Lucky for Matt, his wife Karen has encouraged him to live his dream and has been providing support along the way. ⁠

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. ⁠
