Does anyone know if the repairs on Vedauwoo Glen Rd have been completed and if the road is open yet?

Thanks

Call the Forest service out there. I was there this past weekend and EVERYTHING was closed. They even had the freaking campground areas closed (paved) until they opened them up on Friday morning.

I asked when they would open the rest (again, call) and they didn't know. Said it was an especially rainy/wet year.

Try 307-745-2300

Thanks Ray.

I was there Tuesday and the campground was open but Vedauwoo road was still closed thanks to a group of assholes who broke through the gate and tore the roads up. They said it'd be open yesterday but we knew how well govt agencies stick to schedules.

What a bunch of boneheads. I imagine they are the same mouth breathers that insist on scattering broken bottles everywhere. Some days I think that it is some kind of misunderstood Wyoming recycling program. At one camp site I cleaned over 25 lbs of glass, nails and shells.

Do me a favor and post here what is open after your trip. I'm heading up on Wednesday night for a 4 day weekend (next weekend).

Thanks!
Ray

wow. 700 and 707 are still closed. Its nearly freakin' June! They said they don't have plans to open either anytime soon because they have a washed out road section and haven't even begun to fix it.

Ugh.

Anyone know if 705 is open?

was just in the voo the past 4 days. 707 and 700 are now (finally) open. Don't know about 705. But nearly everything is open, I imagine it is dependent on the sections of road.
