6/6/2015 Posted On: 6/8/2015 By: WillRobnett Info: McCullough Gulch (851) Road has manageable snow drifts up to 1.1 miles from the Quandary summer TH. Deeper/tracked snow drifts continue further. | ||||
5/11/2015 Posted On: 5/18/2015 By: WillRobnett Info: Snow covered at the entrance of the road. Some dry patches at the beginning as I passed Quandary's lower standard route | ||||

11/5/2010 Posted On: 11/6/2010 By: Faust Info: Some ice and snow on the road but still good for most cars. Hard packed snow on 75% of the trail, brought snowshoes but not needed. Brought poles which were a huge help. | ||||
5/28/2010 Posted On: 5/31/2010 By: tmathews Info: Wet, but clearable to the gate at the end. There were a couple of small snow drifts in the road. Adventurous people in cars can probably make it. The road will likely be snow-free by mid-week in the first week of June 2010. | ||||
1/16/2010 Posted On: 1/17/2010 By: RestlessLegSyndrome Info: The trailhead is in fact closed for the winter. Parking at the Quandary Peak TH adds approximately 4 miles round trip (I think), but the road is well packed down, which would allow for easy hiking or snowmobiling to the TH. | ||||
