In Yosemite Valley, daytime highs have been in the mid-60s with overnight lows in the 30s. In Tuolumne Meadows, the daytime highs have been in the 50s, the overnight lows have been in the the teens, and there are 72 inches of snow. The recent warm weather has roused the bears . Bears are breaking into cars in parking lots and campgrounds in search of food. Do not leave food in your car.
Bears can smell food in vehicle trunks and can break in.
All food, ice chests, and aromatic items should be stored in metal food storage boxes or hard-sided cabins. Keep a clean car and campsite, and throw away all trash. Once bears become conditioned to human food, they may become unnaturally aggressive and must be killed. Your call can be made anonymously. You may enter the park 24 hours a day.
