Status Update
Unable to make it to the trailhead in a low clearance 2wd (Honda Civic). There is a stream that crosses the road approximately 1.8 miles after the turn off Kite Lake road. It has gouged a wide dip in the road and there was a good amount of running water in early July. Even without the water, I believe high clearance is needed to reach the TH and that this is no longer a 2wd TH. Space is available to pull off before the dip, and this adds nearly an extra mile each way to the hike up Bross's east slopes.
