Thinking about going to Yosemite and out to Lee Vining and bishop area. I was looking for info on when they close the pass to traffic.
I think the National Park Service does not plow snow on Hwy 120, so NPS might close it with first snowfall. If the snow melts then they might reopen. Caltrans will probably do there share to keep the rest of the highway open until winter begins, but the high elevation portions are in the Nat'l Park, and hopefully the Caltrans/CHP road conditions reflect the NPS closures. I might be going over Tioga Pass on Tuesday morning unless I deter to S. Lake Tahoe to pick up my stove that I forgot in the bear box at a campground. Then I am on to Bishop and Coyote Flat area which is a high elevation plateau above 10,000 foot elev.
