The Colorado Department of Transportation(CDOT) is saying that Highway 160 over Wolf Creek Pass will reopen for the weekend at 7am tomorrow with Wolf Creek Ski area also opening tomorrow and Sunday. Wolf Creek has received 39 inches of snow so far this year and is working with a 21-inch base.
Workers have been working around the clock since historic flooding to clear extensive mud and rockslides, stabilizing highway shoulders, mitigating rockfall and installing protective barriers.
Highway 160 between Pagosa Springs and South Fork has been prioritized. CDOT also says that Wolf Creek Pass will close again on Monday to allow crews to complete repairs. Highway 160 over the pass should be permanently open for the Thanksgiving holiday.
