There are 76 water bars on this road (basically one every 100m). I was able to easily drive to the end in a stock INEOS Grenadier (didn't need to even lock the centre differential). The only tricky water bar is number 32 which is a bit bigger and more side-hilly that the others. But I suspect anybody in a 4Runner (or equivalent) will have no issues, and a good driver in a RAV4 could probably do it.

Same conditions as in the previous report. We counted total ~55 waterbars including the Ault Lake Spur. They are deep but entry and exit are relatively smooth. Lightly scratched a few times when exiting with the hitch of our Tacoma. I do think that a skilled driver can make it in a RAV4 type AWD vehicle.

As previously reported - really good condition and smooth road other than the deep waterbars. We had a high clearance 4runner, and I personally don't think an SUV could make it.

Good condition besides the super deep waterbars. We came down this road from the green mountain road.

Drove up until the Ault Lake Spur and found 30+ water bars. Many of which were deep enough to drag the hitch on my Tacoma. The road bed in between the water bars is in great shape, but you will definitely need a high clearance 4WD or a short wheel base and some careful driving.
