@GhostOfNorman@RAVENSCOON The private developers own an 83-acre plot of land just outside the western boundaries of Yosemite, about five miles from one of the park’s defining ancient sequoia groves. They want to build a short road connecting the property to one of Yosemite’s central thoroughfares.
@GhostOfNorman@RAVENSCOON Without a new road, visitors to the property — whether it be developed into a hotel, resort or private residence — would need to drive an hour and a half in a circuitous route to reach the popular Yosemite Valley.
