Looking north from the Tioga Pass (Highway 120) before the Big Oak Flat entrance to Yosemite National Park at the scars left by the Rim fire in 2013.
The Rim fire burned over 257,000 acres (402 square miles) and closed the Tioga Pass (Highway 120) and part of Yosemite National Park.
Logging conducted along the Tioga Pass (Highway 120) after the Rim fire salvaged approximately 210 million board feet of lumber and left most of the burned area untouched.
