Road Bulletins
No major washouts on this road, just some cross ditches to go though. Most are quite small, but some steeper ones closer to the top. I scraped the hitch on 2 with my 19* departure angle and being careless. Something like a rav4 should be no problem. Road was super dry and dusty and clear of snow. Quite popular with dirt bikes so something to be mindful of. Road partially blocked at the junction with LE12000 or 12.25km.
No gate, snow from 1200m, about 2km from Church Mountain trial head.
Drove all the way to the Liumchen East 12000 spur just fine in a 4x4 with reasonable clearance (Jeep Cherokee). Lots of cross ditches but nothing huge, no gate that we saw. Snow stopped us going further but we did hike the spur and I saw nothing that would stop you reaching the end once the snow is gone. Doesn't require 4x4 but high clearance would be nice, an SUV may scrape at times
The gate is gone but there are over 40 cross ditches now. Ice/snow started to appear on the road above 1000m, and we parked at 1200m (with 4x4) since the snow got kinda deep. With chains you could maybe drive all the way to 1450m as long as there isn't much new snow.
I was able to drive up to the 1040m mark before hitting a newly installed gate. A party had just been up there a week before and reported no gate, so this was a very recent addition. After walking further up the road we found heavy equipment that appeared to be restarting logging operations.
