Press Release: Guardsman Pass Opens for Summer 2025
PARK CITY, Utah — Exciting news for outdoor enthusiasts! Guardsman Pass has officially opened for the summer season as of May 20, 2025, according to an announcement from the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). The update was shared via social media, featuring a video that likened the moment to a significant musical highlight from Noah Kahan’s collaboration with Hozier, reflecting the thrill surrounding the opening.
Originally set to open on May 19, the pass’s opening was slightly delayed due to weather conditions. With the pass now accessible, UDOT cautions visitors to be prepared for lingering snow in the area and advises them to dress warmly while enjoying their outdoor adventures. Parking regulations are strictly enforced to maintain safety, and visitors should only park in designated areas along this scenic route.
Guardsman Pass connects to several popular destinations, including Big Cottonwood, Empire Pass, and Pine Canyon. While dogs are prohibited in Big Cottonwood Canyon, they are allowed on the Park City side, where most hiking and biking trails are located.
For those eager to explore, UDOT has also opened other scenic routes this summer, making it a perfect time to plan your outdoor adventures.
