The Badger Pass A-frame is currently open and staffed 7 days/week by Wilderness staff to answer questions and issue backcountry Wilderness permits. The final day to access the Glacier Point road Nordic trails is April 3! For more information call 372-0408.
Snow conditions: Last week's rain-on-snow event significantly impacted the snow coverage on the Nordic Route system around Badger Pass. All trails now display significant bare ground and skiing all the way to Dewey Point is no longer possible. The Glacier Point Road is no longer groomed, but is still very skiable with larger sections of exposed pavement to be expected. Composting toilets are open for use at Glacier Point, Summit Meadow, Bridalveil Creek #21, and Sentinel Dome parking. The Glacier Point cabin remains closed for the season.
Remember to bring cross country skis or snowshoes if you plan to come up to explore the Wilderness around Badger Pass. Nordic ski routes are intended for ski or snowshoe travel only. Please never walk or hike on the ski trails as post hole damage (however shallow) is long lasting and presents real hazards to all other winter recreators.
