At Yosemite, we work hard to keep bears wild. That means ensuring that they don’t get any human food—either by being intentionally fed by park visitors or by taking food that’s been left unprotected. You’ll find bear-proof storage lockers throughout Yosemite National Park, which must be used to store all scented items. This includes all food, drinks, coolers, toiletries, and trash (including recycling). Bears have broken into cars—sometimes when only a candy wrapper or closed cooler was in view. If it has any scent at all or is related to food or food preparation in any way, it must be stored in the lockers.

• 33 inches deep x45 inches wide x 18 inches tall
• 17 inches deep x45 inches wide x 17 inches tall

While the units do have electrical outlets, refrigerators are not permitted because bears can (and will) break into them. Failure to comply with food storage policies may result in a$5000 fine and/or your removal from the camp. Cars used for food storage may be impounded.

Food storage guidelines:

• 像对待冰箱一样对待你的食物储藏柜——永远不要让它开着。
• Place food inside resealable containers and store the containers in the lockers. This includes bear-resistant coolers/ice chests.
• Ensure your food storage locker is fully closed and latched, even when padlocked.
• When you leave, empty your food storage locker.

Housekeeping Camp’s units are the only accommodations in Yosemite where outdoor cooking is permitted. All units have a campfire ring with a grill grate and a bear-proof food storage locker. All food and food related items (including coolers) and any product with a scent (including soap, toothpaste, chapstick and deodorant) must be stored in the bear-proof lockers. This includes bear-resistant coolers/ice chests.

You can buy firewood at the Housekeeping Camp Registration Office.

To protect Yosemite from invasive species that live inside cut wood, we ask guests to purchase their firewood as close to their camping destination as possible. You can purchase local firewood at most stores in Yosemite. You can learn more at theNational Park Service website.
