[pct-l] southern oregon border conditions help

[Judson]

 Past Mt. Ashland is  not the way to drive there, imho. Instead go through 
Jacksonville up toward Applegate Lake. About 1/2 way there is a forest road 
to the left allowing much easier access to the border. I can give you more 
specific directions if you require.  Not only is the way past Mt. Ashland 
usually closed by snow until the 1st week of July, it's also slower because 
you're on dirt for a lot longer.

 For info on snow on road 20, you might try calling the Ashland Ranger 
Station at (541) 552-2900.
