parapluie Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Does anyone know how much of the road is now melted out? How far can you drive? thanks! Quote
PeterC Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 There's been some activity up that way posted on turns-all-year.com. Doesn't sound like it's very drivable yet. Check http://www.turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/trip_reports/index.php?topic=4667.0 Quote
Kat_Roslyn Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 a week and a half ago you could drive 7 miles to long's pass TH, snows' melted real fast though since. Quote
Zach Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 The weekend of the third you could drive to within 4-5 miles of the Ingalls Creek trailhead. You could get farther if you had a burly 4WD. There was more than a foot of snow on the road after that. Quote

chucK Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 Anybody been up the Teanaway River Road yet? Â That is, anybody have any information about whether or not one can drive to the Long's Pass TH? Quote
underworld Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 i've been told it is passable w/ high clearance 4x4. going there tomorrow morning, so i HOPE that's the case. Quote
Dan_Miller Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 I was there skiing on Tuesday, 5/30. Was able to go through the only real snow patch on the road with my GMC Jimmy in 4WD and make it to the road end parking area. Â If you can't get through that one spot expect a road walk of 2.2 miles. Hope that helps! Quote
JoshK Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 Dan, what is the snowpack looking like? My back up plan for next week was to head up to the Stafford Creek drainage and ski Navaho and Earl. Â -josh Quote
Dan_Miller Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 Josh, Melting fast. Those south facing slopes between the road end and Long's, Ingall's pass are dwindling rapidly. Because of intermittent snow I carried the skis for about 800 to 900 feet of elevation before skinning up. The north and east facing slopes; as one might expect, have great coverage as of last tuesday anyway. Skiing around Ingall's lake and above is a hot tip right now. Quote
chucK Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Road is totally open now (no 4WD or high clearance required). Quote
