I live in Wawona, which is within the park but still a couple hours from Tuolumne. Still, I get up there to climb during the summer and would love to drop in and meet folks.
I'll look for more detail as they happen
Peace

HELP!
Wilson's boss went Nazi on us and he has to work next weekend, leaving me without a ride to the park!!! My POS '85 Pulsar just doesn't have the legs anymore to make it up the grades on 120
I'm more than willing to pay a large chunk of the gas to and from the park and I will also have a park pass so we won't have to pay the entrance fee (going to buy it tomorrow) I'll even promise to shower and wash my equipment before the ride too
If you have room and will be passing by the Bay Area Friday afternoon, please PM or e-mail me
Thank you!!!
Ryan

Does anyone know if the shuttle bus goes anywhere near the Yosemite Creek campground?

Not even close. If you, or anyone else, get to the campsite, look for the RC.com sign. I'll have plenty of room for anyone to "squat" at our site. If we're not there, feel free to set up camp with us.
BTW... I will call 'nikegirl' to update this thread as I can add more details when I am there.
Leaving tomorrow morning to arrive late Sunday afternoon at Yosemite Creek Campground.

Oh yea...
I'll have RC.com stickers, and the SplitterGear cams for members to use in exchange for their input on the RC.com Gear Review.

I just got back from Yosemite last night. Doki, fmd4sld3, and I tried to climb Snake Dyke. A thunder storm rolled in, just as we were starting the first pitch We pulled off the route and called it a day... a very hard day, that approach SUCKS!!! It's even harder to use as a retreat route when it's raining, hailing and lighting on top of you. We had the proper gear with us so it wasn't that bad, but still very scary to see lighting hit less than a quarter of a mile away and feel the thunder at the same time.
These afternoon storms have been hitting the park about 1:00 for the last few days and one was building yesterday as we were leaving the park yesterday. BRING YOUR GORE TEX, and be prepared to back off a route.
See you guys up there this weekend.
Ryan

If anyone wants to car pool from the Bay Area, PM me. I'm planning on leaving from Oakland Friday evening and returning Sunday night. I've got a Jeep Cherokee and room for 3 total people with climbing and camping gear and food.
Or if there's already a carpool going looking for another person to split gas, PM me as well.
See you all there,
