This road was blocked in early November 2010, This road runs
between 2N01 and 1N01 is currently blocked at 2N01 between CA
Highway 38 and 2N02. The other end near Pipes Canyon is wide
open, leading to conjecture that the trail is still open. The road
marker sign is still in place along 2N02 and the trail is accessed
easily about 30 feet north of the blockage.

The photos to the left and above show the
top of 2N88Y at the junction with 2N01.
Boulders from the dam were used to block
access then the road was chunked and
slashed (covered with native materials, in this
case freshly cut tree limbs) to camo the
road. Note the dayglo vest on one tree and
the red paint on the one to left, which is hard
to see in the shadows. Even worse, when we
hiked down the trail to what was done, we
found significant amounts of trash beneath
the cut tree limbs.
The three photos to the left and above show
the bottom of 2N88Y above the junction with
2N61Y (Heartbreak Ridge). Boulders from
the dam were also used here to block
access then the road was chunked and
slashed (covered with native materials, in this
case freshly cut tree limbs) to camo the
road. Red paint was used here also to
denote the spot to place the boulders to
block the trail. When we last checked in
early December, 2010, the red paint was not
yet covered with brown paint like the marks
on the tress at the opposite end of the
closure.
