At least a portion of Yosemite National Park is expected to be closed due to the fire burning nearby. The smoke from the Ferguson Fire has caused problems in the National Park for 12 days now, but starting tomorrow at noon, a 20 mile stretch of State Route 41 will be closing until Sunday. At least 1-thousand campground, and hotel, reservations will be cancelled. The last time the valley was closed was because of a fire back in 1990. The more than 36,000 acre Ferguson Fire, burning to the west of Yosemite, is 25 percent contained.
