9,624′ Sonora Pass was scheduled to open at noon on Saturday. Then an unusual June snowstorm rolled in and they pushed back that opening to today, Monday. The storm has now dropped 3-6″ of snow on Sonora Pass and it continues to snow today and pass has been forced to remain closed.
If they open it tomorrow, there just might be some killer powder turns… Just sayin’…
“SONORA PASS/SR-108 REMAINS CLOSED DUE TO SNOW
