KIngs Canyon National Park Closed to Camping and Hunting

   As of this morning, August 28, 2015 the Rough Fire, located in the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Forests has burned over 60,000 acres.

   Containment is estimated at 25%. Therefore, all camping and hunting are banned for the remainder of the 2015 season.

   Other major fires in the state are being brought under at least 75% containment. This is the worst one in California right now. Giant Sequoias could be threatened.
