Post has been updated with a photo of the summit taken on Monday.\u00a0 Thanks to Mark from NSMBA.ca<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 for the photo.<\/p>\n

The Hurley is close to opening, however it is not officially open as yet.\u00a0\u00a0 Backcountry Snowcats<\/a> have spent time, fuel, wear and tear on their snow cat to do some work in the road from just south of the summit to the Face Mt turnoff.\u00a0 They have removed 5 feet of snow from the centre of the road and the\u00a0 road is now down to the ice layer.\u00a0 However, 30 cm of snow has fallen since this was done.\u00a0 Warm spring days\u00a0 have arrived but the nights have still been cool.\u00a0 They are advising that travel is not recommended without a shovel, good winter tires, 4×4, and chains. Some vehicles have made it through but they have also towed 2 vehicles that were stuck.\u00a0 Thanks to Kathy for this update!<\/p>\n

If you appreciate the work that they have done to speed up the opening you can make a donation towards fuel\u00a0 at Sally’s Pub.\u00a0 We definitely appreciate the work that Reg and Kathy from Backcountry Snowcats do on the Hurley all winter with the grooming of the road and the updates that they provide so please show your appreciation!<\/p>\n

Opening updates will be posted as they come in.<\/p>\n
