Fire restrictions are often in effect. Winter Visits Bodie is open all year. Many four wheel drive vehicles get stuck each year in powdery snow that is deeper than it first appears. Spring thaws bring mud, and wheeled vehicles are not advised. Snowmobiles must stay on designated roads within the park.
Winter weather is often unpredictable.
Operating Hours Open year around. Museum open daily during summer. Hours may vary due to weather or season and are posted at all entrances. Gray Davis, Governor.
