Much of Yosemite National Park reopens Thursday. To help limit the spread of COVID-19, daytime visits will be limited to 1,700 vehicles a day.
Visitors may reserve the vehicle passes by purchasing them in advance at recreation.gov.
All were made available 7:00 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Right now there are no limits on visitors arriving on YARTS busses, in authorized tour groups, or those with a campsite or in-park lodging already booked.
Park officials say their goal is half the June average of 3,600 vehicles.
Though more days are available, here’s a look at how quickly passes are selling for the first four. Each started with 1,700 passes:
