342 BBQ flats

[EDT]

Has anyone heard if any progress has been made in opening the gates at BBQ flats?  I know the landowner locked them, but has any deal been reached with WDFW to open them?

Screw the land owner... Go around the back side !

Where exactly are you talking about?

I know...but it is such a long drive just to get to milk canyon!!

Where exactly are you talking about?

Two gates when heading southwest off Meloy road from Wenas.

Well if the gates remain locked then going around to the 1701 from 410 seems the only other way in. Unless you can find a road from the north end, but I dont know of one.

Are we talking about the gate on the top of Manashtash Ridge at Barber Springs road?

No.

It's the cluster of gates in red on this map:

You can always take Hog Ranch Rd up to the 1701 and back down , or go up Clemens from the Wenas feed station and around that way

Clemens can be a sonbeech sometimes.  There are ways around his stubbornness !

If a person has good legs and is in good shape, just park at waterworks on the frontside of clemans and you will get around to there in a few hours.  That's what I do

the best way is up 1701 then first right or at rocky prairie

Holy smokes!  You must be in GREAT shape!  that would be a heck of a hike!

THat is the way I have been going.  It works, but I just wish I had that access from below.

[NWTFhunter]

1701 seems to be the preferred way   
Just a reminder if you use that route, that is a U.S.F.S. road and it is patrolled.  Dont run your quads on that portion unless they are street legal.  Closely escaped a ticket a couple of years ago
