet been determined, public works said.
