The powers-that-be at Yosemite National Park are considering raising camping fees that, if enacted, will begin in October.
Jeepers (as Jimmy Olsen would say), it seems like (eventually) camping in Yosemite will be as pricey as Disneyland (which is 1 Day 1-Park Ticket - Tier 5 for adults:$154).
According to KRON4:
SIERRA, Calif. (KRON) — Yosemite National Park is considering asking visitors to pay a bit more to enjoy its overnight camping.
The park said it will use the additional money to upgrade restroom, toilet and shower facilities, improve and maintain park campgrounds, restore native plants and repair/replace signage throughout the park.
“These proposed fee increases are consistent with other public and private campgrounds within the greater Sierra Nevada region,” according to the park.
I'm glad I camped in Yosemite Valley in 2016, so that's off my "bucket list".
