Save Yosemite Valley Campgrounds

Before the 1997 flood: There were more than 800 family friendly auto-based campsites in Yosemite Valley.

After the flood: 500 campsites will remain — a loss of more than 40% of camping opportunities in Yosemite Valley.

Of these 500 sites, only 330 will be auto-based sites creating even fewer opportunities for young families, the disabled, and the elderly.

As part of the emergency flood appropriation, Congress gave the National Park Service funding to repair the campgrounds in Yosemite Valley--not to eliminate them.

Oppose this arbitrary action by the National Park Service.

Request that Lower River, Upper River, and a portion of Lower Pines Campgrounds be reinstated with family friendly auto-based sites, as was the case pre-flood; request that North Pines Campground remain as currently used.
