I went and scouted the trail today, Cleghorn is so fun after the winter storms! Some popular obstacles are a lot easier, but lots of water washed out a lot of the V-Notch obstacles! I entered from the east at lake silverswood and followed through to west side. thankfully it was open today, and I spoke to a firefighter at the west side gate who assured me it was okay that I followed through! The washout just after the popular electrical tower obstacle has gotten worse since February, I’ve added a photo for reference. I’m not sure how long this Cherokee has been off the side of the washout, but please be careful the dirt is very soft in this area!

I would like to clarify that the west side (via 15 cajon pass) is still officially closed per forest order. My apologies for any spamming.

There is a massive washout on the west side of the trail. You can enter and exit by the trails that are of the east side. See the below photo back in Feb; its much worse now
