Big waterbars are still there and the road bed is chewed up in a few sections with loose rocks on steep inclines. Going to want 4x4 HC for this one. Lower gate was still open and then the gate around 4.1km was still open if going onto Weatherhead. Parked at 720m due to snow but looked driveable to Weatherhead once it melts.

The gate to Murdo Creek FSR doesn’t look like it’s been operational for a long time. Lots of waterbars up until Mt Saint Benedict trailhead, which is where we parked. We had a 4Runner and took it slow, and we seemed to manage fine. definitely this road requires a higher clearance vehicle. looks like someone recently left a bunch of trash on the side of the road.

Loose and steep. Used 4Low for one section

Went as far as McKay Lake trail. No water bars or washouts. Road is steep and a little loose in some spots but overall pretty much an easy drive with 4x4 and a little clearance. Saw a Tundra pick-up park at the trail later so depending on your ride should be able to make it in a pick up to McKay Lake.

Drove to the McKay Lake Trailhead. The road has no washouts or serious waterbars at least to that point. There are fairly steep and loose sections that could cause some headache in a 2wd pickup especially if the road is dry and loose. Anything 4WD or AWD with decent clearance and a bit of patience will have no problem.

[From Tareef Dedhar] - gate is still open and road could be driven with 2WD to the Murdo Peak cutblock area. Albeit it’s in rougher condition than Lost Creek

Road was in good condition for 4WD and we went as far as Branch 4100 up to Murdo Peak
