Thanks for those links Greg.

Big Mike, the USFS page has also had posted a standing closure for the entire southeastern part of the Ridge ever since the French Fire: http://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/sierra/alerts-notices/?aid=24683

sorry if i gave bad beta on road 7so2 being closed, i was going on what john and sue been saying on there website, southern yosemite, i have not been on minarets road, 225, since the fire, i have been climbing the last couple mouths at wamello/fresno dome putting up new routes there and working on the new guide book for fresno dome/wamello, but talking to big sean a couple weeks ago about his new route on minerva dome with john and sue, big sean said most roads off minarets road are still are closed, but getting up to gray eagle road 6s66 is open and it's better then ever going to shuteye pass trail, hope this it helpful, happy climbing mike a.

I was in the Big Sleep area a week ago and there is great car camping easily accessible by regular passenger car. The camping is flat, with lots of sun. We didn't climb on Big Sleep....multi pitch slab but we did climb on the steeper cliffs and found them exceptional. Especially good was Crocodile Dome....fantastic rock, awesome climbing and an easy 35 minute approach.
