Re: Tioga Road Closed
My guess is if we do not get any major storm next week they will re-open.
Also don't they usually write "closed for the season" as opposed to "road closed"
on the NPS site when they are permanently closed.

Re: Tioga Road Closed
Last year, the first week of Oct. I was in the backcountry for four nights and came back to my Civic with a flyer on the windshield saying the Tioga Pass Road was closed. By the time I ended my trip, all the snow had melted off, so I had no issue leaving. I only had to walk thru snow the second day out, headed to Sunrise Lakes and early the third day, headed to Polly Dome Lake from there.
Piece of cake.

Re: Tioga Road Closed
the NPS Yose site just flipped Tioga road status to open. Looks pretty up there with the dusting of snow.
