The unusual weather this winter has left the plowed roads bare, icy or slushy.

The road from the Blue Gate to the parking area is the worst.

Aspen just above the Blue Gate. This is solid ice, chains recommended if your pulling a trailer

The barricades are still up.

The barricades are in place for 2 main reasons:

#1, Safety, ruts created by vehicle traffic cause accidents trying to negotiate the deep ruts.

#2, Protecting your investment in road improvements. $35,000 was spent in 2014, getting stuck and messing up the roads is counter productive.

The strange weather this winter has put us into the Tweens season already, slush mud and very soft snow conditions.

PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE VEHICLES BEYON THE BARRICADS.

Check out the damage created by one individual.

I will be using the back hoe this morning to clean up the debris and smooth out the ruts.

Enjoy the weekend, the weather is going to be gorgeous.

Roads:

The barricades are up, do not drive vehicles beyond the barricades.

All roads are snow packed with the exceptions of Yellow Pine, portions of Foothill and the hill on Alpine just above Pine Hill.

I have been doing rounds on the 4 wheeler for weeks, but if you get off the packed roads you will find snow depths from 6 to 14 inches depending on elevation. There is enough snow to ride snowmobiles but not much loose snow to cool your track and engine.

Please stay on the roads inside of the association. If you leave the road you are Trespassing.

The warm temperature have left the plowed roads very icy. Use caution when approaching the Green Gate, it is very slick.
