The road is NOT closed 5 miles before the trailhead and it was in relatively great shape - hardly any potholes.
This hike is one of my favorites and this year's trip was exceptional, with a cobalt blue sky and lots of wildflowers in bloom. The only down-side was that the bugs were exceptional also, making it unpleasant to hang out and enjoy the stunning views of the Mountain (even stopping to take pictures, I felt rushed by the need to wave away mosquitoes).
