Snow Report

Batten down the hatches (and drain those water pipes), it's going to be a wintery Thanksgiving week!

Road Report from Mineral King Resident, 11/15/19

Got the cabin closed, but not before I had to remove a tree from the road. I met and spoke with Eric Davenport (our NPS water system maintenance guy), before I got to Lookout Point. So the tree had to have fallen between that time & the time I encountered the tree across the road.
The tree fell about 0.7 miles before you get to the cattle grate just below Faculty Flats. Seems to me there have been several this year.
The good news was that the large broken sections were very dry & not too hard to roll to the side.

Important MK Road Information!

Well, we have issues with our gate lock again. This, from a Silver City resident:
"Our lock appears to have succumbed to series of fatal gunshot wounds, taking 3 to the chest. Per Ranger: Use Park combo lock."
This is just a temporary fix. When our lock has been replaced, I will send out another notice. In the meantime, if you are going up before then, please call or text me at 661-776-5515, identify who you are, and I will text you back the temporary combination.
