Dear Stony Creek Fans, We will be closing Stony Creek Gas, Market, and Restaurant for the time being. The Sheriff's Office has closed Highway 180 between Dunlap and the Kings Canyon Big Stump Entrance, to allow unfettered access to the fire crews battling the fire in areas North of 180. While we are not currently under threat of fire, our Lodging has been closed due to smoke impacts since before Labor Day Weekend, along with the surrounding campgrounds. With the closing of ...Hwy 180, we really don't have any customers to serve, and we would like our staff to get out of the smoke. We will advise you of any changes in the near future regarding our operations. We are keeping our hardworking firefighters battling this blaze in our thoughts and prayers, and, most of all, want them to stay safe! We thank them for successfully managing the fire in the Hume Lake area and East of Buck Rock and North of Big Meadows Road, and hope that they are successful in containing the fire in the other areas soon. They are doing a heroic job under extraordinary circumstances. We would also like to thank our hardworking staff, who have worked to keep Stony open to serve guests and government agencies needing our services (including firefighters), such as gas, from Stony, during a very difficult time. Please keep them in your thoughts, as some of our current and former staff, live in areas near Hwy 180, that are currently under an evacuation warning as the fire heads south from the Converse Basin area. We wish everyone the best in keeping safe, and hope that the firefighters are able to keep homes and property protected, along with protecting the areas' many cultural (natural & man-made) resources in harm's way. Thank you fighters! Sincerely, Stony Creek Lodge, Market, Restaurant & Gas
