People like JOey F. don't get the props they're due. I'm watching you Joey, and yer always there, working.
Seriously, the guy is oddly always at the right place doing the right thing. Angel? Or just a nice guy?
It's good to see all the good work getting done, and just as important IMO, the camaraderie between the Park Service and climbers helping them make Yosemite God's little Valley.
Well done everyone! Sorry I missed it this year.

As well as the people, this is the reason I live, work and play in Yosemite.

Tunnel View is always severely impacted due to its heavy visitation. On Wednesday, Sept. 21 st, Ken and Lisa picked up over 19 pounds of litter left by previous visitors. Some of the rubbish was tossed down the dangerous northern slope of the parking area. Lisa belayed Ken on a climbing rope, so he could safely clean up the dangerous slope above the 500’ drop-off above the Merced River.
As has been usual in past years, there is the evening raffle of prizes that are donated by the Facelift sponsors, much of which is climbing and outdoor gear and clothing.
Patagonia had a unique booth, offering to repair clothing that needed patching and other TLC to extend our favorite garments.
The raffles usually attract many of our favorite "celebrities," led by Ken Yager who started it all...
Ed Hartouni so often offers his skills in photo-scanning and other technical areas to other climbers. He’s been a HUGE help to me personally, scanning my old color slides and just a good all-around friend.
See Ya'll next year!!
