Posted By: brerrabbit Info: Clear to the dam although the 4WD trailhead starts before the end of the road if you are attempting Savage. There’s a fair bit of puddles although they are not very deep and I didn’t see any hidden significant rocks in the puddles. A subaru outback made it to the 4WD TH without difficulty with care in just a few spots. |

Posted By: brerrabbit Info: Snow starting ~0.4 miles into the turnoff from US 24 onto Homestake road. There were tire tracks in the snow but since there were ~7.5 miles left just to the turnoff for Missouri Creek Road we decided to switch to a secondary objective. |

Posted By: Wildernessjane Info: We were able to get 1.1 miles up the 4WD road. I think with the warm weather someone could get all the way to the end of the road by now. There were about half a dozen pools of standing water 4-6 inches deep on the 4WD road. |

Posted By: BillMiddlebrook Info: Homestake (FS 703) road is open but the Missouri Lakes road is current blocked by snow after 1.3 miles from the Homestake junction. |

Posted By: BillMiddlebrook Info: Open and dry. Drove the extra 0.6 mile to the 4WD which shortens the approach by 1/2 mile. To avoid having to cross the creek on foot, we drove across and parked just below the trail intersection - no problem. |
