The Sierra NF has issued a closure order May 4 - June 13th. This is a large area closure which covers many of the main access roads in the Sierra National forest. Closure includes parts of Beasore rd. and Minarets road. Access to several popular Western Sierra climbing areas including parts of Shuteye Ridge, the Balls, Mammoth Pools etc. will be affected. Many of these roads are buried in snow at the moment anyway.
See the link below for details on the closure and a high resolution map of the closed roads

Description
A slightly easier route that goes up the left side of the main face. The first pitch is the crux and can be done alone.
P1 - 11b, 100ft. - This pitch is amazing and will test all aspects of your game. It is quite remarkable, and quite tough. Pumpy bolted laybacking leads to some thin, thought provoking face sections. Steep crimps at the top round out the action.
2 more 5.9 pitches with bolted anchors lead to the top. Amazing.
Rap route with two ropes. Or, walk right and rap Taipan at first, then use anchors on Tears. 1 rope. Or walk off
