The sunken section of Road 23 pictured in Jan 6 report has now slid down the hill, so the road is impassable at mile 4. Also, that large tree pictured on Jan 6 is still blocking at mile 3.7 plus one more shortly after. Other down trees cleared up to this point
I didn’t venture past the washout.

Would it be easy to walk around that washedout section of road? The east trailhead for White Chuck Bench is at mile 6 so that would be a 2.3 mile walk from the fallen tree.

Should be pretty easy, though the forest.

Another one bites the dust, sad, that one will never be fixed in my lifetime.

You are right about that! How long did it take them to fix the Index-Galena washout..?

I was out there today. Still accessible if you start at the west trailhead using FS22. Great quiet hike on a very soft trail!
