Wyman Canyon Road is now partially reopen
BISHOP, Calif., October 20, 2023 — Inyo National Forest staff have evaluated the condition of Wyman Canyon Road and have determined it safe to partially reopen it from the western entrance from the Silver Canyon Road intersection and continuing approximately five miles to the east.
The revised closure will now start at Water Canyon (37.436736°, -118.106847°) and continue east approximately ten miles until the forest boundary, located just before White Mountain City and Highway 168.

“Forest engineers continue to working diligently to address and repair damaged roads,” said Acting White Mountain District Ranger, Tyler Lee. “We ask for your continued patience and understanding as we continue to deal with the effects of this year’s historical precipitation and the limited resources and staff we have to address it.”
