I though you guy who like to wheel in San Juans to know Imogene Pass is going to be closed this summer to vehicles. Little more info
This is news we take no pleasure in sharing ... after consulting with engineers, San Miguel County officials have announced that due to the severity of the damage and the complexity of the repairs to Tomboy Road (County Road K68/Forest Service 869), vehicular access to Imogene Pass from the Telluride side this summer will be closed until at least September. The repair project is currently out to bid and will involve the contruction of a retaining wall with a drainage feature and a water crossing (Twin Falls descends from above on this portion of the road). We recognize the impact that last summer's severe washout will have on local businesses and back country enthusiasts. Bicycle and foot traffic will be permitted until construction begins later this summer.
