I was just up at Glacier Point yesterday, so I can personally attest that the road is open, as is the Tioga Pass road.

I have not been to Yosemite since 1995. Being able to casually mention "Yeah I was there yesterday" must be joy.

Sonora pass opened a few weeks ago. If any of you swing by let me know as I live about 20 mins from the gates. I would love to meet some fellow artist, and I don't care what format you shoot. It would just be nice to get together.

It is a 10 to 12 hour drive for me...but I still find an excuse to go a couple times a year! Usually when the pass is closed, though.

Hi Vaughn,

I will be in Yosemite for a few days in October with a couple other photographers. The pass will still be open. If you're interested in meeting up to shoot and discuss photography, let me know. I hope your minivan is doing alright!

I might take you up on that Brian, but I'll have to sell a couple photographs first to pay for the gasoline it would take! Right now that is beyond my budget. October is when I like to start diving back into the Redwoods -- and they are only an hour and 3.5 gallons of gasoline away!
