Meadow Creek Earliest Date to Land

I'm in the planning stage of a trip with a starting point at meadow creek, does anyone have any recent intel for runway condition? If not, what's the earliest anyone has experience landing there and what is a good technique for dragging the wheels on a possibly soft runway?

Going to be carting in a medium load in a 108-3 with 8.50's and as much experience as 50 hrs tailwheel provides.

Meadow Creek is in great shape right now. Watch out for the gopher hole about 500 feet from the north end about 8 feet inside the west side of the runway. The fire ring has a big grizzly paw print right in the middle of it.
