  Park Road closed at Mile 43

  A landslide at Pretty Rocks took out the road halfway along. A new bridge opened in August 2026 for hikers and cyclists only; buses still stop at Mile 43. Wonder Lake, Kantishna and the classic view from Reflection Pond stay out of reach until full bus service resumes. Check the park's conditions page first. Bron ↗
