Mineral King Road Rehab Project

Thank you for providing comments last spring on a proposal by the National Park Service (NPS), Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, to rehabilitate 15.29 miles of Mineral King Road within Sequoia National Park.

Through the public scoping period last spring, the NPS received 30 pieces of correspondence from the public and considered all comments as we evaluated the proposed project. Related to that, I am pleased to share that the Superintendent of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks just approved a modified proposed action to rehabilitate the over 15 miles of Mineral King Road within Sequoia National Park via a categorical exclusion (CE) under the National Environmental Policy Act. The CE and associated documentation, as well as a response to your public comments, are available on the project website:

Thank you again for asking thoughtful questions and making helpful suggestions to better inform our decision making process. Please reach out to me directly if you have any further questions about this project.

Resources for Cabin Repair and Maintenance

Have you had work done on your Mineral King, Silver City, or Cabin Cove cabin?  If you were happy with the result, please consider providing the name of the company or individual who did the work, and that resource will be added to a list I am creating for other cabin members who may need work done on their structures.  

Please email Sharon@mineralking.net if you can help with a name or two, and what kind of work they completed.  

Thank you!
