Still Closed

We love the drive over to the cabin. We drive it most every week for 5 months and we never get tired of the scenery. For obvious reasons they close the road in the winter, but most years we are able to drive over it in April. Many years there is only one lane open for a week or two, but it cuts 1/2 hour off driving the long way so we take our chances. Last week we thought for sure at least one lane was opened up. We took a break in the afternoon and saw a truck and car pass by on the road. We figured if we didn't see them in 20 minutes then the road was opened up. We never saw them come back.

We packed up and headed up the hill. Both lanes were open and it was looking pretty good. About a mile from the top it turned into one lane with snow taller then the truck on both sides. At the top we saw some men on snowmobiles and asked them if the road was open. Much to our dismay they informed us that it was still closed but that we needed to go see it.
The top picture is how the road ends. Unfortunately the road will not be opened up Memorial Weekend. They are predicting it won't open up until the middle of June. It's crazy the amount of snow that still needs to melt. Glad we have the boat in the driveway, it may come in handy.
