Drove from end to 9 km bridge. Good condition with some pretty bad pothole sections same as previous years.

Bridge washout has 4x4 HC bypass beside bridge. Essentially have to drive on creek bed a little. A few rocks look too big for my Pilot, so didn't attempt. Saw a post that a Rivian made it. Cement blocks on bridge have been moved and bridge is dirt bike passable.

Talked to 2 guys on bikes there and they think the bridge may be repaired next Spring.

Drove in from both sides. The usual good condition with some potholes. The washout at 13 km has been fixed, but there's a giant boulder at 12.5 km that's hanging above the road by a thread. Barely any soil beneath it. Bridge at 9 km still impassable.

On this day I only drove from KM 0 to Foley Creek FSR or 2KM. The road is in good condition in this section with only some small potholes to dodge. As for the rest of the road I had driven KM20 - KM 16 on February 16 2024 in a BMW 3 Series without any problems. I can't comment on the road KM2-KM16.

Good condition all the way. Best to drive in a SxS or 4WD, though. Started at Army FSR and went east UP TO Chipmunk Campground.
