Either I got mega trolled (which would be funny) or Yosemite is closed. Judging the source this is probably legit. :shock:

From http://www.nps.gov/yose/
Closures
Yosemite Valley temporarily closed High water is causing flooding in some Yosemite Valley areas, including campgrounds, parking areas, some lodging facilities, and picnic areas. Larger than usual snowpack, warm weekend weather, and rain have all contributed to higher than usual water levels. Safety concerns, including road flooding and possible infrastructure damage, have prompted Yosemite National Park officials to close Yosemite Valley temporarily to traffic.
