Natural History Wanderings

Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks report

The road to Cedar Grove is now open! One campground is open (Sentinel) but there are no services available yet. The lodge, restaurant, and visitor center will open in mid to late May. If you go now, make sure you bring snacks, water, maps, and other supplies you might need for the day.

On the way down to Cedar, be sure to stop and admire the beautiful wildflowers blooming near the road! They are amazing this time of year.

If you stop to see the flowers, make sure you pull completely off the road into a pull-out. Also, please do not pick any of the flowers, so that others may enjoy them too!
