Medano Pass Primitive Road Remains CLOSED from Castle Creek to Medano Pass
Park staff (road crews and patrol rangers) were able to make initial assessments of the road damage and found deep washouts and sections of the road covered with woody debris.
This morning, patrol rangers will be coming in from the east over Medano Pass from Forest Road 559 to assess the Medano Road for any additional damages and contact any stranded parties from the impassible road conditions.
Road crew staff initially report ground conditions are too wet for any safe/effective repair operations to start until the area dries out.
All paved road areas (campround, visitor center, and main dunes area) remain open and unaffected by the flooding.
Conditions will be updated as they change on the NPS GOV official park website (link in bio) and here on this social media platform.
