In addition to Friday´s fires, it was a rough afternoon for Mother Lode motorists.

Just before 5pm, the first calls came in about a vehicle accident with multiple injuries on Highway 120, one mile from the west entrance to Yosemite Park, near Hardin Flat.

CHP dispatchers say the road was partially blocked for as long as an hour, while tow trucks were dispatched.

There´s still no word on the extent of the injuries or the cause of the wreck in that case.
