We updated our fire and smoke page due to the great interest in the current conditions of the Rim Fire burning to the west and the associated smoke that is occasionally drifting as far south as Tuolumne Meadows and the Mono Basin. See all the new links here.

Among our new and updated links, we link to the smoke map (embedded below) showing fires, smoke, and wind direction. Click on the down arrow to the right of “Legends” to turn off the right side choices and ads.
