Is that Bison (American Buffalo) on Coalinga road ? :wow

I saw one of those get really pissed at a car in Yellow Stone many years ago, and it was not pretty.

I was in Yellowstone a couple of weeks ago and had many opportunities to have bison walk within a few feet of my car. They walk down the middle of the road when they feel like it, regardless of if there are cars or not. I'm thinking that whatever the person did to upset the bison, they probably deserved whatever happened. :laughing
 
Some of that is gated to the top, motorized is restricted, I haven't explored (street tires). Something about fire conditions?
My dad and I tried back in the late 50's, lost traction in the family wagon on the last rutted rocky pull to the top.

To the top? The gate is past the top.

I'm told that, 15 years ago, you could drive a Civic out to the eucalyptus grove. They've since gated it at the turnoff for the second set of towers, due to a slide, and the road is ROUGH too.

A friend got his truck through, out to some farmland near Morro Bay, I think in 03 or 04. Had to get someone to unlock a gate because he wasn't gonna make it back up the hill.

A decade ago you could get to Cerro Alto campground without much trouble - I bet a streetbike could have done it with some balls (I did it on Gripsters on a KLX650 and it wasn't hard). I haven't tried any time recently though.
 
For what we could see, the top was the tv tower back then, we came up 1/2 mile short.
I only made a brief look at the newish to me gate, didn't read all the open trail mountain bike signage, didn't explore the one road available, didn't think it would go anywhere before the next gate.
I did just check a new county map that shows a unmaintained road out to Cerro Alto. The road to the top and Cerro Alto, the same?
