Rocky Mountain National Park closed Trail Ridge Road for the winter on November 13. According to the park's news release, the road closes on the east side at Many Parks Curve and at the Colorado River Trailhead on the west side, ending through vehicle travel for the season.
The park had temporarily closed the road in late October due to snow and ice before reopening it. The closure applies to vehicles; the road remains open to pedestrians, bicyclists and leashed pets during winter.
Trail Ridge Road is the highest continuous paved road in the United States, reaching elevations above 12,000 feet, with 11 miles of roadway above 11,500 feet. It typically closes for winter around October 23, and last year it closed on November 14. Its average spring opening is the last week of May, and it opened on May 29 this year.
