County Road Closures

Information current as of 03/11/2024, 3:30 P.M. Please check NWS for weather conditions and plan your travel accordingly.  We strive to keep this page up to date with storm and seasonal closures, but please also reference the snow removal link to review our snow removal policy and priorities.

Storm Closures - Please be aware that there is a large amount of equipment working to improve access in Mono County.  Please slowdown as you may encounter this equipment a any time.  You may also encounter berms, bumps, snow or ice due to the extreme winter conditions in our area:

Virginia Lakes Road: OPEN to the lower parking lot.

Buckeye Road: USFS Gates are CLOSED at each end

Twin Lakes Road: OPEN to Mono Village

Lundy Lake Road: OPEN 2 miles up from 395

NOTE: Many Forest Service roads ARE IMPASSIBLE in wheeled vehicles. Although certain sections of roads may be dry, large snow drifts exist in the upper elevations and shaded locations, and are impassable in wheeled vehicles. Check local weather forecasts before any visits to remote areas, and be prepared.

 

Actual road closures and activity will be updated periodically – please consider these notices as warnings, and plan accordingly. Contact the Town of Mammoth Lakes for the status of roads within the town's limits (760-934-8054). Currently, Mono County does not manage snow removal in that area.

Please check https://roads.dot.ca.gov/roadscell.php  for current information on the status of Caltrans maintained roads.
