In case you missed it, Yosemite announced yesterday that Big Oak Flat Road (continuation of Highway 120 west into Yosemite) is closed from just inside the park boundary to Merced Grove.⁠ ⁠ "The road has a crack that is about 200 feet long and up to four feet deep. The road surface has moved two to three inches vertically and horizontally and is continuing to move.⁠ ⁠ The embankment below the road has moved as much as 15 feet downslope and has significant water flow through it."⁠ ⁠ The road will be closed at least until mid-June and possibly into July. ⁠ ⁠ Learn more via the link in our bio (πŸ”—β¬†οΈ). ⁠ ⁠ πŸ“Έ NPS
