Randy,
I highly recommend also posting up your query on the following southern yosemite thread on the Supertopo forum:
http://www.supertopo.com/...d=779298&tn=2080

Maybe you've followed it, but the thread has been running for several years now, and although it's a ton to wade thru, most of the current activists and climbers in the region post quite regularly.

The east side of the ridge has the highest concentration of trad climbing opportunities, so Soda Springs is a decent central location although I'd recommend the (free but no ammenities) Grey Eagle camping area, being closer to the crags. Follow the Shuteye Pass road, always staying left, to it's end. The trail departs from the few camping spots there.

Slater's article in climbing, to which you may refer, also had good info on access and routes along the southern end of the ridge. Link:
