At 5:18 pm 4 plows were heading up the road locking the gate behind them.  Driver said the road should be open in a little while.  Hopefully it will be open tomorrow!

I'll be curious to see how it works if we are higher on the mtn when the gates close at the ski area.  I'm trusting there's a plan!  Thanks for your report, All.

Subject: [Sandia Nordic Ski Club] Update on the Crest Road
To: Sandia Nordic Ski Club <>


Hey Everyone,

Thanks to Mark Pozzi, who sent me this report on the road a little while ago.  Still have not heard anything from NM DOT, nor have I heard back from USFS regarding plowing the lots.  I will send additional information as it becomes available.

Here is Mark's report, which I received at 5:46 PM:

I was just up at the Sandia Peak [Ski Area] lower parking area.  The crest highway was plowed and reasonably passable to that point.  As of about 4:40 PM the gate was locked to the upper mountain.  There were perhaps 3 or 4 snow plow trucks headed up the crest highway as I was returning to Cedar Crest.  Hopefully they will open the gate and plow the upper road to allow access to the nordic ski trails.
