Status Reports

Light snow nothing to really worry about. First time over the pass was nice and not super long.

So worth it. Perfect time to go. 99% dried out, all kinds of different terrain, scraped the side of our 4Runner at one really narrow portion, but fine throughout. Able to pull off for other riders. Roughly 20 people spread out over the course of an hour riding ATVs, dirt bikes, buggies, etc...with nice stretches of being alone in between.

Some snow on the road, been a while since snowfall so it was very manageable in 4wd. Could become more difficult with just a couple inches of snow.

Some folks on the trail until you cross county road 31 and then it was empty all the way to the end in South Park
