Tet park no DOGS allowed Alert / Warning Tuesday, February 14, 2017
This weekend there was 2 groups of people who took there dogs into the park warned informed that dogs are not allowed in the park or cabins they got very pissed and kept going. This park is a class A park and a watershed for the Sunshine Coast. Please respect the park leave dogs at home. Thanks to people chasing up and trying to spread tracks out road is in fare shape. But with warmer temps and snow melt road is getting soft most important to spread tracks out. Use 4 wheel drive from the pavement up this helps prevent chewing the road up.

Tet Road. Iced up last 2-3 Kms. Chains a must Current Conditions Sunday, February 26, 2017
Light dusting of snow on top of ice could be very tricky. Highly recommend chains on from bridge area up. Some bare spots but many spots hard to even walk on. Stay safe use chains please slow down as many residents in area walk there dogs up that road. 30 kmph speed limit on dry road. Basicly single lane road.
