Just discovered and joined Bogley and thought I would try to contribute. Recently descended Chambers on 3/19 both forks of the White Roost on 3/20. Roads are in good shape, easily passable to a passenger car to the White Roost TH and probably all the way to Chambers TH. Great camping at either TH. We did not see much in the way of recent foot traffic through any the canyons. All anchors were in decent shape. We replaced some webbing along the way. Water was very low and all avoidable. The last pool in the East Fork was easily avoidable by body stemming over it.
With 4 people each fork took around 4 hrs car to car. I found both forks well worth doing, especially the "horizontal slot" of the West Fork, we had a great time!

Picture 7 of 8 really got me excited. At first glance, I thought you had found "the blue pool".
Nice pics and post.
