Conditions on the Hurley have reached that point where you may or may not make it over!\u00a0\u00a0 Travel is not recommended for most drivers and be prepared for self rescue if you do attempt to drive.\u00a0 Alternate access to the valley is via Lillooet and Road 40.\u00a0 Update:\u00a0 Heavy snow fell to the valley bottom Tuesday night and the Hurley is probably closed for the season now.<\/p>\n
Thanks to Sue for the latest update:<\/p>\n
Went over Hurley yesterday afternoon (Monday).
\nPassed two trucks going the other way within 5km of Gold Bridge \u2013 so thought I would be in good shape.\u00a0 In the jeep with 4×4 and good winter tires.
\nBy the time I got within a couple of km of summit the tracks of the trucks were covered by snow.\u00a0 I got stuck 300m from summit and had to chain up two tires.\u00a0 Made it over but saw that someone else had turned around about 300m from the summit on the other side.\u00a0 It was dumping up there at 4.30 pm.<\/p>\n
Drivers should be prepared for all driving conditions.\u00a0 Winter driving skills, 4 x4, chains and good snow tires are essential for travel at this time of the year.\u00a0 A survival\/safety kit are good things to carry in your truck.\u00a0\u00a0 Conditions can change fast at anytime up there with the fluctuating temperatures & weather.\u00a0 Current conditions may not be reported on this site.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This site is user updated so if you have conditions to report please email info@bridgerivervalley.ca<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
