Visitor Quotas for Yosemite Valley Coming Soon...
http://www.mercedsunstar.com/2011/11/29/2139230/plan-could-restrict-yosemite-use.htmlPlan #1 was overturned and then Plan #2 was stopped while under construction. We're now on Plan #3 and $50 million into this with a new EIS in process. The Wild and Scenic River designation is driving the entire management plan for everything within 1/4 mile of the river in Yosemite Valley, Little Yosemite Valley, and the Merced High Sierra Camp including the backpackers camps, so get involved now if you have an opinion. They've got a slick summary of the issues and an easy way to comment online. You must comment by Dec 14.
