5/29/2015 Posted On: 6/3/2015 By: mcklarry Info: Although there has been a lot of snow in May, the road from Buena Vista to Harvard Lakes is clear. Most two wheel drive cars can make the trip. The last mile has a so some rocks but not large | ||||
4/12/2015 Posted On: 4/13/2015 By: robinbk Info: The road is open and essentially dry all the way to Harvard Lakes and Silver Lake trailheads. | ||||
2/13/2015 Posted On: 2/14/2015 By: Daniel Joder Info: The road to the winter closure was icy, muddy, or slushy depending on the hour. Recommend AWD or 4WD just to be sure. This closure is a solid mile below the summer trailhead, so figure that in to your total distance. There was room to park maybe up to five vehicles at this closure. Since there are homes right next to this parking area, I am sure it gets plowed regularly. I didn‘t see any private property issues about parking here. | ||||
8/16/2014 Posted On: 8/16/2014 By: nataliegarro Info: The dirt road leading to the trailhead is in great condition! Made it up in my Infiniti I-35 with no problem. | ||||
6/22/2014 Posted On: 6/25/2014 By: Holmoose Info: Trailhead is easily accessible in a 2WD car. I can‘t see why any vehicle short of a sports car would have any difficulty on this mildly rough dirt road. | ||||
5/12/2013 Posted On: 5/13/2013 By: metalmountain Info: Road is completely dry to the Harvard Lakes TH, and I would assume all the way to the end of the road as well. | ||||
2/7/2013 Posted On: 2/8/2013 By: semitrueskerm Info: Okay, as of 2/7/2013, you can drive up to the furthest road accessible parking area, which is about 1.5 miles short of the Harvard Lakes TH. Very little snow, some ice. Kind of annoying, however, that they‘ve barricaded the road past this point. Yesterday, that 1.5 mile walk could have easily been driven if the barricade was not there. | ||||
7/18/2012 Posted On: 7/18/2012 By: CDR242 Info: Clear the whole way - except for all the cars at the TH parking area. | ||||
3/30/2012 Posted On: 3/31/2012 By: PedroCO Info: FR 365 is clear - a few tiny patches of snow left. We had a 4WD truck, but pretty sure any 2WD could make it all teh way to the trailhead. | ||||
3/4/2012 Posted On: 3/5/2012 By: Dad Mike Info: I was able to get to within 6/10ths of a mile in my Wrangler on Sunday. | 1 |

2/11/2012 Posted On: 2/12/2012 By: Yikes Info: Drivable to TH with 4wd but tricky driving. There was a lot of snow on the road and it trys to pull you off the road. Bring a shovel in case you end in the ditch. Had to dig out one vehicle which high centerd in the snow. | ||||
11/9/2011 Posted On: 11/10/2011 By: dehrlich101 Info: The road is covered with snow but is packed down enough to drive past this point if you have a 4x4 or all wheel drive. I‘m not sure if you can get all the way to the main Harvard and Columbia trail head but you can get close enough it wouldn‘t be a huge hike. | ||||
4/27/2010 Posted On: 4/27/2010 By: BillMiddlebrook Info: Decent clearance and 2WD will now get you to the TH |
