Spring Access - White River

[John Gassel]

The road status page for the park says that the White River Road to the campground is scheduled to open May 28th. 

I'm hoping to do a climb about a week or so prior to that date.  What's the approach beta when the road is closed?  Does it usually open open up at the scheduled time?

White River opens when they say it will, typically Memorial Day weekend. The White River Road is gated at HWY 410, ~5.5 miles from the trail head. One can park at the gate and ride bikes to White River trail head.

At the moment, 410 is closed at the Crystal mountain road. Once the road is driveable, the bike approach becomes worthwhile.
