More than 20,000 acres of the fire are along the northern edge of the national park.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">But 20 miles upwind in Yosemite Valley, the sky is clear and not even the scent of smoke is in the air.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Park officials expect about 3,000 cars a day to pass through the gates this weekend instead of the nearly 5,000 that might typically show on the holiday. Most of the missing will be day tourists, not folks who have waited months and even years for a campsite along the Merced River or a room at the historic Ahwahnee Lodge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've had minimal cancellations and, when we do, we fill them immediately,\" said park spokesman Scott Gediman. \"The campsites are full and there are plenty of people, but because of the publicity we're slower.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a familiar pattern of panic, cancellation and rebooking in the rugged national park that has been shaped by all manner of disaster. In years past, when boulders tumbling from 3,000-foot granite monoliths have sent tourists scrambling, or when a mouse-borne illness killed tent cabin guests, cancellations poured in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the park never has enough lodging for the 4 million tourists who visit annually, so vacant rooms rarely go unfilled for long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's not the case in nearby Groveland, a scenic Gold Rush community along a road that carries 2.2 million cars into the park every year. Early on, fire tore along Highway 120, forcing its closure and cutting off the town's lifeblood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the historic hamlet has been the dateline on scores of ominous news stories describing the inferno that has long since chewed its way north. The notoriety has taken a toll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I laid off all my girls\" Wednesday, said Laura Jensen, owner of the Firefall Coffee Roasting Co. \"This has totally drained us. It's like winter when we slow down and take care of the locals, but this should be our busiest time of the year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iron Door Saloon, which calls itself the oldest in California, also laid off employees this week, as did the Hotel Charlotte, a 1920s boutique hotel on Main Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've had $20,000 worth of cancellations in the past few days,\" said Doug Edwards, who owns the hotel with his wife, Jen. \"It's fear-driven. People don't want to drive on a road that looks like Hiroshima or Nagasaki.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making matters worse for Groveland was Thursday's fire-forced cancellation of the Strawberry Music Festival, which draws 20,000 bluegrass lovers to town every Labor Day weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're coming into the crescendo of our season,\" Edwards said. \"Our hotel should be completely full.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The impact is being felt as far north as Lake Tahoe, where thick smoke settled this week in the alpine basin that draws outdoor enthusiasts from around the world, affecting everything from hotel reservations to bicycle rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sky was clear Thursday, but tourists had yet to come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It has dropped off drastically the past week,\" said Travis McCoy of Camp Richardson Mountain Sports Center on the lake's south shore. His usual rental income of up to $3,000 daily has fallen to less than $500.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some hotels and motels at South Lake Tahoe were experiencing as much as a 10 percent to 20 percent drop in business, with less of an impact at larger hotel-casino properties, said Carol Chaplin, executive director of the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority. But she said there were signs of improvement as the holiday weekend neared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've got blue skies. We've got the lake back. It's the best it has been in a week,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrah's Lake Tahoe fielded some weekend cancellations, but not an unusually large number, spokesman John Packer said Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a vast improvement this morning — just a huge improvement — particularly compared to Tuesday when it was one of the thicker days,\" said Packer, who noted that 6,000 tickets have been sold for a Friday night outdoor concert by Brad Paisley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Air quality also showed some improvement along the eastern Sierra just east of Lake Tahoe and in Reno.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 31 wildfires are burning in eight Western states, and only two are contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire started Aug. 17 and quickly became one of the largest California wildfires on record. It has cost $47 million to fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In signs of progress, evacuation advisories for some communities north of the fire were lifted on Thursday, and California fire spokesman Daniel Berlant said at least some of the nearly 5,000 firefighters battling the blaze are expected to be released on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We continue to gain the upper hand, but there' s still a lot of work to be done,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

More than 20,000 acres of the fire are along the northern edge of the national park.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">But 20 miles upwind in Yosemite Valley, the sky is clear and not even the scent of smoke is in the air.