ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK — Crews are working to open Trail Ridge Road in advance of the summer tourism season.
Officials from Rocky Mountain National Park reported on the parks' Facebook page that as of Tuesday, there was 16 feet of snow at Upper Hidden Valley; 17.5 feet at Rainbow Curve and 18.5 feet just west of Rock Cut.
The 11-mile stretch is the highest continuous paved road in the United States. The road climbs to an elevation of 12,183 feet on the route from Estes Park and Grand Lake.
The scenic route is usually open by Memorial Day.
