7/7/2025 Posted On: 7/7/2025 By: wwdonaldson Info: very accessible in a Chevy trailblazer. No clearance needed. Parking for about six cars. Plenty of extra space along the road though. No good place to camp | ||||
6/11/2025 Posted On: 6/12/2025 By: Tony1 Info: Road is drivable to the summer trailhead as of 6/11. No snow crossings. The rockfall is present but pushed to the side. | 1 |

6/4/2025 Posted On: 6/4/2025 By: peak576 Info: Road is clear to about 0.3 mi. before the summer trailhead --- rockfall at this point blocking most of the road width. Then at 0.1 before the summer TH there is snow across the road. | 1 |

5/16/2025 Posted On: 5/16/2025 By: andlours Info: Gate is open and you can drive a ways up before hitting snow. Road was melting out fast today. I bet the summer trailhead will be accessible in not all too much time. | 1 |

5/10/2025 Posted On: 5/12/2025 By: ccerling Info: Gate is still closed at the turnoff to 2B but there was no snow visible beyond the gate. Was able to easily drive CR2 to the end of the tailings ponds. From there, almost completely continuous snow on CR2 up to the summer trailhead. Skied Dyer Mountain off the summit almost all the way back to my truck. | ||||
3/31/2025 Posted On: 4/3/2025 By: Superstition_Nomad Info: Still closed at winter trail head. Good snowshoeing in to summer TH, with a small section blown down to dirt road. Camped here from 930p-4a before heading up to Mt. Sherman. | ||||
9/27/2024 Posted On: 9/27/2024 By: adil Info: We missed the turn off of CR2 to CR2B and came to a closed gate. We thought that this was CR2B and so instead continued on the 4WD road which was probably the scariest part of the whole day. Don't make our mistake: If you see the gate, you have possibly missed the left turn off of CR2 and onto CR2B. Google Maps will take you the wrong way, don't trust it! | 1 |

8/10/2024 Posted On: 8/10/2024 By: Jan van Tilburg Info: No problem getting to the trailhead. CR2 and CR2B are open. | ||||
8/5/2024 Posted On: 8/5/2024 By: Landy0 Info: As of today, CR2 is closed. CR2B is still open. | 1 |

6/25/2024 Posted On: 6/25/2024 By: mijoflynn Info: Lots of people at the TH today, so maybe this isn't news: the sinkhole on CR2 has been fixed and the road is open; no longer any need to use the alternate route to Iowa Gulch. | ||||
6/15/2024 Posted On: 6/15/2024 By: jts26 Info: Mostly snow free on the roads to TH, TH itself is clear. Note, CR 2 is still closed, but I took 2B and it was easily Subaru-able | ||||
5/23/2024 Posted On: 5/23/2024 By: screeman57 Info: CR 2 is closed at the Yak tunnel due to another subsidence in the road. But you can still access 2B by going east up 5th street (CR1). Drive .75 mi past the Mineral Belt bridge and take a right on 2A. After a mile you'll connect to CR2. 2B is about a other 2 miles up the road | 2 |

10/9/2023 Posted On: 10/9/2023 By: Kluge Info: Road is open all the way! 2B is a little rough and rocky but took it slow and made it fine in a Toyota Sienna with very little clearance. | 2 |
