Do you know if the Trail Ridge Road between Estes Park and Grand Lake would be open mid-April?  Couldn't find anything conclusive on other web sites.

With those familiar with the area...what are general weather and road conditions that time of year in the Estes Park, Grand Lake area?  I am thinking about a motorcycle trip.  Doable? or is it too early in the season?

Thanks,

Lablover

Please IM if able.  Thanks.

Even when they get it open a lot of times it snowws enough to close it again. Even in mid-summer you can get snow up there.

And this year they have had above average snow in that area so I doubt they will be done ahead of schedule.
