8/3/2013 Posted On: 8/5/2013 By: forbins_mtn Info: Yup. TH perfectly accessible but that damned goat family was right there when we pulled up. Luckily they had a youngster so they seemed a little stand offish...but watch out! | ||||
7/4/2013 Posted On: 7/16/2013 By: Guthrie Info: I would like to second the caution about the mountain goats. While parked there, some of the goats traversed across the hood and roof of my Xterra, leaving scratches and prints behind. Don‘t park any expensive vehicles here. :) | ||||
6/5/2013 Posted On: 6/5/2013 By: BobbyFinn Info: Still dry and clear to the gate about .5 miles from the dam. You may want to watch out for the goats... | 1 |

6/1/2013 Posted On: 6/2/2013 By: esagas Info: The road is dry and in excellent condition. It is still closed by a gate about 0.5 mi below the dam. There is plenty of parking at the closure. | ||||
5/26/2013 Posted On: 5/26/2013 By: aliciaf Info: Road passable to about half a mile below the dam. Some snow still lingering on the road today that made going farther not worth it, as well as a few patches of snow here and there from where we parked until the dam. | ||||
3/16/2013 Posted On: 3/17/2013 By: 2inspireumo Info: Road still blocked by large snowbank about quarter mile above quandary trailhead, south couloirs on quandary almost ready | ||||
12/31/2012 Posted On: 1/1/2013 By: mattdecoste Info: Road closed at the normal winter closure, 0.3 mile up from Highway 9. Road beyond was covered with 2-3 inches of dry snow (no ice) all the way to the dam with an occasional snowdrift 6-8 inches. Would be accessible by decent 4x4 vehicle if not closed at .3 miles. | ||||
11/14/2012 Posted On: 11/14/2012 By: BillMiddlebrook Info: Still open and road was dry. | ||||
6/30/2012 Posted On: 7/2/2012 By: deuce0277 Info: The conditions were great. The roads were pretty smooth and any 2WD car can make it. We drove all the way to the Dam on an Audi A4 2WD | ||||
5/19/2012 Posted On: 5/20/2012 By: ElFuegoDelaMuerte Info: Open all the way to the damn. | ||||
4/1/2012 Posted On: 4/2/2012 By: burnindaylight Info: Road open approximately 1.8miles from Highway 9 (past lower reservoir) before reaching deeper/off-camber snow that covers the road. There are a few small snow drifts to cross. There were Subaru‘s, a Honda CRV, a Ford Escape, a F-150, and my Xterra that made it this far. | ||||

12/2/2011 Posted On: 12/2/2011 By: geojed Info: Very accesible with 4WD, 2WD would probably even work. Packed snow for 1st 2/3, then gravel/dirt from lower blue lake up to dam. | ||||
10/22/2011 Posted On: 10/22/2011 By: nmg5038 Info: Blue Lakes is nearly snow free. Only like two very very small patches that have been run over many times. Everything else is snow free and relatively dry. | ||||
6/17/2011 Posted On: 6/17/2011 By: joelsteidl Info: The road is clear all the way to the dam. About .5 miles from the dam, there is a cable / gate across the road. There is plenty of parking before the gate and it‘s an easy (snow-free) walk to the dam. |
