ACCESS UPDATE via Sierra NF website on July 11 -

https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/sierra/h ... rdb5399344

current closure for Beasore is 5S05 to Minarets (where they are replacing the bridge).
current closure for Minarets is from 7S48 to Beasore.

Chiquito, Fernandez, and Norris THs should in theory be accessible from Beasore (although call bass lake ranger station first!)

Isberg TH is only accessible, theoretically, via 5S05 with a high-clearance vehicle. 5S30 was marked as in danger of washing out from high runoff, so it's possible Isberg TH is inaccessible by vehicle. Hiking to Isberg TH from Norris TH via 5S05>4S02>5S30 adds about 4.5 miles and +450/-800' according to CalTopo. if you can get to Fernandez TH, that knocks off about a mile.
