Fire and SmokePrescribed fires and pile burning are planned for this winter, which may cause smoky conditions at times, mainly in Yosemite Valley, Wawona, and Crane Flat areas. Burn piles are planned for February 6–10 near Yosemite Village, east of The Ahwahnee, Foresta, and south of Wawona. Yosemite air quality may be affected by fires elsewhere in the region or by prescribed fire in Yosemite; hazy or smoky conditions are always possible.

Trails and Wilderness ConditionsTrails in Yosemite may be closed when there are hidden hazards or when they are impassable due to rock fall, snow, ice, or fire. Open trails aren't necessarily free of hazards--by entering the wilderness, you assume responsibility for your safety and must use good judgment. Trails not listed below are open, but may be snowy and very difficult to find from about November through May/June (and may have other hazards). Yosemite Valley Area
Wawona and Mariposa Grove Area
Glacier Point Area
