The 2026-2027 El Nino Season is upon us. Here you will find the current creek status. At the bottom of the page are the Member Comments about the creek status. Anybody who has a web account is invited to make a report or give thanks by posting a comment!
We will also post updated pictures and videos here from time to time. You can check out previous winters archive with the link below.
A water flow of 50 CFS is considered dangerous for standard clearance vehicles. Only 4×4 High Clearance Vehicles recommended when CFS goes above 50.

When opening the USGS map, pan and zoom to Lytle Creek, and you can click on the dot near the range and there you will find the current CFS

Still looks little risky.
Thanks for the update Chuck! Merry Christmas!

Thanks for updates Chuck
Merry Christmas
Headed out to range see if I can get updated information! It’s Christmas Day! Check for new post later today !
Gate code stickers for 2026 have been mailed; I have mine! Check statements to insure your payment was processed! Gate code based on current conditions (RAIN) probably will not be changed until mid January! It’s important not to take new sticker (26) and place it on top of (25 code ) place next to it !
Email blast will go out announcing gate code change!
