Are the gates locked? When Natl Parks are closed you can usually drive around the gates. I figure if they are on vacation it is to my advantage. Drive around the gate and camp anywhere. I found this out by accident. When living CA it was always very late that we arrived. Lots of hours driving through traffic. I would drive in and stop over night at first observation area. Then I discovered no big deal stopping over night in those areas. Did it for years and never a park ranger after dark.
