DPS Posted May 23, 2001 Share Posted May 23, 2001 Has anybody been up the Mowich Lake road recently? The Nat'l Park Service web site says the road is gated at Paul Peak. Is this information current? Has the road melted out enough to justify taking mountain bikes to ride the road to the trailhead? Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrwclimbs Posted May 27, 2001 Share Posted May 27, 2001 Haven't been there this summer to see it yet, but they usually keep it gated at Paul Peak until the ENTIRE road is snow free. They sandbagged us last year and said it was open (while at Paradise), after the long drive around-it wasn't! GRR. I think they opened the gate July 15th or so last year. On our hike in (July 9) the road was snow free until the last half mile or less of road. And there was the tire tracks of the ranger truck who dropped the rangers who did Ptar ridge in a day... So I'd bring your bike if going out soon, just have decent knobbies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
