Yosemite National Park Warnings Or Dangers Tips by joits

Watch out for Black Bears Animal Dangers Review

Upon first arriving at Housekeeping camp, the first thing you are treated to is stock footage of a bear literally tearing open a car ass if it where made out of foil. I guess they do that to show you what can happen if you aren't careful. So basically, don't leave ANYTHING in your car. Take out all food items, toiletries, or anything that be easily mistaken by bears as food. I've been told that bears can sense food that is sealed inside a can, which is locked in a cool box in your trunk. Don't believe me? Well, that's up to you really... better be safe than sorry. Use the bear boxes provided, or else i hope you have bear damage insurance.

Long winding roads... Driving / Traffic Review

Once you get into Yosemite National park, you will be treated to long, and winding roads, frequently with blind corners. Be very careful especially at night and when it rains. The roads can sometimes be quite narrow. I remember one nasty turn when we were driving up to Glacier Point, where the road curved sharply and if you were driving any faster than 20mph... well lets just say that there's no guard rail and its a long, long, long way down. So drive slow and carefully... there's no need to rush, Yosemite ain't going anywhere.
