QUOTE (OkieJon @ Jun 14 2010, 12:27 PM)  Another image from above the river.The blurry blue to the north is just part of a program I have. One can see,they not only took alot of the river,but plenty more of the land. Google Earth is a general program for the Every Day Joe. Did you ever get the coordinates straightened out? If so get them to me. -------------------- Today's socio-political climate is rock solid proof that Adam and Eve weren't prospectors.
If they were they'd have eaten the snake instead of the apple and we'd still be in heaven.... |

I know this post is old but has anyone been there recently? Id like to know if the road is fixed. I was there in late September and the access from Wellsville was blocked with big boulders (near the bridge), so we went around the other way and across the creek from Howard. Was almost too much for my wife's subaru if not for my sick driving skills.
There was an old pissed off fella riding around on a quad and he was all worked up about it being blocked too. He said a jeep had slid off the road back near the bridge so the road was closed from that end. He was very irritated that he was blocked out haha. Id like to hit point bar this winter but it's a rough drive in from Howard, plus the extra miles around. If nothing else I will take a drive and see next time Im in Salida. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16

Fremont CR 45 is not open from Wellsville. The only access is through Howard at this time.
Not that many go there it seems. -------------------- Level 2 member -12/25/16

From what I read on the BLM web site, they plan to fix the flood damage at the north access road after the water levels fall this coming summer. In the mean time, a hand cart or dirt bike can you and your gear down there. There is a spot to park a few trucks just north of the blocked off point. I was there in late October and was the only one there at the time (except for my ever-patient wife of course). We walked in the mile of blocked road. There was plenty of evidence of other recent visitors: tire tracks, sample and dig holes, etc. I am happy to say there wasn't much trash or such in evidence. -------------------- www.findingGOLDinColorado.com - my website with info on where to dig and where to see Colorado's gold mining history.
