Has the dirt Trail Ridge (one way to the visitors center) opened yet - and how much damage was done to the surface during the winter? That is an interesting drive if one has an afternoon.

Woke up this morning to a couple inches of snow...in Loveland...at 5000 feet! Bushes and shrubs are all drooping, looks to be a heavy wet snow. I'm guessing there will be snow on the ground in Golden Gate Canyon State Park this coming Memorial Day weekend. Trail Ridge opening? Figetaboutit...

They had to clear drifts that were 22-25 feet high. Though the crews have reached the Alpine Visitors Center, they still have a lot to do. And more snow is forecast for this weekend as well as next week. Opening it is one thing; keeping it open for safe travel is quite another. H E R E - Alpine Visitors Center and
H E R E - Trail Ridge/Independence Pass/SW CO is more info on what crews are dealing with, not just on Trail Ridge Road, but also Independence Pass. And SW Colorado has very significant snowpack (200% + above normal) to melt.
