Big fire!

The historic town of Mariposa has been evacuated. Hwy140 into Yosemite reported closed as well as a portion of Hwy 49. The power lines that supply electricity to Yosemite are in the path of the fire (last I heard) which could make issues for tourists.

If you're on your way to Yosemite or the Gold Country this week I suggest checking conditions before leaving and have a Plan "B"
