Hi we're coming stateside from Australia at the end of April spending a few days in San Francisco then hiring a car to get us to Las Vegas. we were hoping to take 2/3 days to get there driving though Yosemite, then the Tioga Pass then through Death valley. However, having read several posts I see that the roads will still be closed :( can you suggest an alternative INTERESTING route? should we go north or south to avoid the snow? would appreciate your expert advice and anyone's experience. After a couple of days in LV we're heading for Dallas but I'll put that in a new post. thanks everyone. Susan
