Best FSR condition ever. No gates, gravel, wide, minimal waterbars. Driveable until about 1000m making the ascent to Elliot about under 2.5km one way ...

I think I stumbled across this road while looking for a Britton bypass, and there was a very steep ATV looking trail which unfortunately appears to be...

There seemed to be a locked gate on this road indicating private property (closer to the lake). You can still access RPL44.

The attached photo seems to be the previously mentioned washout at around 7.5km. The road up until that point was still passable.

Many downed trees between branch and 0.5km, impassable. Need a chainsaw to clear

Washout at 7.5km is eroding further and becoming impassable, very steep walled on one side. Failed attempts with a Subaru Outback , had to turn around...

Gate closed on Sunday May 3, 2026.

Was great! Had a nice drive up the freshly graded road and camped the night. Almost no traffic and the site was all clean! It is very dusty though so ...

This road condition is better than the lower branch (RUT36-1), but to reach this branch you need to make it up the heavily degraded RUT36-1 anyway.

Large Fallen rocks on the road. 4x4 High Clearance Mandatory. Judging by the condition I don't think Subaru-type AWD vehicles can make it up this road...

Snow free until 1120m elevation. Didn’t drive further.
Overall good condition except short rough stretch of creek running on road.

Road is now passable for any vehicle all the way to Ross Lake (last 1.5km is gated as the campground was still closed for the season so it is not poss...

Gate still there, road has a decent amount of Shot Rock

Major slide at Klaskino KM 14 and another one at km 33 making this entire section impassible

Drove to 1180m elevation in a Tacoma. The road is completely snow free now. We could have driven to the very end (another ~200 m distance from where w...

Road is passable in 2wd with care during dry conditions. The road is sandy, rutted in places. Bridge is in good condition. Watch for large rocks on th...

Seems to have been deactivated a long time ago and there was debris and downed trees in some places, but could still make it through no problem.

Reasonably good condition for 2WD.

Reasonably decent condition road. It ends at a locked gate so it doesn't seem like there is open access to Mellin Lake.

We drove as far as the clearing at 370 m. Very bushy and some small cross ditches but otherwise fine. Could have driven another 1+ kms to ~ 500 m befo...

In good shape to Breakenridge spur.

In great shape all the way to English Creek FSR. Some minor potholes.

In good condition at the time, driveable above 1100 m.
Chemainus Main is gated and only open weekends.

Road conditions have probably changed since, but was in excellent condition at the time. Super easy access to both Mt Brenton and Mt Hall.

The stretch from Lang Bay to the Spring Lake Main is in great condition, easily 2WD accessible. No logging activity or closures as of this post, but t...

Deep cross ditches the entire way, and progressively degrades as you move up. Very steep and loose, with lots of large sharp rocks and fallen debris o...

Small cross ditches all the way to where the road splits at ~2 km. Consistently very steep and loose.
Right branch (towards Alexandra) is signed as d...

Road starts in good condition, but then after the ~4km mark there's lots of fallen rock and boulders partially blocking the road. There was clearly ti...
