5/30/2026 Posted On: 5/30/2026 By: Kiefer Info: Campground in pretty good shape and open for the season. Bathrooms are the cleanest I've ever seen. For a weekend, it was ODDLY empty. Moose in area too! | ||||
12/22/2023 Posted On: 12/23/2023 By: shapovalovm Info: Road is well plowed, almost entirely dry and is accessible by any car. You can bring your Lambo if you have one. The campground is not plowed and probably has 5-7 inches of snow on the ground. If you have a car with enough clearance you can probably park inside the campground. I didn't want to risk it in my ultra all-terrain vehicle (Accord) and parked outside. | ||||
11/27/2023 Posted On: 11/28/2023 By: Eagle Eye Info: The gate and the campsites loop road are still open/drivable. | ||||
12/22/2021 Posted On: 12/23/2021 By: Eagle Eye Info: The main road CR 30 is very well plowed. Someone dug through a snowplow snowbank at the bridge entrance to Mill Creek TH (campgrounds area) allowing passage. The loop road through the many campgrounds is driveable but has not been plowed/is in deep drifts of snow. | ||||
4/17/2021 Posted On: 4/18/2021 By: BillShatner Info: Dry all the way to the TH. Great condition, even for 2wd. | ||||
1/4/2021 Posted On: 1/5/2021 By: JtheChemE Info: Road was plowed and mostly snowpacked, with just a few icy sections. Currently any car can make it to Mill Creek, and on to Cataract. The Mill Creek gated pulloff has space for 3-4 cars. | ||||
12/14/2020 Posted On: 12/14/2020 By: Squirrellysquirrel Info: Plowed, yet snow covered, accessible with AWD/FWD. Extensive powder exists off-road and is akin to quicksand. Mill Creek Campground is closed, but can part at the gate to access TH. | ||||
11/17/2020 Posted On: 11/17/2020 By: Squirrellysquirrel Info: Potentially icy conditions in the morning, accessible for 2WD. | ||||
3/3/2020 Posted On: 3/4/2020 By: angelmagnet1 Info: TH is accessible to any 2WD vehicle. Last 7 miles is dirt and the final 3.5Mi have patches of ice on the road but its wide and flat with no steep sections. Parking space limited to 3 or 4 vehicles. | ||||
2/29/2020 Posted On: 3/1/2020 By: supranihilest Info: The road is plowed past the Mill Creek Campground all the way to Cataract Gulch. There's patches of ice, snow, and mud on the road but I had no trouble in a Civic. The small parking lot at the campground is dry and can hold 3-5 vehicles. | ||||
2/1/2020 Posted On: 2/1/2020 By: Kiefer Info: Mill Creek Road (FSR 637) is plowed to the water treatment plant/ponds. It's about 1.5 miles. Beware though, there are EXTREMELY icy sections on this road. As we found out, the entire vehicle will slide. There's room for perhaps 4-5 vehicles at the top of the road (treatment ponds). And a huge ice flow at the parking lot for good measure. | ||||
5/25/2019 Posted On: 5/25/2019 By: WildWanderer Info: Easy 2wd access to the trailhead. I just drove around the campground and not one spot was taken. I stayed at the Williams Creek Campground where I was the only one there. I talked to the camp host: I was their first camper this year. People are afraid you cant access the trailheads and that the citys going to flood. County Road 30 is open 11 miles in: a mile past the Mill Creek Campground. The host told me this area is in no danger of flooding. The city looks like a ghost town over Memorial Day weekend. Please consider a trip here... and buy gas and lunch as well: they depend on tourism and this years avalanches are going to hurt their economy. | ||||
3/31/2019 Posted On: 3/31/2019 By: Aphelion Info: Road to the trailhead is gated off and closed to all vehicle/foot traffic, due to uncleared avalanche debris and lingering avy danger. | 1 |
