No update has been provided about Housekeeping Camp.
Portions of Yosemite Valley were flooded earlier this month when snowmelt caused the fast-moving Merced River to raise, going over its banks in some areas.

As of Thursday morning, the river's level at the Pohono Bridge stands at just over 10 feet -- which remains in minor flood stage.