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Park officials expect about 3,000 cars a day to pass through the gates this weekend instead of the nearly 5,000 that might typically show on the holiday. Most of the missing will be day tourists, not folks who have waited months and even years for a campsite along the Merced River or a room at the historic Ahwahnee Lodge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In years past, when boulders tumbling from 3,000-foot granite monoliths have sent tourists scrambling, or when a mouse-borne illness killed tent cabin guests, cancellations poured in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the park never has enough lodging for the 4 million tourists who visit annually, so vacant rooms rarely go unfilled for long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's not the case in nearby Groveland, a scenic Gold Rush community along a road that carries 2.2 million cars into the park every year. Early on, fire tore along Highway 120, forcing its closure and cutting off the town's lifeblood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since then, the historic hamlet has been the dateline on scores of ominous news stories describing the inferno that has long since chewed its way north. The notoriety has taken a toll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I laid off all my girls\" Wednesday, said Laura Jensen, owner of the Firefall Coffee Roasting Co. \"This has totally drained us. It's like winter when we slow down and take care of the locals, but this should be our busiest time of the year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iron Door Saloon, which calls itself the oldest in California, also laid off employees this week, as did the Hotel Charlotte, a 1920s boutique hotel on Main Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I've had $20,000 worth of cancellations in the past few days,\" said Doug Edwards, who owns the hotel with his wife, Jen. \"It's fear-driven. People don't want to drive on a road that looks like Hiroshima or Nagasaki.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Making matters worse for Groveland was Thursday's fire-forced cancellation of the Strawberry Music Festival, which draws 20,000 bluegrass lovers to town every Labor Day weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're coming into the crescendo of our season,\" Edwards said. \"Our hotel should be completely full.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The impact is being felt as far north as Lake Tahoe, where thick smoke settled this week in the alpine basin that draws outdoor enthusiasts from around the world, affecting everything from hotel reservations to bicycle rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The sky was clear Thursday, but tourists had yet to come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It has dropped off drastically the past week,\" said Travis McCoy of Camp Richardson Mountain Sports Center on the lake's south shore. His usual rental income of up to $3,000 daily has fallen to less than $500.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some hotels and motels at South Lake Tahoe were experiencing as much as a 10 percent to 20 percent drop in business, with less of an impact at larger hotel-casino properties, said Carol Chaplin, executive director of the Lake Tahoe Visitors Authority. But she said there were signs of improvement as the holiday weekend neared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've got blue skies. We've got the lake back. It's the best it has been in a week,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harrah's Lake Tahoe fielded some weekend cancellations, but not an unusually large number, spokesman John Packer said Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a vast improvement this morning — just a huge improvement — particularly compared to Tuesday when it was one of the thicker days,\" said Packer, who noted that 6,000 tickets have been sold for a Friday night outdoor concert by Brad Paisley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Air quality also showed some improvement along the eastern Sierra just east of Lake Tahoe and in Reno.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least 31 wildfires are burning in eight Western states, and only two are contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire started Aug. 17 and quickly became one of the largest California wildfires on record. It has cost $47 million to fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In signs of progress, evacuation advisories for some communities north of the fire were lifted on Thursday, and California fire spokesman Daniel Berlant said at least some of the nearly 5,000 firefighters battling the blaze are expected to be released on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We continue to gain the upper hand, but there' s still a lot of work to be done,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

On its 11th day it had surpassed 179,400 acres, becoming the seventh-largest California wildfire in records dating to 1932.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">[googlemaps https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=208523333872813891131.0004c02beb4f2788337d0&source=embed&t=m&ll=37.939865,-119.992676&spn=0.379069,0.583649&z=10&output=embed&w=425&h=350]\u003cbr>\nView \u003ca href=\"https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=208523333872813891131.0004c02beb4f2788337d0&source=embed&t=m&ll=37.939865,-119.992676&spn=0.379069,0.583649&z=10\">California Fire Map\u003c/a> in a larger map\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal forest ecologists say that historic policies of fire suppression to protect Sierra timber interests left a century's worth of fuel in the fire's path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's called making the woodpile bigger,\" said Hugh Safford, an ecologist with the U.S. Forest Service in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years of drought and a constant slow warming across the Sierra Nevada also worked to turn the Rim Fire into an inferno. For years forest ecologists have warned that Western wildfires will only get worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every year the summer temperatures are a little warmer, hence the conditions for burning are a little more auspicious,\" said Safford. \"People can deny it all they want but it's happening. Every year the fuels are a little bit drier.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire's exponential growth slowed only after hitting areas that had burned in the past two decades, and Safford says that shows the utility of prescribed and natural burns that clear brush and allow wildfires to move rapidly without killing trees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you look at the Sierra Nevada as a whole, by far the largest portion hasn't seen a fire since the 1910s and 1920s, which is very unnatural,\" said Safford, who has authored several papers on the increasing wildlife severity across California's mountain ranges. \"This one isn't stopping for a while.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a 1988 fire impacted nearly one third of Yellowstone National Park, forestry officials have begun rethinking suppression policies. Yosemite has adopted an aggressive plan of prescribed burns while allowing backcountry fires caused by lightning strikes to burn unimpeded as long as they don't threaten park facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yosemite is one of the biggest experimental landscapes for prescribed fire and it's going to pay off,\" Safford said. \"The Rim Fire is starting to hit all those old fire scars.