Photographers 8 | VACATION PLANNER TRAVEL TIPS Be Careful with GPS Yosemite National Park encompasses 1,200 square miles of mostly wilderness – so typing “Yosemite” in your GPS may take you to some far out places – literally! Instead make sure you use the exact address of where you are going, and stay on the routes of major highways - don’t take shortcuts. Are Tire Chains Required? Yosemite National Park is open year round but the park service recommends tire chains when visiting from November through March. Chains are also available for purchase or rent in Mariposa and Fish Camp. Due to occasional storms, chains may become required if conditions call for them. Call 209/372-0200 (press 1 then 1) for current road conditions. Take YARTS No tire chain experience? No problem! Take the Yosemite Area Regional Transit System (YARTS) bus. YARTS has daily, year-round routes with affordable rates all along the Highway 140 corridor with stops near hotels in Mariposa, Midpines, El Portal and on Highway 41 at Fishcamp. Routes from Highway 120 and Tioga Pass are available seasonally. YARTS has connections to Yosemite from Amtrak and Greyhound stations and from the Fresno/Yosemite International Airport.
