Road Bulletins

Perfect condition. Snow is long gone even at the pass.

Steve Ansell - May 02, 2026

Good condition & well maintained. Just a little steep and loose at both ends if you had 2WD, but should be fine.

Steve Ansell - May 02, 2026

Good 4WD condition most of the way, with a water crossing just after 8km. Completely blocked by rock fall on both sides of the major creek at 13km.

Road is generally rough, lots of cross ditches aswell as rocky sections. Significant washout at 4km. Made it in a xterra but was difficult. Rest of ro...

This road is usually kept in good condition to the rec site. Did it in a Tacoma, but passable in most vehicles when the snow melts

Greg Jones - Jul 03, 2025

Very poor. Water has carved craters into the road 2-3 feet deep in some areas. It’s quite insane. Plus fallen trees across road probably around 2.5km...

Keenen Wiens - May 07, 2026

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.

Paul Lezica - May 05, 2026

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

Paul Lezica - May 05, 2026

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

Louise Pick - May 03, 2026

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...

Louise Pick - May 03, 2026

Gate closed on Sunday May 3, 2026.

Nathan Hildebrand - May 04, 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...

William Shi - May 03, 2026

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

Tanja Schnabel - May 03, 2026

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...

Bob Jones - Apr 25, 2026

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

Thomas Cheney - May 03, 2026

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

David Haynes - May 03, 2026

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...

Anton Gerasimov - May 02, 2026

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.

Paul Lezica - Apr 30, 2026

Reasonably good condition for 2WD.

Paul Lezica - Apr 30, 2026

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

Paul Lezica - Apr 30, 2026

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...

Kelly Wilson - Apr 27, 2026

In good shape to Breakenridge spur.

Kelly Wilson - Apr 27, 2026

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