Winter road restrictions are in effect any time the winter restrictions sign is posted on the gate. During winter restrictions, only snow vehicles—such as snowmobiles, snow cats, and ATVs—are permitted on BSR roads. Cars, trucks, and 4-wheel drive vehicles are not permitted until restrictions are lifted.
As a reminder, large trucks and commercial vehicles are typically restricted for an additional 1-3 weeks after the winter restrictions are lifted (depending on weather). This is to prevent costly damage to the still-soft roads.
We are monitoring the weather, the remaining snow (before last night’s storm, all but areas around Little Dipper had melted off), and the road conditions in general with hopes of lifting the restriction within the next week or two.
Please check back here or on our Facebook page before assuming restrictions have been lifted.

Winter road restrictions are now in effect. The winter restrictions sign is posted on the gate and only snow vehicles are permitted on BSR roads. Cars, trucks, and 4-wheel drive vehicles are not permitted until restrictions are lifted in the Spring.
We’re on “borrowed time” now as far as good weather is concerned. A couple good snowstorms could easily require putting winter restrictions in place with very little notice.
Cabins should now be winterized.
With the pending snow storms, winter gate restrictions will be imposed when warranted by road conditions. Once imposed, the winter restrictions sign will be posted on the gate and only snow vehicles will be permitted on BSR roads. Cars, trucks, and 4-wheel drive vehicles will not be permitted until restrictions are lifted in the Spring.
Winter is upon BSR! Several inches of snow are forecast for tonight. Temperatures are dropping and we want to avoid frozen pipes which may lead to water leaks and/or property damage. Don’t forget to winterize your cabins before it is too late. To help with any potential issues, it is a good idea to shut off your water at the roadside valve marked by the blue-tipped T-post.
