Road Report:

(6/13/2010) The road condition is good going into camp.  As of today camp had 18 inches of new snow, but we expect that to melt off over the next couple of days.  You can get all the way up to the y about ½  a mile before camp with a car, a 4WD may be needed that last little bit.  So if possible bring a 4WD for first session registration – buses should be fine.  Hopefully the snow will  be gone by Wednesday for Session 1 Registration. We do expect it to get sunny throughout the week for session 1 and session 2 should be great weather.  We don’t expect flooding to be a problem with any highways getting to Lander as of Today.

 

Thanks!
