Road 551 is very special because it's mainly used to access the famous man made ice caves so it extends from the edge of the retreating glacier from June until September when it starts to snow again. It's fairly easy to get to the base-camp but the glacier it self is only usable for well equipped cars. We didn't go all the way to the ice cave because the trail became hard to spot and the glacier is very fractured this time of year so we didn't want to risk drifting from the safe trail that was still open when we were there in late August 2025. Check my links below for some of the tourist options around here.
