Winchester Creek

We started on Westside Calispell Rd to Tacoma CrRd and drove that up hoping to get to Calispell Peak. Unfortunately the road has been barricaded with three 15’ high mounds of dirt with two 20’ deep holes between the three mounds of dirt and rock. There were no signs letting us know of the closure, no gates, nothing. We stayed on the Winchester Creek Trail route and did not venture anywhere else. The higher we drove in elevation the more rocky the trail became and is very washed out and is more of a Level 4, definitely not a 2. I have provided a photo of the first dirt/rock mound. The photo does not do the size any justice. We will try it from the other side and hopefully get to the peak.

I didn't take a picture. The property SIMSON WASHINGTON INC near coord 48.40943, -117.49403 is closed. There is a brand new gate with signs saying the road is private and no trespassing. I did not go around through the North side of the property.
