The Boundary Fire was discovered yesterday afternoon and is actively being suppressed by fire crews. The cause of this fire is still under investigation. Additional resources have been ordered including a Type 2 Interagency Management Team. Visitors and residents should expect to see and smell smoke from this fire throughout the park and in the surrounding communities. This fire is located less than 1 mile north of Ribbon Falls, 1/2 miles northwest of the summit of El Capitan and spreading north/northeast through the Blue Jay Creek drainage. The Boundary Fire is burning in red fir and currently totals 400 acres.

Due to the Boundary Fire the following trailheads to El Capitan are closed:
- The Old Big Oak Flat Road Trail from Tamarack Flat Campground east to Yosemite Creek Trail
- The Old Big Oak Flat Road trailhead at Foresta
- The Yosemite Creek Trail south of the Yosemite Creek Campground
- The Lukens Lake Trail south of Tioga Road
Visitors to park can still access Upper Yosemite Falls from Yosemite Valley
