Road closures due to snow May 25

Post by tim »

For anyone heading out this afternoon best to check the road conditions.
Currently Highway 108 and 4 are both closed though sounds like Tioga is still OK.
Let's hope things are OK by tomorrow morning (I'm planning to head to North Dome from the Tioga Rd)!

Hopefully It will all stay open. Going to go to Lodgepole, Cedar Grove and Yosemite. Probably going to climb Mt. Hoffmann or something.

the Yose webcams look pretty socked in. I know a couple of our people are out to the SW of there. Looks to be a wetty.

Everything is bright and sunny now with 120 back open.
Rlown, it will take a lot more than this small disturbance to have an any effect on
those two.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.
