Map: Snowed-in San Bernardino County mountain communities are finally starting to see some relief as emergency crews continue clearing roads, though there’s still work to do.
As of Monday, 85% of roads maintained by the county were passable, meaning at least one lane was open with less than 8 inches of snow on the road, which can be navigated by four-wheel-drive vehicles with chains.
As of Sunday, the county said 100% of county-owned roads in Wrightwood were passable, while 60% of roads in the Crestline and Lake Arrowhead areas were passable. Residents who live on privately owned roads, meanwhile, need to have the roadways cleared by private contractors.
