Route 542 is officially open to the top!

Well, I managed to get out on the road bike Wednesday night and found that the snow crews had managed to turn the last corner to the parking lot at Artist's Point. To say that there is still a lot of snow up there is an understatement.




























The last bend in the road has a wall of snow that must be 30 feet tall.














You can see a bike in the last picture for a little perspective. The good news is that the snow is melting off fast and the road is as much a river as it is pavement.



















The good news is that the road is open and the scenery is as good as ever. Be careful above the gate as the road is covered in gravel but get out there and ride it.
