Road Bulletins
Road is in decent shape. Near the start is a small water bar (or just a depression dug in for non-drainage reasons) that is liable to crunch a bumper for a sedan or smth
In the last couple kms is a muddy section which you'll want crossover clearance for (decently deep ruts for a few metres), but I expect that will get better once the snowmelt is gone and things flatten out from traffic.
A couple small snow patches but nothing deep that posed an issue in the morning or afternoon

[From Ron Tse] - three cars were with us, two cars got stuck about 3km from trailhead. Only one car made it to the end. Still lots of snow.

Snow starting at 5km from intersection with Mamquam as per 4weeldrive association post
[From Dylan Aaron] - Went to watersprite over the weekend. Road is very snowy (60+ CMS) but we were able to get out with chains in a forester. Parked about 2.5 kms from the trailhead at the skookum generating station.
The road leading to the Watersprite summer route's trailhead has suffered a washout 2km before reaching the trailhead.
