So Julia, does that mean it'll be open this weekend for climbers?

It's officially posted on the NPS site now -

The Tioga Road will open on Saturday, June 5, 2010 at 8 am. No camping, lodging, or other services will be available along the road.

That means it'll probably open the day before. They hate the lines that form. That's been my experience with those notices anyway.

Uhm, I have no car for the summer either, so if anyone wants to take mercy on me and take me climbing with you, well, I'M ABOUT TO CRAWL OUT OF MY SKIN I WANT TO CLIMB SO BAD!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, I'll clue you in on the Tufa Special and host the first round.

Julie, maybe I can come up to the meadows one day before, during or after the FaceLift and we can get in a climb or two.

rhyang, I don't see it.

Still says this:
There is no estimated opening date for the Tioga Road. The road open as early as conditions allow.

If it does open Fri/Sat, looks like the soonest I can be up there is Sunday.

davidji -- I get the impression the NPS site has some update problems .. the changes show for a while, and then content reverts for a while. Not sure what's up with that, but it will probably settle down eventually.

    the powers still out I guess.

wonder if the wilderness Permit shack will be open for business?

-note that multiple and convoluted ski tracks are difficult to follow-

and they're forecasting rain on friday...ie fresh snow in Toulumne ?

Wouldn't it be nice if they closed the road to TM, erased all signs of human activity and re-introduced wolves and grizzlies. Nice climbing up there but it's even a better venue for wildlife.

I WILL see you up there Jay! What does your rig look like so I can look for you? Every time I saw you I think you were in the 510 OW mobile.
