Here is the update we all have been waiting for from Inyo National Forest! Lake Mary Road and roads within the Lakes Basin are open to vehicle traffic starting tomorrow, July 14, at 8:00 a.m. 
Before you go, here are a few important updates to keep in mind:
Hazard Tree Abatement will continue, and as a result, there may be temporary traffic stops along the way. Please exercise patience and follow any guidance from the authorities.
The Twin Lakes campground will be the only one open for now.
Mother Nature has blessed us with abundant water, and Coldwater Creek is overflowing. As you drive through the area, please maintain a slow speed and DO NOT park on flooded shoulders.
If dumpsters are full or unavailable, pack your trash out with you. Let’s work together to #KeepMammothUnreal
We want to make sure everyone has a chance to enjoy this incredible place, but parking is extremely limited. We highly recommend checking the ESTA website for trolley information. The trolley service is a convenient and eco-friendly way to explore the area without worrying about parking spots.
