  • Plowing Begins on Glacier Point Road – No Word on Tioga Road

    Snow removal operations have begun on the Glacier Point Road. No word yet on the Tioga Road but I’d guess sometime soon after this storm passes. Lots of snow melting in the high country due to the beautiful spring weather we’ve been having.

  • Tioga Pass Closed Due to Snow

    Tioga Pass closed today due to snow and ice. All other park roads are open at this time but with more rain and snow expected this weekend expect more closures and possibly the requirement of chains.
