Lead King Basin Access?

Post by SES_17 »

Planning on hitting Snowmass west side in a couple of weeks but the last TH report (June 18) says road from Marble is blocked 3.7 miles from TH. Any update on this would be appreciated. Also, anyone have info on the road to Lead King from Crystal? I'm in an older Explorer with loads of 4WD experience and not afraid to get it dinged.

This is also a good site to use (for some trails): http://www.bushducks.com/tripreps/passopen.htm

"Lead King Basin - 6/19/16 - No, low road passed mill is open back to basin but upper pass is not open yet. Give it 2 weeks."
