Hi - Does anyone know if or when Loch Lomond is open yet?

(After seeing what is above Apex) I doubt it is open to the lake. There is a snow drift that likes to hang out on the last big curve. It could be July before driving all the way up.

Thanks for the update. I was hoping this nice weather would melt off a bunch of snow. I think I will give it a few more weeks. : )

Snow still above Apex going towards the pass (before Kingston trailhead)?

I called the ranger district office this afternoon. The road status page on their web site is wrong. The lower gate is open but the upper gate is closed.

Thank you cfr!
That looks like a bunch of snow. I would expect a lot of mud but not that much snow.
I was hoping to get up there soon, but maybe not until July. : )
