Tioga Pass is open!

Tioga Pass, Hwy 120 into Yosemite from the East has now opened!
  • Sorry folks I didn't dig deep enough. Caltrans has opened the pass but the park service hasn't finished their side.

    I'm glad to see it open. You're right about those cyclists. They're getting more aggressive every year. Did two short taps on the horn to let them know I was coming and they deliberately moved into a 4 abreast formation instead of riding single line. Wish a cop had been around. I called it in to the local LEOs because these cyclists could have caused fatalities.
  • Never thought it even closed with the lack of snow we've had so far. Probably closed most of the time for road repairs this winter. Can't wait to cut through.
  • :@ The NPS website, the CA DOT site, and this site http://www.monolake.org/today/roads still show Tioga (120) as *closed*. (Badger Pass Rd. opened a couple weeks ago.)
  • One of my favorite drives. It would be better if the bicycles could stay to the right. Enjoy :C
  • Has it been open this early, any time in the last couple of decades?
