Re: Tioga Road Plowing?

When do the plows start?

I know...isn't it summer already? Feels like it.

Don't they always start plowing April 15?

Yes.

Isn't the sequester kind of interfering with that this year?

I'm not holding my breath. There are plenty of lower trailheads.

I believe it was at Yellowstone where they needed to get private funding to start the plows.
