Mariposa and Tuolumne Counties requested NPS to shut down the park. Per
NPS news release: As of 3:00 pm today, Friday, March 20, 2020,
*Yosemite* National Park is *closed* to all park visitors until further
notice. This *closure* will be enforced 24-hours a day/7-days a week and
there will be no access permitted to *Yosemite* National Park.
So even the high country is closed. The concern is that the two counties
have so little health care capacity to deal with people attracted to
recreation. The Forest Service has also closed their roads to the
primary recreation areas. It's looking like the bikes only days when
Glacier Point Road and Tioga Pass open probably won't happen.

Carl,
Those are very nice, thanks. I am presuming that you are near Yosemite
National Park. I know that the park is closed, similar to many parks
around the state. However, many state and county parks near me in the
Bay Area are still open to non-motorized access by people on bikes and
on foot. Do you know if that is the same situation for Yosemite?
Thanks,
Franklyn

The Mariposa lilies are starting now. They're very simple--one
leaf, one flower growing on exposed hillsides. They are the kind
of flower that you have to watch for. The dogwood flowers are
coming soon.
My basic 13 mile out the door loop ascends a big hill (Big Hill),
wraps around the north side of the ridge on gravel and descends on
the south face on pavement. The north side has lush drainages with
dogwoods and big leaf maple--all just starting to leaf out. The
light is awesome now while the trees are still letting the sun
through.

Jason,
You have gorgeous trees near you. Must be fun to ride around
in town in this season.
I can imagine drivers complaining about fallen blossoms
sticking all over their cars!
Franklyn,
I can't tell if they're cherries either, but it must be a joy
to admire them while riding. Beautiful.
Tirebiter, Steven, and Roberta,
Glad to know that you are enjoying this thread.
Cherry blossoms are already falling here, but then peach
blossoms are in full bloom.
I think I can take pictures of them next weekend.
Takashi
