MY HAPPY PLACE
Yes Finally they got this right. My favorite new change is Topic no 5
5. People can drive through Yosemite without a reservation
Last year, only some area residents who needed to pass through the park to a destination on the other side were supposed to be allowed to drive through Yosemite without a day-use reservation.
This year, reservations won't be needed to drive through Yosemite, but normal park entrance fees still apply.
"The entrance station ranger will provide a time-stamped permit valid for the time needed to travel from entrance to entrance," park officials said. "You must drive the most direct route to exit the park; stopping is prohibited. Violating park regulations can result in a fine of up to $5,000 and/or six months in jail."
What the hell took so long..... last year I had to pay a total of 18 dollars extra, 2 dollars x 9 trips just to get to Mono and Mammoth. Made me angry as hell, not because of the money but because they can and they did. I hate being mad in My Happy Place. Oh how I tried to reason with the rangers at the entrance stations, but no go. There was no logical reason for not allowing drive throughs, remember that this was put into place because of covid, unless someone I don't know jumped into my moving truck, invading my personal space, I don't think I would be catching or giving covid to anyone driving in my truck over Tioga Pass. Anyways congrats on pulling your head out of your you know what Yosemite rule makers Hope someone spent my 18 dollars wisely,
