Active road building an hauling is occurring. I didn't drive up there but I could see trucks all the way to the top

Francis Bailey - Aug 31, 2026

Good condition to the top, but appears to be getting actively worked on. Can't drive on it just yet.

Francis Bailey - Aug 31, 2026

The road has been re-activated all the way to 25.5km and there is a lot of logging activity/hauling going on. RR-3 to start and then switches to LAD-1...

Only drove to the start of the Iskut mainline. Good condition overall

I found out more details about this road from the shop owner in Jade City. She stated they’re actively mining at around 88km but the road is not acces...

Reasonably easy to drive in 4x4 truck with a mandatory creek crossing at 3km. No problem in a truck but probably not doable in a lower clearance vehic...

Same conditions as Kt reported although we didn’t attempt to drive through the narrow cut in the stuff on the switchback. The upper most switchback is...

Gated at the entrance and the bridge appears to be condemned

Steep and rocky in places but generally in good condition. I’d want a good 4x4

Heavily overgrown from the start and didn’t explore any further

Francis Bailey - Aug 25, 2026

Huge ditch at the beginning and then a large boulder after that. Multiple washed out sections. Quite overgrown for the first km but improves after tha...

Easily driven in any vehicle to 36.5km after which there’s a washout with a 4x4 bypass. Beyond that there’s large boulders on the road which can be dr...

Still barricaded when we drove past

Great condition up to Tenas Creek

Francis Bailey - Aug 08, 2026

No real change in conditions. The road is overgrown in spots but it’s not particularly bad pin striping by coastal standards.

Only drove/biked/walked as far as SL-2 turnoff. The road is bikeable to the major washout at 1.6km. After that it's not worth it.

Heavily overgrown, but walkable

Francis Bailey - Jul 19, 2026

Gates still open and the road is same condition as previously reported.

Heavily overgrown, but there's enough of a foot bed to work with. No possible to bike

Francis Bailey - Jul 19, 2026

Same as before! Didn’t drive any further but it’s good to the bridge at 32.5km

Good condition just two trees down that stopped us from going further

Francis Bailey - Jun 13, 2026

Nearly drivable to the very end but that last part after the new cut blocks at 29km was overgrown. 27-29km has a lot of rock fall, mud slides and fall...

Good condition to the end but lots of ruts and hidden pot holes

Great condition the whole way

We didn't get very far due to so many fallen trees across the road. Road bed was in good condition up to this point, but overgrown.

Francis Bailey - Jun 10, 2026

Only drove the first kilometer, but it's in good condition

Didn't drive but the road bed is fine just overgrown

Francis Bailey - Jun 10, 2026

Popular road from what we could tell. Great condition.

Francis Bailey - Jun 10, 2026

Easy driving all the way to the end. There were some signs about a washout at the end of the road but we only found some recently repaired culverts. R...

If you could reach this spur the first half would be drivable up to a section of road that’s sliding down the slope
