Episode Details

Yosemite’s summer is turning into a parking and people nightmare—without reservations, crowds are crushing the park’s capacity, with waits of an hour and a half just to enter and parking lots full by 7:30 AM. Visitors are resorting to illegal parking, conservationists are sounding the alarm, and even former reservation skeptics are now calling for limits. Officials say access is key, but critics argue the old system protected both visitors and nature. With peak season looming, experts urge early arrivals, weekday visits, or shuttles to dodge the chaos.
