Fri, May 22, 9:00 PM

4.5

We have done Yosemite before on the group. And each and every time it fills up early with lotos of people with big sadness they can not go. Plain and simple . . . our events have limited size. So when it fill . . . it fills. Yosemite is that amazing and iconic place that everyone loves to go. ***There are Saturday/Sunday planned Easy, Medium and Hard Options.*** We will divide by interest for different hikes. **The "Easy" route:** * Yosemite Falls (the easy walk) * Tunnel View * Glacier Point * Bridal Veil Falls * Mirror Lake * The Meadows * The River * Ahwahnee Hotel **Planned Medium Hike:** * Vernal/Nevada Mist Trail **Planned Difficult Hikes** * Yosemite Falls * 4 Mile Trail * Pohono Trail **To attend this event:** * **RSVP** on this event * **[CLICK HERE for the payment link.](https://www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/2MT6V38JJTEVJ)**[ ](https://www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/2MT6V38JJTEVJ) * **[Click Here and fill out our Attendees google form](https://forms.gle/7LktppE3Uqo67XSs5)** (this is also what the carpool info gets built from) **Notes:** * **[You MUST take care of payment to be confirmed to go.](https://www.paypal.com/instantcommerce/checkout/2MT6V38JJTEVJ)** * After payment you will get a confirmation email from Paypal * You do NOT need a paypal account. Click the process as guest, or use any credit or debit card. * If you have a X2 or a Plus One . . . just do the link a 2nd or 3rd time. * You may see LOTS of people RSVP on the event. Many do RSVP and not take care of payment. * Event is limited in size. When filled the payment link will be disabled. * If you not ready to commit yet . . . * **[Click Here and fill out our google "interest" form](https://forms.gle/7LktppE3Uqo67XSs5)** (there is a box for "interested and keep me in the loop") **Includes:** * Site (on private land) for a three day weekend * All Firewood & propane heaters provided. * Flush restrooms (that are clean) * (free)(hot) Showers available * Restaurants and Grocery adjacent * Pool and Jacuzzi available. * Super Civilized Camping. * Perfect for the beginner and first timers. * Many come solo. * Come alone and leave with friends. Come with friends & leave with more friends. **Tell me about food and everything else . . .** The logistics of providing food for every possible diet, as well as food prep issues is just not feasible or safe. AND Due to varied dietary needs and food contact issues, it's better if bring what you like and prep it. **What gear do I need?** The only specialized gear you need is Tent, Sleeping bag, Sleeping Pad (yoga mat). Everything else is household items you already have. **Special note:** this is Tent camping. No RV. No Trailers. No giant campervans. **Can I park my car next to my tent?** Sniffing tires, oil, exhaust and fuel? Yuck!!! You cars will be close. But not on top of us. Cars on one side. Humans on the other. If we overflow our parking area . . . there is an overflow parking area. **Carpools?** * Carpool info goes out ONLY to paid attendees. *(it really sucks to set up a carpool with a person who is not actually going)* * Carpool info ONLY goes out to those who fill out the [ATTENDEES/CARPOOL FORM ](https://forms.gle/7LktppE3Uqo67XSs5) *(this way it is reliable info)* * Carpool info goes out all at once *(not as you sign on)* * Carpool info goes out 1 week before the event. Too early and most carpools fall apart. *It really sucks when your ride canceled at asked for a refund a month ago but did not tell you. Carpools info sent when it is stable of who is attending.* * Carpool in week before makes sense because that's when people can really determine schedule and departure time and availability. **Refunds?** If requested 2 weeks before event start: 100% refund. If requested less than 2 weeks: 100% Full Credit be applied to ANY future event we run. ***Questions?*** [CLICK HERE to send a Direct Message](https://secure.meetup.com/messages/?new_convo=true&member_id=273063881) OTHER INFO: * *[Carpool info](https://www.meetup.com/MoreToExplore/events/282458970/)* * *[Newbie Camping Advice All things GEAR](https://www.meetup.com/MoreToExplore/events/282543094/)* * *[Newbie Camping Advice All things FOOD](https://www.meetup.com/MoreToExplore/events/282543120/)* * *[General Policies](https://www.meetup.com/MoreToExplore/events/282460572/)* This event is cross-posted to several groups.
