It’s been over a month since Yosemite National Park closed its gates to all visitors in order to combat further spread of coronavirus, and we’d be lying if we said we didn’t miss it. There’s currently no telling when the park will open again, but that doesn’t mean we have to go without its iconic sights and landmarks. If you do some exploring on the National Parks website, you’ll stumble upon a page filled with live webcam footage of some of the most popular destinations in the park. If you, like us, have been craving a Yosemite fix, then you’ll want to be sure to check them out.
