Curious what it was like to live in Lodgepole and maintain a basic level of emergency access during a record-breaking winter? Let Robert from the roads crew tell you about it in his own words at facebook.com/SequoiaKingsNPS…

UPDATE - This storm has had major impacts on the town of Three Rivers, just outside of Sequoia National Park. For that reason, we have postponed the public meeting previously planned for tomorrow to Wednesday, January 18 at 6 p.m. at the Three Rivers Memorial Building.

Is it poppy time already?! A few areas in the foothills have burst into blossom (and lots of fiddlenecks are out as well, painting whole hillsides yellow)!

Is there still snow in the parks? It depends where you go. There has been no new snow since December, but in shady and less traveled spots, plenty of snow remains, although it is very icy and crusty. Snowy slopes have logs and debris poking through and may be hazardous for play.

The Giant Forest will be OPEN to public access this weekend, Saturday 1/22 - Monday 1/24. We hope to be able to provide some access to the area tomorrow as well, depending on what our crews accomplish today. We will post an update tomorrow morning! 📷Janet Tangney

Giant Forest in Sequoia National Park will unfortunately need to remain closed again this weekend.
Road crews have been navigating new challenges this winter after the KNP Complex fire.

Giant Forest in Sequoia National Park is expected to remain closed at least through Saturday. Our team will meet this evening to track clearing progress and see if it may be possible to open at least a portion of Giant Forest on Sunday or Monday.

A little #MomentOfZen among gentle flurries in the foothills of Sequoia this morning. As winter settles in, the hills feel ready to hibernate, despite the evidence of fire that raged here not long ago.

To say there has been a lot of snow in the #Sierra this month is an understatement. 51 year record has been broken at the Central Sierra Snow Lab (near Donner Summit), and we still have more snow on the way! #CAwx #CAwater
We’re thrilled to announce that @AmberArtStudio is donating 100% of sales of their NFT fine art photography to the KNP Complex Fire Recovery Fund!
