Re: Roads closed

Due to heavy snow accumulation and tree failures, highway 120 and highway 41 are closed within Yosemite National Park. This is a hard closure and will remain in effect until conditions change allowing for safe opening. Highway 140 will remain open as conditions allow, but could close on short notice.

All roads into Yosemite National Park are CLOSED due to heavy snow accumulation and many tree failures. This is a hard closure and will remain in effect until conditions change allowing for safe opening.

I'm hoping to go up this weekend. Hope they get everything squared away before then.
