Open to Cascade Pass???

Anybody have current status? somebody had mentioned that the road is out for repair a few miles before the end of the road. If so, is it open to the Eldorado trailhead?

No.

Leithal and I hiked up the road last week. It's gated at Johnson Cabin (the last gate), so you can drive to the Eldo lot, but not quite to BB lot. There's a bit of a washout from one of the creeks below BB (Midas creek maybe?) There's also the usual big slide just below the CP lot that needs to melt a bit before they bring in the front loaders. Snowpack at the CP lot looks pretty low.

 

It'll a be a bit before the road opens, but nows a good time to get those early season Forbidden clibs in.
