There are a variety of documents that guide management of the GGNRA. Many documents, like the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) are legal requirements. Others, like the park's General Management Plan and Superintendent's Compendium, are formal documents that create a "contract" between the GGNRA and the public and are specific to the park. Director's and Superintendent Orders direct how how all NPS units will operate.

 

The below information will help give you an idea of how the park operates and fulfills its mission.

A 1° F increase in average temperature seen in California over the last 100 years has led to Sierra snow melting 2 to 4 weeks earlier and flowers blooming 1 to 2 weeks earlier. Temperatures are predicted to increase another 1° to 2° F in the next 25 years.
