It's June 10 here but will probably be ended as of June 1 depending on the number of cases. I'm hoping for the end of May. Any word on the border opening again?

Copied from The Tail of the Dragon Facebook page:
GOOD NEWS for a change..... The road blocks in Graham County - North Carolina will be REMOVED by Monday, April 20. This includes the road blocks on US129, Cherohala Skyway and Hwy 28. You will now be able to access the Dragon and the Cherohala from North Carolina. HOWEVER, for the safety of the citizens of Graham County which includes Robbinsville and Fontana, please either DO NOT STOP in the county or limit your stop for fuel only. The stores are open at the Dragon, where you can find food and fuel. NOTE: accommodations in North Carolina remain closed. For a list of open accommodations and more info see: https://tailofthedragonresorts.com/special-event-map/

I realize that Fontana resort is still closed. But it's a move in the correct direction!

If it reopens in June, you'll be okay. Otherwise, I guess we'll see you in September
