National Park Officials reported that they opened Tioga Pass to vehicles
Tuesday afternoon. With this important and scenic road to the west side of
the Sierra open in time for the holiday, Yosemite staff expects a busy
weekend.

The road has been open to the pass from the east side for several weeks,
allowing anglers and skiers to access the Tioga Pass area, but with the
entire road now open, people who plan to visit Yosemite can head over the
pass to extend their trips to the Eastern Sierra. Residents of the Eastern
Sierra can now shave time off any trips to the west side of the Sierra with
this relatively direct route.

The road is open, but Park Officials say that services in Tuolumne will be
limited this weekend. The gas station will have gas available, and the pit
toilets will be open, but the campgrounds and the visitor center aren't
scheduled to be available.

Additional services are expected to become available over the next few
weeks. tiogapass
