gottagoacruzn Posted February 1, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Hey Eaglecw, would the Mt. Roberts tram be open in mid May? Will be on the Radiance Ots then. I'm sure there will be snow up there then.:rolleyes: Virginia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there will be snow up there then.:rolleyes: Virginia Virginia: You may want to check their website to see if they have a definite opening date for the upcoming season posted yet. But we took the tram to the top of Mt. Roberts several years ago around May 20th or so (if my memory is correct). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaciers Posted February 1, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Can we take the tram up,and hike back down later? Its $33 for a round trip tram ticket from the base. There are no one way fares starting at the bottom. If you hike up, it’s only $10 for the ride down or if you purchase at least $10 worth in the gift shop, the ride down is free.

I'm sure there will be snow up there then. There’s a possibility that there could be some snow up on top. We were up there in early June and there was a little bit of snow back up on the mountain.

That's a good question though- when do they open for the season? we are there early May...was thinking it might be interesting ride up,then a place to hike and see views after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted February 1, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Last yr they were open on May 1. But if you need to know, contact them, then post the answer here as I'm sure others would like to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted February 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2017 It usually is fully open in May. They do run the trams up and if early- do not count on any trails being open. I have walked down from the top. You need to be WELL aware of the previous weather. There are several steep areas that become, damp mud slicks. Best to have been dry for the previous several days. I would never consider any trekking down, prior to June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
