I want to let everyone know that the main Canyon Rim road is currently
snow packed and very slick. Depending on the day and time, some areas
are not passable, even in four wheel drive vehicles. We are trying to
keep the gate unlocked for the rest of this week for folks that must
get access, but plan to lock the gate for the season next Sunday
afternoon, 11/20. If conditions get worse, we may need to lock it
sooner. We had several people slide and/or get stuck over the
weekend. For most folks, I suggest you do not attempt to use the road
at this point. It is definitely not passable in 2 wheel drive
vehicles and should be avoided if at all possible even in a four wheel
drive vehicle with good tires.
