Winter and Spring Road Closures
From December 15 to April 15, all forest roads are
subject to seasonal closures due to winter weather.*
Due to this type of closure, traditional dispersed
camping is not available during this time. However,
some CA SNO-Parks allow you to camp overnight in
your vehicle with a valid SNO-Park pass, check each
one for restrictions.
*Some will open to over snow use if the requisite snow depth is
reached, subject to vehicle restrictions, talk to a forest ranger about
winter camping options.
