With virtually no snow at lower elevations, Glacier National Park announced Wednesday that the Camas Road and the Quarter Circle Bridge Road are open for the season to all traffic.
Hiking and biking on the Going-to-the-Sun Road is at North Lake McDonald Road when crews are working and to Avalanche Creek when they're not.
Plowing of the Sun Road started today, but there is no snow at least as far as Logan Creek, as the Hungry Horse News has been up that far already this season.
Crews do have to clear the road of downed trees, however and will hit snow at higher elevations.
The Two Medicine Road on the east side is now open to vehicles to Running Eagle Falls.
