It looks like winter is fast approaching (even though it is still autumn) in Yosemite National Park.
Snowfall has closed popular roads within the park.
According to the Los Angeles Times:
Popular roads to Yosemite National Park’s backcountry have closed for the season because of hazardous driving conditions after a recent storm, according to a park news release Wednesday.
Tioga Road (California Highway 120), the east-west route through the park, and Glacier Point Road have shut after the storm brought snow to higher elevations.
This is actually good news. We use the water that the Sierra Nevada snowpack provides. It appears that the snowpack is just starting to build.
