You can get right to the parsnip on the 700 road with no issues. River looked high when I crossed it last week.

I don't know about access, but I agree, it looked like lots of water when we crossed it last Friday.

There were a bunch of trucks with empty boat trailers there, so I imagine it was ok to launch and go ?

Buddies were into Arctic lake 2 weekends ago. First trucks to parsnip via 700 rd.
they had chains and worked for it.
Arctic lake was still half frozen.
Not one bite fishing

. Bass player and I broke trail there(700) the weekend of the 18th. We were the only set of tires to the parsnip. We did have chains and worked our asses off to get to the back end for our grizz draw.

LOL Wrong answer. Dawg and i were in there on the 18th as stated and there were only one set of tracks ahead of us through the foot deep snow that was in some parts of the road and those came from 2 guys in a Polaris ranger with trax on it. We met them in there. So unless it snowed another foot or so again since your buddies were in there the week before us, then they are pulling your leg.

The photos he showed me only had quad with trax in front. Oh well.
