Yeah we "get to" but by mid May I don't bother till October, might as well just stick around here and climb at the decent crags we have. I wish they could close the pass from June to September.

Late openings let the place rest, and I prefer them.
Man, I wish I could kick people out of my favorite places for half the year. 😈
I'd gladly ride/ski in in exchange.

I don't believe the current situation is the same as they described.
Today's observations after yesterday's storm, taken at @ 11:30 a.m.
Showing some Yosemite & SoYo country that never usually shows up due to haze and distance.

"Right now we know that Yosemite National Park will begin snow removal on the Tioga Pass Road on April 15. Even though this year there’s very little snow, crews also have to move downed trees, rocks, and other debris off the road to get it open."
"At last Wednesday’s local government meeting here in Lee Vining we got the official word from the Yosemite National Park Superintendent via our Mono County Supervisor that Tioga Pass will open on Friday, May 1. This is the most current information we have, and you can compare this projected opening date to opening dates in past years here."

Mouse- Jolly Cone is in Bridgeport. Unless something drastic happened, Mono Cone is still Mono Cone.
