Visiting Bodie in Winter 2024/2025

Access to Bodie SHP is currently limited by winter conditions. Highway 270 may be closed to the public at any time by Caltrans. Park staff do not determine when it opens or closes. Check the current road conditions for Highway 270 at the link below. Even if the road is open the final three miles are an unmaintained dirt road and may contain snow drifts or other hazards. Towing services are not available. 

Park staff do not currently recommend any of the alternative roads into the park often provided by mapping apps including Cottonwood Canyon, Bodie Masonic, Coyote Springs/Bridgeport Canyon or Aurora Canyon. Owners of vehicles stuck on these roads attempting to visit the park may have to wait until spring 2025 to recover their vehicles.
