Westside of pinnacles has some access hoops during the current shutdown. We drove through the open gate before the entrance station in the morning a bit after 8 and were surprised to find the road closed beyond the ranger station. This added a ~2.3 mile hike (downhill on the way in) to our day. No biggie. 

The gate is typically (and signed) open from 6 AM to 8 PM and typically has an auto open feature that opens the gate from the inside to allow stragglers to exit. As such, we were quite surprised to find the auto opening mechanism manually disassembled (because of the shutdown) and the gate padlocked. This locked us and a handful of stargazers inside the park.

A furloughed ranger came around to tell everyone they must leave. She seemed to be having a very rough day, so I didn’t pursue any further line of questioning as to how locking us in would facilitate our departure.

Still a lovely day at pinnacles westside.
