Gravel continues to ford the creek, all on public right of way. A fairly easy ford (at least in fall, 1-2 feet deep and not moving fast), but you will definitely get wet and likely need to carry your bike.

USGS maintains a stream gauge that can be used to look up the current depth of the creek: https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/01610155/ The ford is generally passable at all times except during and very shortly after heavy rainfall or snowmelt.
