Road Bulletins
The km 6.3 washout has been cleaned up some but still presents a rocky ford. From there easy travel to the major washout at km 11.5.
Impassible washout at km 6. This leaves 19 km of biking to the end of the road with multiple up to knee-deep but safe creek crossings and bike carries. The creek has merged with the road in some areas. Bring extra shoes. A quad could make it to the end of the road, and there were fresh tracks to prove it.
Good condition to the major washout at ~11.5km. Major washouts at 11.5 and beyond render it impassable beyond this point, we continued by mountain bike with significant carrying before turning up the Icefall Brook FSR.
