Smooth sailing to ~km 9 and the turnoff to the Frozen FSR.

Steven Noel - Aug 11, 2024

Bridge is severely burned at 38.75, blocking all motorized traffic except maybe a bold dirtbike from making it to the northeast side.

Steven Noel - May 21, 2025

Good condition lower down. Road becomes increasingly grown in with overhanging alders in upper section, expect paint damage. Turned around at an unbri...

Steven Noel - May 14, 2023

Drove to ~km 37. Previously noted washout is at km 30.5km rather than km33. Beyond the washout (crossed in a stock AWD SUV with some difficulty) the r...

Designated non-motorized from the junction.

Designated non-motorized from the junction. Bridge is missing over Kishinena Creek.

Steven Noel - Aug 19, 2024

Hiked up this road from the Kishinena. Could maybe push a vehicle over the initial barricade at the junction, but the road quickly deteriorates to a w...

Didn't travel this one, but the bridge out on the Kishinena blocks your access to it. Looked okay from the junction.

Hiked down this road with a chainsaw and cleared ~1500 logs to make it mountain bike passable.

Hiked down this ancient road with a chainsaw to make it mountain bike passable.

Steven Noel - May 24, 2025

Hike the road from km 3-5. Extensive blowdown. Cannot comment above or below those kms, but suspect the same.

Steven Noel - Oct 31, 2021

Good condition to km 4.5. Cannot comment above.

Steven Noel - Jul 02, 2024

Road remains in about the same condition as Greg Jones reported. Easy going with moderate clearance to the removed bridge, which is signed ATVs only b...

Steven Noel - Sep 28, 2024

Of note, this road might benefit from subdividing into segments as its conditions (and name) varies considerably. Most access comes via the Lodgepole/...

Steven Noel - Aug 12, 2024

Drove east to west from the Upper Flathead. Initial crossing of Squall Creek required a modest ford with a fairly steep but short exit on the west sid...

Steven Noel - Aug 12, 2024

A couple modest rougher spots but most any vehicle could make it to Frozen Lake.

Steven Noel - Aug 11, 2024

Drove to near road end (~km 9) in a stock AWD SUV. Bridge over Commerce Creek at ~km 1 is removed and required a modest ford that might be trickier in...

Good shape, fast travel. Of note, after the junction with the McLatchie FSR (km ~26.5) the name changes to Harvey FSR,

RD 100.110

Sections of substantial road-wide alders.

Mean alders. Hard going on foot.

RD 100.111

Need a dozer to get through the 20' alders. Less than 500m an hour on foot.

Steven Noel - Jul 08, 2024

Mountain biked the road after canoeing across to km23.5. Active use and freshly graded. One modest ford.

Steven Noel - Jul 08, 2024

Launched a canoe from road's end. The last few hundred meters get rougher and look like they could be pretty soft if it was wet.

Road is in good condition, but some of the surface rocks are sharp--we got a flat.

First km was good to where I parked. Walked the next 700m or so which is increasingly grown in and has some rocky debris that would benefit from clear...

Steven Noel - Jul 15, 2024

Drove the road to its end at the large drill site visible from satellite in a pair of stock SUVs. The reported slope failure at the start appears to ...

Steven Noel - Jun 24, 2024

Took this road to its junction with a south trending spur. Easy travel conditions—2wd friendly for the section I drove.

Steven Noel - Jun 02, 2024

Drove via the Leech FSR . A few washouts are starting, fine in a stock SUV for now but only a major storm away from being challenging.

Steven Noel - Jun 02, 2024

Good shape to the 1700m landing in a stock SUV via the Fir FSR (not digitized). A ton of spurs on these slopes so satellite imagery is helpful in gett...

Steven Noel - Jun 02, 2024

Road is in good shape EXCEPT for the bridge being removed at 100.5km. Road is foot access only with a challenging ford from there--may be impassable i...
