Depending on conditions, the road and trails may close for safety reasons, so keep an eye out for mountain closures and check out safety tips. Reduce speed, avoid sudden braking and exercise caution when driving up the mountain as it is steep and winding. If you plan on walking to the summit be sure to rug up in warm and waterproof clothing, and don’t attempt it in snowy conditions or poor visibility.
