Black Butte Road

Black Butte Road has been groomed and is passable in a carefully driven sedan. 2WD-HC is better. Watch for rocks in the road. Beyond Falling Man Trailhead, 4WD is recommended. Jim Boone Las Vegas, NV www.birdandhike.com Sent from my iPhone

Virgin Peak Road Feb 20, 2020

Photo: Worst of the washouts on lower Virgin Peak Road. Virgin Peak Road is okay to the corral and not too bad to the old trailhead. The tight narrows is passable again. Normal vehicles can only get a short ways past the narrows, but rock-hopper Jeeps can get to the old cowboy campsite. Jim Boone..

An update for our friends and volunteers- Unfortunately the BLM has informed us that while they and the county crew will be going forward on the road repair project, they will not allow volunteers to participate, due to the risks involved concerning the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

To be prudent, we are following the Governor's instructions about shutting down all non-essential business activities, and because we care about the health and well-being of our staff and volunteers, we are canceling this and all other scheduled events for at least the next 30 days. We will be managing operations remotely and by appointment. If you need information about our organization or Gold Butte National Monument, please see our website, friendsofgoldbutte.org.

Please protect yourselves and your loved ones by staying home and staying safe. Hope to see you all soon!
