Got an email from Blue Ridge Ranger Station today:
Right now we have opened ..FR95 going to the bridge at East Clear Creek

Today we opened the following roads: FR300 from Hwy 87 to the Apache Sitgreaves border (access from the Coconino side on FR300 to A-S is not possible at this time), FR141 (but not FR141H), FR147, FR149, FR144, FR142, FR616, FR81, FR229 and FR305.
Previously we opened FR 95 ONLY to East Clear Creek, FR 95 and FR 96 on the other side of the creek have barricades in place, there is still lots of snow out on the rim; FR 211 from Highway 87 and FR 82 is open ONLY to Long Lake; FR 751 is open to Blue Ridge Reservoir.

ALL side roads from these roads are still CLOSED!

All forest roads on the Mogollon Rim Ranger District have been opened. There is one area along the Rim Road, Forest Road 300 and Baker Butte Lookout that still has some snow on it, so if you are planning to go that way please be careful. Be prepared to possibly encounter muddy conditions and please stay on existing roadways. High clearance vehicles are recommended.

MOST of the roads on the Mogollon Rim Ranger District have been opened. All roads along Highway 260, Forest Highway 3 (Lake Mary Road), and the roads on the west of Highway 87 have been opened. Roads leading out to Forest Road 300 (Rim Road) are still closed. These roads have numerous trees that have come down over the winter, and need to be removed. Right now we are short on personnel to assist in the removal of the trees, but next week some of our seasonal employees are scheduled to return and we will concentrate our efforts on tree removal. There are also some large boulders that have fallen on Forest Road 95, these need to be pushed off the road. There is a possibility that we may be able to open FR95 just down to the creek by the end of this week. If you are traveling any of the open roads and encounter a tree across the road, please do not drive around it, but notify us as to where the tree is located so we can remove it. Thanks for your assistance and happy spring!
