Forest fires near two of the nation's most popular national parks have forced evacuations and closed roads. A large fire near Yosemite National Park in Northern California was only 5% contained Wednesday afternoon. Three fires burning in the Wyoming part of Yellowstone National Park have closed several roads into the park. They're among 40 forest fires in the West.
Road closures are rare in other seasons, but not impossible. Highway 140 was closed for much of the summer of 2006 because of a rockslide, for instance, and roads can be closed due to forest fires, particularly in the late summer.o get the latest information on particular roads in the Yosemite area (but not inside the park), call the CalTrans hotline at 800-427-7623 or 916-445-7623.
