    As of a week ago I heard the gate was still locked, but it should be open by now. I'd call Ouray County.

    Gate was locked the weekend of May 4-5th. Road was well maintained to the mine though

    Was closed as late as May 6, but some friends skied the Snake a few days ago and claimed they "walked a lot less" than us, so I'd presume open now.

    One of these years I'm going to score a used e-fatbike just for "gated but plowed" season. i.e. Maroon, Lincoln, Yankee Boy, etc.
