For those of you that have been there these pics will be eerie. Usually this time of year, this time of day (2pm there) there would be 100’s of people out in the pics enjoying the weather (80’s) and scenery.

spoke with a friend that works the bars and they’re getting by but ready for things to get back to normal. Town is dying right now!

It’s been raining for days (weeks!) in So Cal. Eerie I suppose but it sure looks nicer than here !

Thanks for your post. Ironically I was just thinking about KW and what things would be like there. So, the bars remain open?

Nope. Everything shut down. The last pic posted above is dirty harries, ricks tree bar, the busiest hang out during the poker run / races. As you can see, It’s locked up tight.

Has a Walking Dead vibe to it... I can picture some folks out shuffling around looking like a walker... just searching for a place to get a beer... 😄

I think Spielberg, Bay, Scott, engineered this whole mess, so they can film The ultimate apocalypse movie.

Thanks for the clarification. I recognized all the photos. Looks like they are doing it right. But, it is kinda eerie.

Not boating related but I'm on an newsletter email list for Mammoth Mountain and I received one today. It said that 80-90% of the residents of Mammoth are unemployed at the moment. I was floored. They have a food bank open and have been serving 5000 meals a week since March 23rd. Crazy.

I've been...

That first pic had the most impact for me. There is usually a line there 10 people deep to take pics!!

This too shall pass.

Craziness! I've never seen KW like that! Last time we were there my feet got soaked at the Southernmost Buoy due to high tide. 😁 Thank you for the pics Tank!
