Road Description

New Borden FSR links up with the original Borden FSR at ~780m in elevation. It can be used to access the upper sections of Borden FSR now that the bridge is out on the original road. With a high clearance 4x4 one can drive to within a few kilometers of the summit of Mcguire

A look at the washout
As mentioned in other bulletins on Borden FSR, there's a large section of road that has washed away down a steep embankment. It's around 650m in elevation or ~3.5km in. There is more space on the road than first appears, but I had a spotter just in case. The road is low clearance 4WD up to this point, but you will need HC to get through after. I could foresee this section washing out permanently in the coming years if there's enough rainfall.
