Times Article: Sunrise, clear but not open

Sunrise, clear but not open

Why does this not surprise me?

Motivated cyclists/skiers will have the place all to themselves!  I hope the NPS can get their sh!t together so the business owners have some traffic...

MRNP is as insensitive to user needs as any organization in the world that I have seen. Not only Sunrise, but the Paradise Valley Road has been plowed forever to 4th Crossing and still closed to motor vehicles for no real apparent purpose whatsoever--no reason for plowing it, no reason for keeping it closed; no reason now for not completing the plowing to Stevens Canyon Road, except it served some minor purpose of keeping maintenance crews busy and a few days of heliport service. It is a shame.

If they open it it reduces the pressure on Paradise parking....and uh...we can get an easy ski approach.

Sunrise on Mount Rainier to open in time for holiday weekend (4th of July weekend)

"King said the earlier opening was prompted, in part, because of the complaints."
