Apparently, the 47 mile detour around the Station Fire in section D has been reduced to 4.6 miles.

Note: the detour goes into effect May 07.

The forest service requests hikers only camp at Sulphur Spring and Messenger Campgrounds or at North Fork.

There is still the endangered species closure; that detour is also being modified.
