Forum Discussion
- Tioga Pass? You'll be fine.
- When? Tioga could close for winter at the first storm. Already listed as icy. Glacier point is already closed.
https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/conditions.htm - Will be traveling on 10/18. Middle of October. Another route around the park to the North on hwy 108 is also suggested. It is longer but would it be better or safer. Thanks
- Sonora Pass is a no no. Also subject to snow closures and that 23% grade is no fun at.
- Stay away from Sonora and Ebbitts passes at 24% and 26% grades. CA108 & CA4
If Tioga is closed you will want to continue south to CA14 and CA58 to Bakersfield. Or go north and cross at I80.
- If Tioga is open, you’ll have no problem. CA 4 is a different animal. If open don’t try it with a trailer. I did as a kid and it was very…interesting.
- Thanks for all this info. It is appreciated.
- 120 west from 395 is scheduled to close at 4pm today, 10/17, for an incoming storm. It may or may not reopen before the winter season starts.
