I drove the road on the 27th and 30th and didn't see any accidents. On the 30th, on the way out, there was a truck stuck ahead of us for a few minutes. I didn't see why he got stuck but I assumed he just pulled too far onto the shoulder when another truck passed heading the other way. Someone ahead of us pushed them out and we all proceeded. No big deal. We saw a couple of FWS vehicles heading towards the trailhead around that same time. I commented to my climbing partners how they should be happy about all the users out having a good time thanks in part to the plowed road. There were fisherman, showshoers, skiers, snowmobilers, and climbers. Everyone looked happy to be out enjoying the area. I think the plowed road was really nice and safe. If they closed roads every time snowy conditions caused accidents we wouldn't be able to drive in Montana in the winter.
