Yosemite National Park has declared fire season starting June 26, 2023 due to hotter and drier weather conditions. Fire season is officially enacted when fire danger rating indices for the park show Moderate for 3 consecutive days.

Residential pile burning within the park is not permitted during the fire season in accordance with Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 2.13(c). Make sure to follow all fire rules and regulations when recreating and help prevent human caused wildfires by making sure your campfire is out cold when you leave by using the “drown, stir, and feel method.”

It is also important for local residents to complete the defensible space around their properties at the start of this fire season. Fire personnel will be conducting inspections within Yosemite throughout the fire season to ensure compliance.
