Roadway: Narrow single lane road in decent shape but rough and with debris in others - as of 2019, the last few hundred yards were closed to motor vehicles.
Traffic: Minimal to none.
If you are heading down the backside to Cazadero, you will need to forge a creek on the way - unless there have been recent storms, this is manageable, but just a heads up.
