The road out to Pebble, Muscle, Dip, etc was closed last weekend. That doesn't affect Long Wall or Fortress. Emerald Coty is fine. Funk Rock and a Sky Bridge Ridge would be fine too, as would the Small Walls and Tower.

No first hand knowledge of Pmrp within the last couple of weeks but I'd guess the Motherlode hill is a mess. You might be okay going to Coalbank (Solar Collector et al) as there are a couple of ways out of the valley there.

Has the motherload hill been getting plowed and salted this winter?

Travel the last few hundred yards of the pavement to coal bank with caution. A few years back there was a good size sheet of black ice that caused a few expensive headaches for some folks

Most of the oil roads have been pretty well maintained. The motherload hill was still a little icy/messy the other day, but is manageable with a 4x4.

As a side note, I have a minor little route maintenance project at Pebble if anyone handy with a wrench happens to be heading there anytime soon and available to help out.

Lot of melting icicles out there today. Decided to avoid the snow of the roads to Long/Pebble Beach and just hiked around Emerald City and the Natural Bridge. Some things were probably climbable but the sun didn't peak out until 4/5pm.

Anyone have info on funkrock right now? Too much flooding?

Creeks across the region are high, but typically (as of 2/20) not at bankful or beyond. You should be able to get across with care, but expect to get pretty wet and definitely don't cross if there's even a hint of a threat of more rain. The ground is saturated right now.
