Updated info 05/24/16
Trail Ridge Rd still scheduled to open in time for Memorial Day weekend. Plan is to open the road on Friday, 05/27/16.
Additionally, per CDOT, Guanella Pass and Cottonwood Pass are scheduled to open on Friday, 05/27/16 as well. Independence Pass is scheduled to open on Thursday, 05/26/16. All are weather permitting.
Heading up to Rocky this weekend! Hope to be among the first to get in and go up and over to Grand Lake. Weather forecast for the week and through the weekend is favourable.
Had hoped to get up there this week with the girls but had not opened yet - elected to just go to Golden Clear Creek - Miss that place - but it has been discovered.
I mean - Creek front - Community center - Ball Fields - Tennis Courts - Play Ground - Library - festivals - Just hard to imagine something so close to the City the Mountains and some great Wild Places.
Thanks Thom for the update, when you drive through POST a Picture of the 13' wall of snow. Jealous.
Love Colorado,
