About six miles of the Inside North Fork Road in Glacier National Park between Fish Creek Campground and Camas Creek Bridge opened to vehicles over the weekend, but part of the road is still closed due to flood damage.

The Inside North Fork Road is a 28-mile narrow, gravel road between the Fish Creek Campground and Polebridge. Use of recreational, towed and low-clearance vehicles is strongly discouraged on the road.

Park road crews made temporary repairs on the recently opened six-mile section, including grading and placing surface gravel to improve road conditions after continuous flooding.

The section of the road between Polebridge and Logging Creek was opened to motor vehicles back in May. The section of the road between Camas Creek Bridge and Logging Creek, however, is still closed due to flooding and a road washout.

Road crews will focus future work near Anaconda and Logging creeks over the next few weeks. The entire length of the Inside North Fork Road may open later this season depending on how much damage occurred.
