Road Bulletins
The boulder is still there and I'm not sure it is moveable without heavy machinery. It must weigh several tons. That being said, you CAN drive around it if you are confident driving off camber on a sand embankment with loose boulders overhead, so I would not classify this point as "impassable", nor does it require a specialized vehicle. It's a bit sketchy and you need to be confident, but it's totally doable, and I managed fine in my Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk.
Beyond the boulder the road necessitates excellent ground clearance as the cross ditches are gigantic, some of the biggest I've driven. There must be 50+ cross ditches along the entire length of the road, many of which are aggressive. I wouldn't even consider taking an SUV on this road, it makes the Cheam FSR look easy. I parked at roads end (1,400m elevation). You could continue further onto EM300, but the cross ditches were getting so big I decided to just park and hike the last bit.

Road is in good condition until the 2.7km (from hwy) where you will hit the first water bar - youll want decent clearance and awd at least. Our stock 05 jimmy 4wd scraped the hitch a few times. At 3.8km (from hwy) there is a large bolder blocking the road - very small vehicles may be able to drive around to the left however the sand wall that you would have to go up on is instable and has more bolders above it. There are a couple more smaller bolders on the road over the next 500 ish meters. Otherwise the FSR is in great shape other then the 5 million water bars. Most of which are smaller with the first big one around 8 km (from hwy). Atvs/bikes will have no problem getting around the bolder and getting to the end of the fsr.
If someone has a big truck with a strong winch it would be amazing if they could pull the bolders out of the way!!

Probably good past 3km as well but snowed turned up as around. That seems to be the theme this time of year ;)
Near to 80 heavy waterbars have been added recently from approximately 1k onward to the impasse. Some of the deeper water bars were challenging in a lifted, high clearance 4x4. Loose + rough in spots.
Road is in good condition up until the deactivation/ impasse @ the junction at 9.5km. Suitable for a 2wd with some clearance. There are 2 shallow cross ditches @ 0km and 5km.
