Default Closed roads in 400

2 Different bridges have been closed to traffic for over a month , the one on forest reserve road on Spinkop creek and the one on Carbondale river west of Lynx creek campground . Doesn't seem to be any repair going on , anyone know the story behind it ?

From what I was told, it could take up to 2 years. If you want the whole story, talk to MD of Pincher Creek. They are responsible for the Closures.
Lost creek, is also closed. There is no reason, that this could not be
(use at own risk)

Everybody, that uses this area, needs to contact them. They are using the word Liability as an excuse. There are some bridges in this area, that have been out for years. we were never denied access, till now. They have an agenda, and its not a good one for us.

First it was all the restrictions up west castle, then they gated Mill and Whitney. Then every well site road behind the Shell plant. The excuse then was erosion, funny how there is still shell trucks on there every day

Pretty soon there will be a gate just past the bible camp at Mill and one at the Shell plant and they wont have to worry about anyone up there
