Silver Creek/Grizzly Gulch Trailhead

Post by 1brokedad »

I'm planning to hike Redcloud and Sunshine peak middle of October. Does anyone know when the road to the Silver Creek/Grizzly Gulch trailhead closes, or does it close for winter?

You can look and see when people said it was closed in previous years.

The Grizzly Gulch trailhead does close in the winter (the closure is at the CR 30/CR 35 junction, many miles away from the trailhead) but the closure date is not set in stone. It depends on snowfall dates and amounts and usually closes October to early November.
