Gate in Ophir to Jacob City

[FrAcTaL]

This summer, Miah and I did some 4wheelin around the Ophir area. We spoke with a friend of his (the son, brother, nephew...of Ophir's mayor), and were told that there was a gate put up on the road that is used to access Jacob City. The BLM kept taking it down and the land owner kept putting it back up....there was a lawsuit etc...

Does anyone know the current status of the gate?

The gate only prevents access from the Stockton route. It is currently open and accessible. If the gate is ever locked, Jacob City can be accessed vie Dry Canyon, but a good ATV or high clearance off road vehicle is needed to make it up there.
