Impassable Water Crossing

Its deep, and the skeeters were SO BAD, I found it wasnt worth losing that much blood trying to winch myself through. There is a sign warning the trail is flooded a bit after entering trail from the west.

Impassable Water Crossing

Road closed sign wasn’t kidding. Drove through two 2’ of water washout crossings. Ended up at an impassable crossing for my can am SxS. If you have something lifted with ground clearance you can possibly make it.
