I know the 120 doesn't usually open till mid to late May per description on the Tuolumne page BUT has it ever opened any earlier? Especially these past few years since snow fall has been on the low side. I have mid April off and wanted to take a trip throught there

The Tioga Road, the popular east-west crossing of the Sierra Nevada in the northern portion of Yosemite, remains closed at this time. Currently, there is no anticipated opening date for the Tioga Road. For more information visit nps.gov

I doubt it will open early. They're doing some pretty significant road work on 120 this year, so I expect they'll use the "traditional" opening time as an excuse to more efficiently get done on the road while closed.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping it would open a little earlier since this year has seen a signigicant drop in snowfall compared to previous years
