Caltrans Opens Monitor Pass for Spring & Summer Season
Markleeville, CA...The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will open Monitor Pass on State Route 89 at noon on Friday, April 1, 2022. Crews removed snow and ice, cleared debris, and made necessary repairs to safely reopen the highway.
Caltrans’ goal is to have all winter passes open to the public no later than the Friday prior to Memorial Day Weekend. Late-season storms, snow accumulation and resources sometimes can hinder this goal.
However, due to the low volumes of rain and snow this year, Caltrans opened Monitor Pass and may be able to open the Sonora Pass on Route 108 in Alpine County and Ebbetts Pass on Route 4 in Alpine, Mono and Tuolumne counties sooner.
Caltrans’ top goal is safety for the traveling public. Even though the pass is open, motorists still should be prepared for emergencies as weather and road conditions can change rapidly.
Winter weather and road conditions can change rapidly. Motorists should expect the worst conditions and be prepared when traveling in areas subject to hazardous conditions. All vehicles, including those with four-wheel drive or snow tires, must carry chains when traveling during snowy weather.
Drivers without chains in their possession may not be allowed to proceed. When highway signs indicate that chains are required, drivers must stop and install chains or risk being cited and fined.
For the latest road condition information, the radio may be tuned to the Caltrans Highway Advisory Radio (HAR) at 530 AM, 1610 AM, or 1670 AM or call the Caltrans Road Condition Hotline at 1-800-427-ROAD (7623). Real-time conditions are also available online and for mobile phones at Quickmap.dot.ca.gov.

Do the math!!! There are under 50k full time residents. But we have well over a million visitors per year.
Without visitors there would be no
Bear Valley resorts
Most of the restaurants
Virtually all the businesses in Murphys
Most estimates are that each visitor spends roughly $200 per day on average when they visit.

Is all that money truly worth all the crime, litter, and drama they bring up here from the bay every weekend?
Your saying it’s worth destroying the tri-county area with their graffiti, drugs, litter, and other crimes just for the sake of their dirty money?
You know how stupid that sounds?
Keep their crime, litter, and drama in the FUKING Bay!

Sadly true as even most of the working age residents would have to leave.

Like one commenter said only people who can afford to say the hate tourists are the retirees. Ironically they probably moved up here after visiting us as tourists.

Flatlanders ruin everything with their crime, litter and drama!! Not my fault you all are too stupid to realize it!!! I’m tired of seeing the graffiti and the constant drug busts of flatlanders in the tri-county area. The tri-county area will look like downtown Stockton with all the homeless, litter, graffiti, and other crimes unless we all stand up and stay NO to the Flatlanders!!
Flatlanders; STAY IN THE FUKING BAY!!

You must not need a brain if you can’t see what the Flatlanders are doing to the tri-county area. The Flatlanders want to turn this beautiful area into downtown Stockton with all the homeless, graffiti, and drugs. The only way to save this area is to say NO to the Flatlanders!
