3/28/2010 Posted On: 3/28/2010 By: Yikes Info: Road is dry up to mile 4.0. You might be able to make another 0.5 miles if your vehicle is good on packed snow/ice, but seems like a good chance of getting stuck. From mile 4.5 until Missouri Gulch TH it is packed down by snowmobiles and you don‘t need snowshoes. There are zero dry sections from mile 4.0, so I don‘t think this is going to melt out anytime soon. Outhouse at TH is open and has TP. You will need snowshoes starting at the TH (I was sinking past my knees). | ||||
2/6/2010 Posted On: 2/12/2010 By: Dancesatmoonrise Info: Three parties have got stuck in the snow in the last two weeks, about a mile past the ranch on 390. Plowed to the ranch, about 3 miles in. Folks have made it to 4 miles in, but have also got stuck there. I would park no further than 1/2 mile past the ranch, or just beyond the ranch to be on the safe side. One vehicle stuck was reputed to be a heavily modified Jeep. All were 4wd vehicles. Track looks benign, it‘s not. | ||||
2/1/2010 Posted On: 2/1/2010 By: SarahT Info: Drivable with 4WD to 3.1 miles from the trailhead. | ||||
11/29/2009 Posted On: 11/29/2009 By: reverette13 Info: Went to Missouri Gulch yesterday (11.28.09) in a 2WD, 4 cyl. XTerra (basically a car that looks like a truck) and made it with ease. Some icy spots, but no real difficulty at all. | ||||
11/23/2009 Posted On: 11/23/2009 By: CO Native Info: Trailhead is accessible by 2wd car with good tires. The road beyond the ranch is snowpacked, but easily driven. | ||||

5/20/2009 Posted On: 5/20/2009 By: Lyssah Info: 100% clear for all vehicles. Cars (even civics) have no trouble getting to trailhead. Snowshoes not needed for ANY of the standard route. | ||||

4/9/2009 Posted On: 4/9/2009 By: BillMiddlebrook Info: The road is clear to the trailhead. This may change if we get enough spring snow. | ||||
3/15/2009 Posted On: 3/15/2009 By: Bio Nerd Info: 2009-3-13 4WDable 0.8 mile past ranch entrance...shallow snow patches, mud. Perhaps further, but could see that someone got into trouble ahead, so turned around. | ||||
12/11/2008 Posted On: 12/11/2008 By: theocdb3 Info: As of 12/11 there is some snow but any reasonable vehicle should be able to make it to Missouri Gulch. | ||||

9/6/2008 Posted On: 9/6/2008 By: Derek Info: Be careful, 390 is washboard city... saw a vehicle lose control and they weren‘t even traveling too fast. | ||||
7/24/2008 Posted On: 7/24/2008 By: Markwise Info: Road very good to the large Missouri Gulch TH. Just a little bit of washboard along the south sides of the road. |
