Yosemite National Park will limit visitors this summer due to COVID-19

Park officials announced Thursday that visitors to Yosemite will need a day-use reservation to enter the park, starting May 21.

"The temporary day-use reservation system will allow the park to manage visitation levels to reduce risks associated with exposure to COVID-19," the announcement said. Yosemite implemented a similar day-use reservation system last summer, the Associated Press reported.
