A little overgrown but no water bars and the road bed is in great shape. We only drove the first km or so but then walked back from 7km on foot

Backroad Status reported on: Oct 20, 2024
According to Brian S. the upper reaches of this road are no longer accessible. An avalanche path has washed out the road at kilometer 7 and the bridge has been pulled at the 9.75km mark. The creek is apparently very challenging to ford during summer time glacial melt off. Beyond the bridge there is thick alder.
