Im looking to check out Corte and was wondering if my front wheel drive Honda CRV will make it up los pinos road? has anyone been recently and how long of a portion is in bad shape? I feel pretty confident in my off road abilities with the car

I was there a 2 weeks ago with a friend. His 2wd suzuki gran vitara made it just fine. The top section after you drop down from the fire lookout is in the worst shape. I normally walk from the lower trailhead, if you are in 2wd car the driving takes just as long as the extra approach. I hear it can get pretty messy after it rains and that area is on flash flood watch right now, so maybe give it a few days or walk the upper part before committing to the descent.

It's hard to say 'yes' definitively but, combined with the fact that you are comfortable off road-ing, I'd say you have a good chance of making it.
