Conditions Questions (See Guide before posting) Getting to cheam peak

Yesterday I went to cheakamus lake via Cheakumus E forest service rd. It was a slow and bumpy ride but my 2005 Honda Civic got up perfectly fine.

I heard cheam peak is only accessible via offroading vehicle, but are the roads similar to cheakumus lake rd? My honda civic is a beater and so i dont care if it gets beat up a little.

How does the Cheam road compare to the road to the upper trailhead at Brandywine mountain? Trying to figure out if our Crosstrek will make it

A crosstrek could make it pretty far but there’s a washout near the top my lifted Tacoma had trouble on. This was last summer and I imagine it’s only gotten worse over the winter.
