Went up to the Chilao area on Sunday with the objective of getting to Bare Mountain from Pinyon Flats. Got rebuffed and ended up on Mt. Hillyer instead. Trip report with pics here:

Bare is fun...keep trying. Consider a longer outing along the PCT from 3-points.
Nice pictures!

Good suggestion for a longer outing HU.
It was poor time management on my behalf. If I'd gotten out of the house earlier instead of lounging around all morning, I would have had plenty of time to make it to Bare.

Nice pics. I think the closure is based on the forest service budget, which means they dont have the money to oversee it for those months.

One of the paces I really enjoy too. That road closure....yeah.
The current conspiracy theory about areas that remain closed is that the Edison project of building new, higher capacity towers and lines is the reason. Keep hikers out of areas where helicopters are doing risky maneuvers with heavy things... Makes as much sense as anything else.
