Parts of the river are swimmable, now. Tioga Pass opens on July 22nd. Summer is finally here!

This can be a tough year to plan your trip with so many closures to roads and trails. We can help! Reach out if you need some local knowledge to make the most of your time in Yosemite.

We have been reading about a couple of tragedies around swift water in neighboring communities. Please be careful around water in the park. For all intents and purposes, no area is safe for swimming, right now.

Yosemite National Park is closed through Wednesday, March 1, due to winter weather conditions.

24/02/2023

Travelling through the park will be difficult, tomorrow. There is a lot of snow, and there are a lot of visitors. You must carry chains/cables in your car.

You probably have already heard, but a significant storm is hitting the Sierras. If you need help planning your trip, please reach out via messenger.

Big storms coming. Inches of rain at lower elevations and feet of snow at higher elevations. Be prepared. You will most likely need chains except for HWY 140.

11/10/2021

Snowing at Tioga Pass right now.

07/10/2021

Rain coming tonight and tomorrow. Snow at higher elevations. Tioga Pass and Glacier Point Road will close at 5pm tonight.

No more reservation system at Yosemite. Just pay your fees when you arrive. Come up on a whim!

Took a tour with Yosemite Adventure Company today. We had a blast!

25/05/2021

Gate lines for the park have been consistently longer than 1 hour. Prescribed burns in the valley and tree removal along highway 41 have created additional delays. Good to know before you go.

02/03/2021

The park is open, and day use permits are not required. Come get your "outside" on!

31/01/2021

Rock slides and windstorms have delayed the park opening. We'll keep you posted...

08/12/2020

All lodging in the park is closed. The park is open for day use.

08/11/2020

If you come to the mountains, you gotta carry snow chains. K?

01/11/2020

The park is significantly busier today with the park reservation system no longer in place.

24/10/2020

Some road projects affecting travel between Wawona and the Valley. The part where is the road is closed for 8 hours each day for three weeks is most impactful.

Monday thru Friday
30 Minute Delays = 10/19/20 thru 10/28/20 and 11/19/20 thru 12/31/20

4 Hour Closures = 10/29/20 thru 11/18/20 (8AM to Noon & 1PM to 5PM)

No weekend or night work is scheduled at this time
