Big Oak Flat Road Yosemite Closure

Post by maverick »

YNP:
The Big Oak Flat Road is closed between the Foresta junction and Yosemite Valley due to a rockfall. The road may remain closed for several days as we wait for safe conditions to allow our road crews to assess damages and begin necessary work to clear and repair the road.

The closure means there is no access to Yosemite Valley via Highway 120 from the west. Highways 140 and 41 to Yosemite are open. Call 209/372-0200 (then 1, 1) to check on road conditions as tire chains may be required.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Have a safer backcountry experience by using the HST ReConn Form 2.0, named after Larry Conn, a HST member: http://reconn.org
