Passable Caution / Snow Nov 9, 2026

Drove Hurley River FSR (Pemberton to Gold Bridge Pass) yesterday. Radio callouts on RR-12 / 150.410 MHz were active. Waterbars above mid-mountain are deep—definitely air down at the staging coordinates.

Snowline: 1,350 m Mud / Water: Hub-deep in shaded creek draws; bridges intact

Aired down to 18 PSI at the staging pullout (`50.542, -122.961`). Surface held up well despite recent rain—keep radio open on RR-12 / 150.410 MHz.

Did you notice any fresh blowdown or washout ruts around the high point (1480m)? Planning a dual-sport run this Saturday.

Saw two small alders cleared near the switchbacks last weekend—totally passable on bikes and full-size rigs right now. Pack a folding saw just in case wind picks up.
