News found on SFGate. " The slide occurred at 11:30 p.m. Sunday on Big Oak Flat Road, also known as Highway 120, after two days of heavy rain and snow, said park spokesman Scott Gediman. An enormous boulder broke loose and crashed down over the roadway about 1,000 feet north of the valley floor, taking out some of the pavement as it bounced past, Gediman said."

That stretch of Highway 120 will be closed again. " Starting at 8 a.m. Feb. 29, California Highway 120, also known as Big Oak Flat Road, will be closed to traffic between the Foresta Road junction and El Portal Road (California Highway 140) junction. The closure is expected to last until early April, officials said in a news release." " Crews will be working seven days a week, 20 hours a day, to speed repairs, with the goal of reopening the highway before Yosemite's busy spring and summer seasons. "
