Gleason FSR washout blocks access

A June 2026 source update reports a complete washout around Gleason FSR kilometre 2, with the creek flowing through the road. The older July 2023 description of vehicle access to kilometre 17.5 is superseded; no reopening was established.

Reports describe the cited dates. An expected reopening date does not establish reopened access.

A track start is evidence of where recording began, not certification of parking, legal access, road suitability or the complete route. The Ramblers reports a Gleason FSR washout near2km in June2026; this2025 recorded start must not imply the road is now passable.
