Hiline Rd (lower section) is closed for construction to all traffic / peds as of may 22. Should reopen in a few days according to the signs

The first gate on this road is currently closed so not usable for shuttling.

And the climb is not 500', more like 1600'
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
