Eighteen cabins in the popular Curry Village area of Yosemite Village have been closed after a study said they were in danger of being struck by falling rock.

The Curry Village closings came last week, but weren't announced until Thursday, after a National Park Service survey made to assess which rocks are in danger of falling - and where -- pinpointed structures in harm's way. The seven-by-one-mile Yosemite Valley, site of Curry Village, is the hub of visitor activity in the popular park. About 90% of its nearly 4 million annual visitors congregate in the valley, which was formed by glaciers - and tumbling boulders.

Californians with travel plans to Yosemite will be surprised to learn that the National Trust for Historic Preservation has added the Rustic bridges in Yosemite National Park to its 2012 list of America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.

This annual list spotlights important examples of the nation's heritage that are at risk of destruction or irreparable damage. The National Trust and the Park Service are officially at odds over a national treasure, each in the name of protecting America's resources.

Yosemite fire managers have announced the 2012 Fire Season began yesterday, Monday, May 21, 2012. Fire season officially begins when seasonal firefighting equipment and personnel are in place, prepared and ready to respond.

Additionally, grasses and other vegetation at the lower elevations have begun to dry out. This year, vegetation is drying out faster than average due to the low snowpack the park received over the winter.

Yolo County's Child Welfare Services system may go through substantial changes in the coming months as county supervisors take a deeper look at its operations.

The agency, which falls under Yolo County's Health and Human Services Department, came under fire earlier this year after Supervisor Matt Rexroad made an impassioned speech pointing out the agency's defects.

The designation of April as National Child Abuse Prevention Month will take on particular significance in Yolo County where the rate of known child abuse cases has continued to exceed the statewide average, according to children's advocates.

While Yolo County Child Welfare Services attributes the majority of child neglect and abuse calls to parental drug use, there's no doubt the impact of the recession is a contributing factor. In 2009, Yolo County had a far greater rate of substantiated cases of child abuse from child welfare referrals than the statewide average.

YMCA Aquatic and Wellness Director Peggy Donaldson said the program started out with fewer than 20 students and has seen a jump in the last year for the two-day-per-week program.

Since speaking to Happy Baby founder Shazi Visram in 2009, her organic baby food company has gone from 9 employees to over 70, with more than $13 million in sales in 2010.

"The dream is that every baby deserves to be a happy baby and Moms are really looking for things to make them feel good about what they're doing for their children," said Visram. "You can go out there and spend $1,000 on a stroller and a $100 on a pair of shoes that your baby will grow out of in 3-4 weeks."
