What is an easy way for us to check on the road conditions as we near the crossing?
Is there an online road check for BCN ?
Gracias !

You really don't need to 'check' road conditions. Things are pretty static, the road is about the same day to day, month to month, year to year,....
The only thing that changes is the positions of the dead cows and burros,... Every trip the dead bodies are in different places, someone is moving the
bodies!

Simple fact is that if you are heading South, if there is a failure of the road, there will be signage that takes you off the scenic road, and back to
the old inland road.
No reason to cancel a trip.

^^ The true starting point of "risk" assessment 
One could use the last "slippage" as the reference point ...to start the risk assessment ... would appear at first blush the risk is somewhat low ...
compared to 18 wheeler's, drunk drivers, horses, cattle et al .. on Mex 1
Keep alert ... you will be ok most of the time even if ya don't lower your tire pressure 
Enjoy the "view" ... while you can

I just returned from Ensenada today, (01/02/2016).
I drove the toll road north and South three times (between La Mision and San Miguel, the last toll booth).
There is one area of the road, about 2 KM below the old land slide. There is a 50 meter section of the road that is cracked and repaved, and when
driven slowly, you can see about a 10" road separation. There is no slide or road dip as was in the previous slide area, but the left lane shows some
separation.
