French's S Slopes is pretty much clear of snow. Some snow down on the road to the mine. No traction necessary.

Traverse to Frasco BM is mostly clear of snow as well. Few patches, but only a couple inches deep.

Didn't go over to Casco, but the ridge between Frasco/Casco looked pretty snowy.

Were you able to drive across that first creek crossing without issues?

No issues with driving across the first creek crossing, it is running pretty low right now. The road itself is clear of snow for at least the first 2-3 miles, and after that it is only a few inches of snow on the road. If you have a good 4wd with clearance you can probably make it to the 2nd creek crossing without issue.

There was a lifted Jeep Wrangler that made it all the way to the mine yesterday.

Jeep @ the mine? Wow.. That second crossing is pretty gnarly. I will be happy just to make it across the first crossing. Thanks!
