The trail is partially open, but only to Waypoint 2 at the yurts. Colorado Parks and Wildlife will open the road once conditions improve.

Snow still covers the upper part of this trail. The Colorado State Forest reports that it is open up to the Yurts for now.

Excellent trail and a ton of fun. Encountered trail runners who were completing a 32 mile trail run from Lake Agnes. Very courteous runners on the trail. The State Park was packed.

Trail was in great shape. There was still a couple snow drifts near the summit, but easy to get through. Camping is clearly the go to activity this summer as every campsite was filled in the state forest.

I visited the Colorado Stare Forest State Park to check on the road conditions for the season. The area has received some snow fall already this season and the Colorado DPW closed the roads on October 23 because of the snow. With the snowfall today and the snow fall expected over the next week, the roads in the park remain closed. I contacted the park's ranger who informed me that the trails were likely closed for the remainder of the season.

Montgomery Pass is open as raw as Waypoint 2, but snow will keep it closed beyond that until sometime in July.

This trail was challenging, but we made it to the top without an issue in my stock Tacoma. There are some rocky spots where you need to pick a good line. The trail ends at the tree line, and the top of the ridge is a short hike. I made in 30 minutes or so with my 2 and 4 year olds. On the way down I got to test out the crawl mode to help control speed over some loose rocks.

All trails in the Colorado State Forest are open for business! Warm weather has melted away the winter snowfall and the park officials has opened the trail for the season. During my visit, I did not happen across another vehicle on the trail. A weekend camping trip is coming soon.

A trip to check on the status of the Colorado State Forest trails found that most have been closed for the season by the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife. In the past couple of days, nearly a foot of snow has fallen in Gould, CO.

Although other trails in the Colorado State Forest are open, Montgomery Pass remains closed due to snow and resource protection. Forest Rangers advise that it could open in another few weeks.
