Closed Gate
I assume the gate was closed due to the recent winter storm. According to the sign it should be open and only has an hour time difference for its seasonal hours. Up until this point (starting from north side) it was all residential/private drive ways on a paved/snow plowed road, with 3 pull off points and multiple hiking trails (Red Canyon Open Space, Bear Creek Trail, etc.) no overnight camping. Passed a few cyclists while on it as well so take it slow.
