*UPDATE* Feb. 2 Trona Wildrose Road and Panamint Valley Road are open. The destroyed section of Trona Wildrose Road that lie between the Ballarat turnoff and the Indian Ranch turnoffs has been cleared. This section of road is currently graded dirt with bypasses in place for traffic to get through while paving of the new roadbed takes place. Keep an eye out for men and machinery in the valley.

Update: 12/19/13
Westside Rd. is OPEN and in excellent condition thanks to our roads crew who have been working hard.
Warm Springs Canyon Rd. is in excellent condition for the first 2 miles and then turns into a high clearance road to the Warm Springs camp. High clearance 4x4 is recommended after that as the road is rough with medium sized rocks all the way to Butte Valley. The last 500 ft to geologist cabin is in rough condition with major washouts in the drive way.
