Butte Avenue Closed for Winter

The road is too steep to be used safely during winter, the city says.

Butte Avenue, which connects Cimarron Road to Hidden Meadow Road in the northwestern part of Apple Valley, is closed for the winter, according to an announcement from the city.

The road is closed each winter because it's too steep to drive safely during the season, the city announcement says; it has been practice to close the road since 1972.

Butte Avenue will reopen in April.