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 350-mile-long Sierra Nevada is a unique mountain system in the U.S. with its Mediterranean climate, which means four-to-six months of drought every summer. California's mountain flora is designed to burn and even flourish and regenerate healthier after a fast-moving fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead the Rim Fire is killing everything in its path. The understory ignites trees, and wind is sweeping the fire from treetop-to-treetop in 300-foot walls of flame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scientists also expect the impact on wildlife to be severe. The fire has encompassed nearly the entire migratory range of deer in the region, and the burning treetops likely displaced many of the remaining 300 members of a subset of Great Gray Owl along the Yosemite border, said Daniel Applebee of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because their population is so small, any loss is significant,\" Applebee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire also cut through habitat of the Pacific fisher, a weasel-like animal that is listed for state and federal protections. The fire has fragmented its range, likely leaving it nowhere to expand, Applebee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire is the first of any ecological significance in about a decade in the area stretching from the Sequoia National Forest south of Yosemite to north of Lake Tahoe, said Chad Hanson, a forest ecologist and environmental activist who has published a number of papers on the significance and increasing rarity of post-fire habitat in the Sierra Nevada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually the forest will come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because we are in such tremendous deficit of this post-fire habitat type, especially in this area, the Rim Fire is a good thing ecologically,\" Hanson said. \"This is not destruction, this is ecological restoration.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire approached the main reservoir serving San Francisco, but fears that the inferno could disrupt water or hydroelectric power to the city diminished. On Tuesday the fire moved into the watershed, which increases the chances of sediment runoff this winter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yosemite crews continue to keep water on two groves of giant sequoias less than 10 miles from the fire's front lines.\u003c/p>\n\n",

For years forest ecologists have warned that Western wildfires will only get worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Every year the summer temperatures are a little warmer, hence the conditions for burning are a little more auspicious,\" said Safford. \"People can deny it all they want but it's happening. Every year the fuels are a little bit drier.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire's exponential growth slowed only after hitting areas that had burned in the past two decades, and Safford says that shows the utility of prescribed and natural burns that clear brush and allow wildfires to move rapidly without killing trees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you look at the Sierra Nevada as a whole, by far the largest portion hasn't seen a fire since the 1910s and 1920s, which is very unnatural,\" said Safford, who has authored several papers on the increasing wildlife severity across California's mountain ranges. \"This one isn't stopping for a while.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since a 1988 fire impacted nearly one third of Yellowstone National Park, forestry officials have begun rethinking suppression policies. Yosemite has adopted an aggressive plan of prescribed burns while allowing backcountry fires caused by lightning strikes to burn unimpeded as long as they don't threaten park facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yosemite is one of the biggest experimental landscapes for prescribed fire and it's going to pay off,\" Safford said. \"The Rim Fire is starting to hit all those old fire scars.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 350-mile-long Sierra Nevada is a unique mountain system in the U.S. with its Mediterranean climate, which means four-to-six months of drought every summer. California's mountain flora is designed to burn and even flourish and regenerate healthier after a fast-moving fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead the Rim Fire is killing everything in its path. The understory ignites trees, and wind is sweeping the fire from treetop-to-treetop in 300-foot walls of flame.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scientists also expect the impact on wildlife to be severe. The fire has encompassed nearly the entire migratory range of deer in the region, and the burning treetops likely displaced many of the remaining 300 members of a subset of Great Gray Owl along the Yosemite border, said Daniel Applebee of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because their population is so small, any loss is significant,\" Applebee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire also cut through habitat of the Pacific fisher, a weasel-like animal that is listed for state and federal protections. The fire has fragmented its range, likely leaving it nowhere to expand, Applebee said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rim Fire is the first of any ecological significance in about a decade in the area stretching from the Sequoia National Forest south of Yosemite to north of Lake Tahoe, said Chad Hanson, a forest ecologist and environmental activist who has published a number of papers on the significance and increasing rarity of post-fire habitat in the Sierra Nevada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eventually the forest will come back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because we are in such tremendous deficit of this post-fire habitat type, especially in this area, the Rim Fire is a good thing ecologically,\" Hanson said. \"This is not destruction, this is ecological restoration.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire approached the main reservoir serving San Francisco, but fears that the inferno could disrupt water or hydroelectric power to the city diminished. On Tuesday the fire moved into the watershed, which increases the chances of sediment runoff this winter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yosemite crews continue to keep water on two groves of giant sequoias less than 10 miles from the fire's front lines.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
