HWY 120 between Mono Lake and Yosemite valley

[Arizona Overland]

Im trying to chart a route from Cottonwood AZ. to Anderson CA. via Yosemite Valley in google maps and it won't let me go from Mono Lake to Yosemite Valley on 120. It wants to route me up to 38 then down to 120 on the west side then in. Does anyone have any insight as to why this is? I know that it is closed in winter, but this isn't winter. Im stumped. Anyone................?

That's weird. I know there were rockslides scattered around the whole area. Maybe it might be part of your route. Keep checking, it might clear up

I believe it is still closed due to snow. https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/conditions.htm

AH. Well, Lets hope it clears up by the 1st.
So, this will be a wait till the last minute to plan my route thing.
Cool.
Louise and Clarke didn't know exactly where they wee going so why should I.
But then to, Louise and Clarke didn't have to ask permission to stop and ,are camp for the night.

Record snowfall this year. You're talking about Tioga Pass, the highest pass in CA. It was supposed to open yesterday, so should be open any day now.
