I was planning on heading down there this weekend on the basis that a local told me (last weekend) that it was all open.

However the official website still says the red xc is "opening soon", which I'm hoping is out of date.

Is anyone able to corroborate?

Cheers!

I think most of it is open with diversions.
The Plora Craig section and the black loop off it are looking like they might never be open again from what you can see from the fireroad above.

I got caught out at the top of the clattering path a few weeks ago. The trail was blocked just as you re-enter the woods for the Minch Moor climb. I've since read on trailforks that you can get through a bit further up near Narnia. The alternative is to turn left on the fire road at the end of the clatterring path until you reach the SUW. Turn right and climb part of the way up the SUW until you reach the bench. You'd then turn right and pedal about 200m to rejoin the Minch Moor climb.
