Upper Pines campground host, JULIE DUPRAY (l), entertains Yosemite National Park rangers, CHARLIE MILLER (c) and KAMERON BIEHL (r) in an RV she shares with her husband, Rusty. Many park and concession employees and campground hosts remain in Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California, during the valley closure. Yosemite Valley closed at noon yesterday to all visitors due to poor air quality and for safety concerns. Firefighting personnel and equipment are traveling through the park as well as along adjacent roads due to the Ferguson Fire burning near the park's El Portal entrance.
