Yosemite, CA – Another area mountain pass will be opening soon.
Highway 120 Tioga Pass in Yosemite will open for the season Saturday at 8am.
Yosemite officials say there are still several feet of snow in the Tuolumne Meadows area. Hiking opportunities remain limited and visitors are urged to use caution while driving. All campgrounds along Tioga Pass remain closed. All commercial services, including the gas station, store and village grill are also closed.
Last week Highway 4 Ebbetts Pass and Highway 108 Sonora Pass also opened for the summer season.
