We should just go do a short climb and film it. Tragedy AND comedy together.
And you could do the narration, Fred.

Now that I've seen the dates, there's a slim chance that I could make it for the final few days. If I fly myself into Mariposa and rent a car, it's possible! I'll be in freshly climbed condition after spending time in the Dolomites. If that's the case, I'll be looking for partners: Cosmic? Moose? Michael & Susan? Dean?

I can't decide if a film of my broken down body attempting to climb would be the comedy or a trad-gedy.

BTW...Chatting with Cragman yesterday. He wanted me to pass on that he intends to bring beer for the MeatFest. A fine contribution from Dean.
I'm not sure if he'll be able to stay or will be dropping of while passing through. I know he has some unfinished business to attend to near Mammoth.

I will bring some pork shoulders to slow-cook over a grill if anyone wants pulled pork.
I may or may not do more beans this year; haven't decided for sure.

Vica,
You'll have no shortage of potential climbing partners.
See ya there.
Hope so:)
I have a thread in this topic, I had two offers till now and both has gone. I have a feeling I might be cursed, but I still have time :) I will arrive little earlier as Facelift starts, but I will put all this info on my thread.

More or less three months to go. Rumour has it that the camping goddess will soon be back from the south Pacific - or at least, one of those places with mermaids and such. So last chance to get your camping requests in - IIRC, we should hear about camping requests by the end of July.
Now is also a good time to donate to the YCA. http://www.yosemiteclimbing.org/ A timely donation is always appreciated.

Yes, Mighty Hiker, can't wait to see friends, dance to the music and of course p.u. trash. The hour registration was open for camping I posted my request, but haven't heard a word. I wonder if I should, after 9 years, be nervous?
Will H be our camphost at Yella' Pines again.....hope, hope, hope!

Hi All,
We started putting people on the waitlist in mid-May, but you never know! Send an email to yosemitefacelift@gmail.com to be put on the waitlist.
Some tech and logistical difficulties: I'm waiting on a new computer and am in and out of town until mid-August. We have been monitoring the inbox, though, and will post up here when all confirmations go out. It will still be several weeks yet.
Thanks for your patience!

Hi All,
I sent out Camp Four and Yellow Pines confirmations today. Linda and I will be working through the others over the next week or so.
Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns.
Cheers,
Allyson
FYI:
We received an unprecedented number of requests for camping. Assigning sites was especially difficult this year because Tuolumne Meadows Campground will not be open during Facelift. Priority was given to those who will be volunteering from 9/26 onward and in order of the date the request was received.
Here are some statistics:
-On the waitlist, there are (as of August 1st) 1 request from May 2nd, 15 from the first week of May, 46 for the remainder of May (May 8th through May 31st), 23 for June, and 22 for July.
-The total number of people on the waitlist is 342.
-We have camping spots for 414 total campers, including sponsors, supporters, and presenters.
