Coverage details
Covers SR-88 from east of Jackson and SR-89 / SR-88 from South Lake Tahoe — some nearby roads aren't monitored. See what's included.
This status covers two known Kirkwood access paths: SR-88 beginning about six miles east of Jackson through Carson Spur to Kirkwood Meadows Drive, and SR-89 from the US-50 junction at Meyers through Luther Pass to Picketts Junction, then SR-88 through Carson Pass to Kirkwood Meadows Drive.
Coverage does not begin in Jackson, and Kirkwood Meadows Drive beyond the SR-88 junction is an unmonitored resort road. Luther Pass chain reporting comes from a single checkpoint, and District 3 carries no Alpine County lane-closure reporting. Conditions outside these modeled approaches may remain visible route-wide and do not change the Kirkwood verdict.
Conditions can change quickly in the mountains. This page never replaces chain requirements, closures, or official Caltrans guidance. This boundary supports no claim about SR-88 west of the PM 20 boundary, Kirkwood Meadows Drive beyond the junction, or conditions outside the modeled approaches. Neither surface makes a safe-to-drive or all-clear claim.
