Hey guys,

Does anyone know what the conditions of Lime Creek are currently (muddy / thawed out)? Has anyone climbed there this year yet or know if it's accessible via Rd400.

Thanks!

Probably not, to my knowledge that road should open june 1st, but i may be wrong. i climbed near carbondale this past weekend and it was totally dry.

don't
forget to go to the magic wood + endless wall. better yet start there it's a really cool unique atmosphere there and really classic looking lines on amazing limestone. I really liked the right side of the prow as well

no, but we've had snow the last two days here in Gunnison, so I can't imagine it would be dry up there. Taylor and Hartmans have been in good shape last week, though.

Has anyone been up to Lime Creek lately? I'm curious about the road accessibility/camping conditions. Thanks!

Gonna go check on Friday from the roaring fork side.

I'd guess it'll be very wet and should probably be left to dry till July.

I think that's also what the guide book authors suggested as well.

That's a normal year.

We still have something stupid like 15,000% more snowpack than normal for this time of year

I climbed at Lime Creek on July 3rd and had no problem getting there in a Subaru Forester.
