Default Going to the Sun Road....

will finally open on the 13th of July. From East to West and back. With the exception of the first opening date (15 July, 1933), latest opening. Now we get road repair. All in all, still worthwhile if you are in the neighborhood.

>From East to West and back.

So are you saying you can only get to Logan from the east side and then have to go back? Or, on the 13th will the Sun be open for normal 2-way traffic? Thanks

Yes, "normal traffic". Sorry about the poor wording. Park has been open for a couple of weeks, minus Going to the Sun. Lot of bikes passing through but you could not go over Logan. Still a lot of snow at elevation. I guess the "big drift" on the east side is/was huge. Might try to get up next week for a "look see".
