If there's a shutdown, summary for hikers (from this official doc - shorturl.at/Sm0sh )
• Trails and roads generally stay open, but support is limited.
• Bathrooms may be locked, trash might not get picked up.
• No trail or water updates online, park websites and social media go quiet.
• Rangers on duty focus on emergencies only, not visitor services.
• Areas can close if conditions become unsafe (trash, toilets, weather damage).

I mapped the areas in green that they announced open here: caltopo.com/m/FQT2CVR - here's the announcement - shorturl.at/v4DDw
