Reno, NV – Nevada State Police have confirmed that State Route 341, also known as Geiger Grade, is now open to traffic as of Monday, October 27, 2025.
According to the agency’s latest update posted on social media, the roadway has been cleared and reopened following an earlier closure. The closure had temporarily restricted travel between Reno and Virginia City, affecting commuters and visitors heading through the mountain pass.
Authorities have not specified the cause of the earlier closure, though SR341 is known for steep grades and sharp turns that can be impacted by maintenance, weather, or traffic incidents.
Travelers are advised to drive with caution as normal traffic resumes along the route. Nevada State Police remind drivers to follow posted speed limits and remain alert, especially when descending through the curving sections of Geiger Grade.
The reopening restores a vital connection for residents, tourists, and local businesses that rely on the corridor between Washoe and Storey Counties.
