Highway 41 Open, Glacier Point Road Not So Much

Highway 41 from Oakhurst and Fish Camp has reopened. Please do not wander into the burned fire areas as weekend trees and snags will present a danger for some time.

The Glacier Point Road is closed due to the Empire Fire.

A low pressure system has moved into the area bringing with it higher humidity, cooler temperatures, and a chance for precipitation which will assist fire fighting efforts. The storm is expected to pass through the area today with a chance of thunderstorms this evening.
