Any recent beta for conditions for a rental car getting to the parking for Sheepshead?

Thanks!

I doubt it will be a problem.  Middle march road is in good shape and the last time I was on the stronghold road it was reasonable to sheepshead.  Worst case you have to walk an extra mile but I doubt you will have too.

Go left around the water tower to avoid the one slightly rutted part of the road if you have a really low car

The road is good to sheepshead, and I've taken a Honda civic as far as sweet rock without issues. After that, not so sure

No rental vehicles were harmed in this ascent.

Any updates on the Road conditions after the latest rain ?
