From the Lee Vining side, see Caltrans > State Route 120 W at Lee Vining. Most recent report was from last July, so that page apparently is not being updated.
There is an Instagram report from a week ago:
"caltransd9
State Route 120 W Update: Maintenance crews from Lee Vining are roughly two miles from the eastern entrance to @Yosemitenps
The snow on the road is deep, and crews are using a dozer in tandem with a blower to get the job done."

memorial day weekend is the unofficial bookmark for having hwy 120 cleared for the approach from lee vining.
many years that works. in the case of rain/snow years such as 2023/2024, may need to wait till mid-june.
all that said, it is an epic ride from mono lake/june lake/lee vining and back down.

Thought there was a regional specific forum.
