Anders thanks for the info, very helpfull.

What Werner said!!! No one knows Yosemite better than he, so good advise Werner, thank you.

You CAN NOT check into camping prior to Saturday. We only have camping Saturday and Sunday nights.

If you have requested camping with a name other than an avetar...you have a place on the reservation list. YouMUST check in to secure your space..

We are still waiting word from the park service as to whether YP will be able to open. Work is being done to clear up and secure YP. It has recently been under water. They have been extrememly helpful in this whole gathering. If you attend and see a park employee in attendance....thank them for their help.

Please DO NOT attempt to reach the park service with questions about the memorial. They are very buzy getting the park ready for their buzy time of the year.

Peace


Thanks for the photo Ed! Good times with Jim...memorable weekend in the Valley with you, Royal, Frost and Fitschens a few years ago. Jim's been visiting....having tons of dreams of him, many times during the day, I get a feeling of his presents and recalling many of our road trips. Prized times!

GREAT NEWS!!
The Park Service busted their buns to get Yellow Pines cleared enough to be able to host all of us! A huge thanks to them for ALL their efforts. Camping will go as Scheduled for Saturday and Sunday nights.
Ken Yeager has been instrumental in helping monitor and facilitating this to happen, please look him up and give him a big thanks as well.
Harrison Hood will be in charge of the camp ground...he too should be given big thanks, he has lots of experience from past FaceLifts.
Peace

Those parking lots fill up fast on weekends.

That one Double D is showing can fill by 9:00 in the morning or earlier on busy weekends.

Get in early as possible.

The entrance gate on 140 can become a long line on busy weekends due to the traffic lights at Ferguson Bridge.

Werner, I lol'd at the entrance line on 41 as I left last weekend...what a joke. Hence why I'll only roll out from the coast at 0230 at the latest...can't beat the 0600 arrival, ever. :)

Great news Ron. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

For those camping at Yellow pines, parking will be tight. Please maximize space as much as you can; carpool, park close together, if there is room and you are with someone leaving a car, park right behind them (there are a few places where that works. Overflow is out by Sentinel Beach. We may have to use it.

Also we can not block the road it needs to be clear at all times for servicing. Yellow Pines has a turn around at the end. When we fill the place up its the only way to get in and out.

Lynne I'll bring some firewood and a drum just in case others will bring instruments.

Don't forget the pancake breakfast Sunday morning.
