Yosemite Camping @ Upper Pines 🌲 Campground 🏕️ Of Course, Some Hiking 🥾 too

Camping at Yosemite Upper Pines Campground for 3 nights! 🎉
And, of course, there will be hiking 🥾 and other activities 🎣🚴‍♀️🚣🧗‍♀️

Some will be doing Half Dome 🏞️ (Steven Thomsen will be your contact for the Half Dome permits, he is in charge of that!)

In case that you have never tried to secure a campsite there, they are REALLY hard to get! About 50 of us got online months ago at 7:00 am and got 10-15 campsites. 🏕️ 🏕️ 🏕️ 🏕️

We are expecting about 50 attendees for this event. We did similar camping & hiking trip 5 months ago. About 2-3 different hikes each day. And some will rent bikes (or bring them) & also rafting from Curry Village (across the street).

The core of people attending are from my Havasupai 🌊 group (Steven Thomsen, Hamid, etc.) We have 15 or so additional “people” spots available for others to join us.

Six people are allowed on a campsite. Maximum of 6 tents ⛺️ per campsite, they just need to put their tents ON our campsites.

Two vehicles are allowed per campsite. So carpooling is encouraged. Overflow vehicles will need to park across the street at Curry Village, where some will take showers, rent bicycles or rafting, get pizza, coffee, etc.

Carpoolers will have priority to park at the campsites. At Yosemite Valley, there are bears 🐻 🐻 So you should not be leaving ANYTHING in vehicles anyway. It should not be an inconvenience to park at Curry Village, as the overflow parking across the street.

Everyone will initially be placed on the waitlist. Once you have been approved & paid, you will be moved to the “going” list. Then, everyone has the visibility of who is actually going from this group and the available spots that are left yet.

Each person committing & attending will be expected to pay a total of $36 in advance in total, which includes all 3 nights. We don’t want to have people RSVP and not attend, and others not be able to go!
Please Venmo me $36

Security, to make sure that you are sending to the correct person, the last four digits of my phone number: 1920
Again, once paid & approved, I move you from the waiting list to the “going” list, so that everyone can know the numbers going and availability left.
There will not be any refunds. It’s only $36 total for 3 nights ($12/night) to reserve a spot and go! And if you don’t end up going, you have already taken someone’s spot that wanted to go!

We will have a poluck dinner together every evening, the first night after driving there, and after we get back from hiking each day. So bring some food to eat and share for that. Also, a little breakfast food to eat and share if you eat breakfast.
A campfire🔥 is normally allowed there. So please bring at least ONE bundle of wood or purchase it there for EACH person attending. We will be there for 3 lovely nights!
