We tried both entrances to the gravel road. Both closed with big gates (RR @KM13). We did an alternative start from Pirque that it did work, but is a significant longer (but nice). I would suggest to review this segment as the two main entrances seems closed for good.
After you get into the road is very straight forward, very easy to navigate. There is water in all expected points and I think they will last long into the summer.
Indeed, it is very exposed, it will be hard to do in a sunny day, as it will be hot. Alternatively you can start really early or even do it partially at night as it is easy to navigate and not dangerous at all.
The climb is pretty steep for a maintenance road. it is +20% for ~4km, so I suggest to tackle this section really early in the morning. There is a good water source just before starting and probably also a good camping ground.
Next water source is ~14km after, but with also ~1000m of uphill, so be mindful of the time to get into there. Btw, this water source has a small cascate and pond that is great to jump in and refresh. Just walk ~10m into the upstream.

==Season 2021/22==
Found water in all expected places. Would recommend carrying a good amount with you on your way up onto the mountain pass, since this a very hot and steep section especially in the afternoon and it will be awhile before the next water source.
==Season 2019/20==
==Season 2017/18==
No log entries.
==Season 2016/17==
If you don't want to walk the first 13KM of the regular route on the road then get bus MB73 from Puente Alto.
==Start or Finish Option 1 (Rio Clarillo): Reserva Nacional Rio Clarillo==
From Plaza De Puente Alto the following buses get you close to Reserva Nacional Rio Clarillo:
Buses are frequent and calculate 1 hour for the bus ride. (2019)
==Finish Regular RouteRR: El Melocoton==
