I climbed this one by the regular route - the one described here - on 8/9/05. About 2.5 miles from the turnoff in the "town" of Dos Cabezas, there's a locked gate across the road accessing the Dos Cabezas peaks. So the gate is very soon after you pass the side road at 2.25 or 2.3 miles. It's actually more of a bar than a gate, but the effect is the same - you can't drive any further than this, unless someone's left it open. No big deal, but it does add a few miles to your trip, so plan accordingly....
