JDCH Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) Does anyone know how close I can get to the trailhead? Is the road clear? I called the ranger station and no one answered... Thank you! Edited April 26, 2012 by JDCH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostgringo Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Now a month later, do you think it's safe to assume the road is open? Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt K Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Just got back from a weekend trip up Daniels. Road is open all the way to the trailhead. Have to cross Scatter Creek about 3 miles from the trailhead. It was deep in my opinion. A lot of vehicles made it, but a few small cars turned around. I have a little 2WD S-10 and didn't want to risk it, but also didn't want to turn around. So I just walked in. Scatter Creek was up to my knee and fast. Lots of melt going on up there. Snow line starts at the flats just below Squaw Lake. Have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPS Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I was one of the cars that turned around at Scatter Creek last weekend (Honda Civic). Saw a few Subarus and SUVs go by fine. The water looked to be about 2.5 feet deep with a pretty steep incline on the far side. In general, the road on the way in is in pretty poor shape almost all the way through but is certainly passable until that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine et Posted July 6, 2012 Share Posted July 6, 2012 ...yup Subaru got through just fine. Freaked the wife out with water coming over the hood, but that was mostly because we went in a little hot. If you ease your way in, shouldn't be bad. When we left on the afternoon of the 4th there were a bunch of cars in the lot... some small sedans.

Daniel B Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 Has anybody been up here in the last week? How's the crossing of Scatter Creek? Thank you, Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
