Glacier National Park plow crews are now beyond the Avalanche Creek campground, working in the Red Rocks area on the Going-to-the-Sun Road.

Crews had a week of good weather to work in and the road is largely clear of ice and snow up to Avalanche Campground.

The road is gated at Lake McDonald Lodge, but hikers and bikers can go beyond that. While plow crews are working, there’s a closure about a half-mile before Avalanche, but there generally are no restrictions when crews aren’t plowing.

On the east side of Glacier, crews are working in the Many Glacier Valley, where they’re experiencing larger than normal drifts. The Many Glacier Road remains closed to motor vehicles.

The Camas Road is completely plowed and is now open.
