The gate to kite lake is still closed for the season. The road leading up to it was snowed in about a quarter mile ahead. On my way out, I noticed the mining company had blocked any access past their premises, so parking further up the road may be necessary. Flotation was helpful between kite lake and the car once the snow had softened. Beyond this point though, regular traction should sufficed as almost all of the snow had melted away by the time I was done.

Are you saying the mine people had simply blocked off parking and pull-offs near their mine? How much parking did you find at or just below the public gate?
Thanks!

When I was up there recently the mine was open. Nothing was "blocked" but there was a massive snow berm from them plowing to the turn/gate for the mine. This is a moot point as past that there was too much snow to drive to the FS gate, even without the snow moved by their loader. There was a trailer across the road from the metal shed with the portapotty out front. I parked on a a pull off right before the "Entering Private Lands" sign, adding 1.75miles, 1 way, to the lake.
