September 6, 2020 - Due to the Creek Fire, a fire advisory is in effect south of Chinquapin in Yosemite National Park (this includes Wawona). An advisory message is a notice of danger in the future; it is NOT an evacuation order, but you should get set in case an order is given. You should always evacuate if you feel unsafe. If you receive a message or if a ranger tells you to evacuate, please do so immediately. Prepare now in case you receive an evacuation order.

If you are staying in Wawona, be sure to bring important items with you if you travel to other areas of the park (e.g., medications, passports, etc.) in case you're unable to return to Wawona later.

The Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias will close tonight (September 6) at 7 pm.

The Creek Fire is currently burning outside the park, in the Shaver Lake area. Visibility and air quality are reduced throughout Yosemite due to smoke. Check air quality at fire.airnow.gov/?lat=37.661622799999996&lng=-119.8005027&zoom=10
