Elaho Main

Good condition up to G-Main. Snow started around the 7km mark near the Maude Frickert falls. Very tracked out and easily driven though. Didn’t get bey...

Snow free up to Elaho, didn’t go any further. Lots of pot holes but not the worst condition

Francis Bailey - Jan 19, 2025

Totally overgrown

Francis Bailey - Jan 12, 2025

Same condition as Alan reported. Alders are clipped until the 5km mark or so. After that it’s mayhem. High snowpack definitely required.

Snow start...

Lots of pot holes but easy driving. No snow on the road

Huge tank trap right at the beginning

Francis Bailey - Jan 11, 2025

I’d say this road is right on the cusp of “heavily degraded”. If you have a 4x4 with high clearance it’s no issue at all, but a cross trek likely woul...

Great condition up to branch 39. No snow at all. However snow started on the branch at around 600m so I would assume this road is not much different

Not drivable with a vehicle as there’s multiple washouts, but very easy foot travel. Virtually no bush at all

First 200m is drivable after which there’s a constriction/washout that will block most things save for a atv or dirt bike

Francis Bailey - Jan 04, 2025

I drove in from Shovel Creek/Harrison side. A few sections where water is washing out the road and pooling. Also a fair amount of pin striping and gen...

This road would only be driveable for the first kilometer or so. After that there's numerous washouts and it made biking quite a challenge. Manageable...

Great condition to the top

Road is in excellent condition thanks to the newly built microwave tower. Easy biking to the top

Francis Bailey - Dec 07, 2024

The first part has been re-sloped (sidecast pull back), but then levels out for a bit. After a few hundred meters it becomes exceptionally overgrown a...

Unrecognizable as a spur road

Lots of road boundary flagging and recent pruning of the alder. The road is in decent condition for the first few hundred meters after which the water...

Very overgrown. I was happy to have a bit of snow here

Road is in good condition up to the first creek at ~1km. Here there's large washout with a 4x4 HC bypass. After that the road mellows out again. Only ...

Heavily overgrown from the beginning and end. Didn't bother trying to walk it

Francis Bailey - Dec 05, 2024

I tried to use this road to access Pattison Peak, but there's a massive blockade + tank traps at the beginning

There appears to be a gate that closes at 3pm every day and all day on weekends. I did not bother to drive up given the sign.

Francis Bailey - Dec 05, 2024

Did not grab a photo but large blockades are in front of the bridge. I counted at least 3 in a staggered position

Francis Bailey - Nov 30, 2024

There’s still a gate at the start from the Nahatlatch side. Just noticed while passing by

Francis Bailey - Dec 01, 2024

Good condition to 21km as described by Kris. The first 4x4 section isn’t bad but there’s a worse one about 1km after and high clearance is a must. Aft...

Francis Bailey - Dec 01, 2024

Road is easily driven up to grizzly falls, but degrades a bit after. Just before the first switch back there’s a huge wash out with a bit of a crazy r...

There was no more road block at the 5km mark, but a rock truck was blocking the road around the 7.5km mark. There appears to be active blasting and ro...

A little overgrown in the meridian, but otherwise it could easily be driven to the end. Only about a small snow crust on the road at the moment.

Impassible from the beginning as there’s a huge barricade followed by another one 100m after. Around 700m up there’s a large landslide blocking the ro...

Snowy starting from the beginning this morning but by the evening only the last driveable km had snow. Road is otherwise in the same condition as Gavi...
