All campgrounds in Yosemite National Park are now open for the summer, including 35 in the Yosemite Creek area that were closed for 13 years.

A flood in 1997 destroyed a bridge connecting two areas of the Yosemite Creek campground. The bridge has been rebuilt, opening the camp sites to visitors again. Several campgrounds along Tioga Road and the Glacier Point Road have also been reopened. Weather conditions forced the closure of the campsites in winter 2009.
