Sierra Way to Re-open

Postby admin » Fri May 27, 2011 11:33 am

Roads Department Confirms long closed, Sierra Way will re-open at 1:00 pm today May 27th-
This will allow access and egress to Kernville and upper river areas from Hwy 178, instead of detouring miles around the lake.
Sierra Way has been closed due to landslides during rain storms. People coming to Kernville via Walker Pass were detoured around the lake to Hwy 155.

Is it true that Last Chance Rd is having work done and is inaccessable? If so, any info on when it might re-open?

Yes, it's true Last Chance (Forest Road 22S02) is closed. Work to restore the drainage and surfacing began last October. The road is located on the Western Divide Ranger District within Giant Sequoia National Monument. It connects the Western Divide Highway to the Lloyd Meadow Road (Forest Road 22S82). Last Chance Road will remain closed with estimated re-opening around August this year, all depending on weather and construction issues. As of a call today, there is no solid prediction for re-opening date.
