Ahead of the weekend, most restrictions have been lifted for Pinnacles National Park.
According to the park on Facebook, most hiking trails and climbing routes, including the park road to the Bear Gulch day-use area will re-open and vehicles are permitted to park at all trailheads.
Park rangers recommend visitors arrive before 10 a.m. to ensure a parking spot as the park fills up quickly.
The park released the following restrictions remain in place since predicted fire danger remains high. These restrictions include:
All campfires or cooking fires (including charcoal fires) within the park are prohibited.
Use of charcoal grills, either park provided or personally owned, are also prohibited.
Smoking is only allowed within enclosed vehicles or within buildings where smoking is allowed.
Use of propane or gas stoves for cooking purposes is restricted to designated campsites.
Driving or parking vehicles off road and/or on vegetation is prohibited.
