Mi-Wok and Summit District Ranger Sarah LaPlante said that the heavy snowfall is beginning to melt in the higher elevations, but cooler temperatures have delayed the spring melt. “It’s been a long time since our roads have remained impassible due to snow this late. Our maintenance teams are finding conditions improving, but there was a lot of snow up there. We ask visitors to be patient and know we are opening roads and facilities as quickly as we can.”
