Fourmile Trail to is clear to the Fourmile Falls, stream crossings aren't bad. Opal Lake Trail is clear to Opal Lake, stream crossings aren't bad. Weminuche Trail is clear at least 10 miles in, East Fork of the Weminuche Creek is running high but there is a log jam just downstream that will get you across with care. Divide Lakes is clear to the lake. West Fork Trail is clear until 4.5 miles, at which point the trail is buried under tremendous avalanche debris. Lower Treasure Trail is open from the East Fork Valley, but the upper trailhead is inaccessible since Wolf Creek Road is still closed.

Most Forest Service Roads are open with the exception of these high elevation roads: Black Mountain 661 (access Pagosa Peak) Buckles Lake 663 (access to Buckles Lake) Castle Creek 660 (access to Fish Creek Trail) Falls Creek 039 Nipple Mountain 665 (access to Quartz Lake via Little Blanco Trail) Mosca 631 (access to Sand Creek Trail) Wolf Creek 725 (access to Treasure Trail) Although the trailheads are accessible, you're likely to encounter snow drifts and deep swift water crossings on popular trails such as Opal Lake and Fourmile Falls. Trails below 9,000 feet have muddy spots, but should dry out fast with the predicted warm weather. The first few miles of the Williams Lake wilderness trailheads should be accessible, but trees haven't been cleared. The Turkey Springs Area is accessible and beautiful!
