Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Park
Community Newsletters

Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks have numerous local communities as neighbors. To maintain a positive relationship with the residents nearby, the parks are committed to providing accurate and timely information about the fire and fuels management program.

Twice each year, the parks send a newsletter to every household in fourteen communities. The pre-season mailing that goes out in late spring gives detailed information about upcoming fire and fuels projects for the year. The post-season mailing in winter provides a "wrap-up" of all fire events and reports project accomplishments.

Layer of air pollution seen from park views..

Did You Know?
Sequoia and Kings Canyon suffer from one of the worst air-pollution problems of any national park! Pollution — particularly ozone — from the Central Valley and the Bay Area is carried up into these mountains by warm winds. It challenges all of us everywhere to clear the air!
