as of 6/19/2010, the Tuckerman Ravine trail still posted as closed.

Will it be open this coming sunday (6/27)?

Thanks.

It opens when the snow is gone enough so that it's not a danger. That's often after July 4th weekend.

I do Carnac the Magician impressions in my spare time.

Thanks David and Kevin.

I need to think some other place to hike this Sunday.

It's only closed over the headwall. You can take Lionshead, Boott Spur, or the Boott Spur Cut-Off and still do essentially the same hike.

Someone else on another forum was asking this question, so I called PNVC this morning (7/1) and they said the trail was just recently opened.

Did I just hear correctly that it is snowing on Mt. Washington right now?

Temp is listed as 34 - and the webcams show something that might be frozen precip of some sort.
