How is camping in your own RV or tent, and you confine yourselves to your own campsite, is a danger to others but day-use activities are safe? That makes absolutely no sense. But we're talking about California, aren't we?
That's exactly is what's happening at Yosemite National Park.
Sierra Sun Times reported:
December 5, 2020 - In support of the California Regional Stay-at-Home order in the San Joaquin Valley region, beginning at noon on Monday, December 7, 2020, Yosemite National Park is open 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. for day-use activities only. Lodging and campgrounds are currently closed. Some services and facilities are limited, and shuttles are not operating. Consistent with the state’s regional stay at home order, day use limits will be in place until local conditions change. Please refer to California’s regional Stay-at-Home order (https://covid19.ca.gov/stay-home-except-for-essential-needs) for the current timeline of these restrictions.
Yosemite National Park will be closed daily to all visitors from 5:00 P.M. to 8:00 A.M. and park gates will be locked overnight.
All in-park overnight lodging will be closed for incoming arrivals beginning on Monday, December 7, 2020 and will remain closed until further notice. All overnight camping within Yosemite National Park will be prohibited beginning on Monday, December 7, 2020 until further notice. This includes all park campgrounds, wilderness camping, and overnight use along climbing routes. Overnight backpacking trips into Yosemite’s wilderness will also be prohibited.
