Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2005 01:11:18 -0700 (PDT) From: Clint Cummins To: climbing [AT] lists.Stanford.EDU, Stanford Alpine Club , Subject: [SAC] Yosemite informal climbing trip - Oct. 22-23 October is here, and we might as well take advantage of the nice season in Yosemite! For this trip, I figure we should pair up for some lead/multipitch climbing, so the number of people on the trip is limited by the number of folks who can lead (although toproping can be done in a few places). Like on the October 1-2 trip, we can get together to cook on Saturday night at the Church Bowl, and by default drive out to camp outside the park and thus avoid campsite issues. (Although if people want to get campsites, that is OK, too). If you haven't filled in the SAC survey, please do so, since it is helpful to have the info for organizing this and future trips: http://alpineclub.stanford.edu/survey.htm (copy the text to an email, fill in answers, and email it to me). Here are the additional questions for this trip: 1. If you have a car, how many people (with their gear) does it fit (including driver)? 2. Do you prefer to leave Friday night 7:30pm or so) or Saturday morning (5am or so)? If you prefer to climb just one day, that is also possible. 3. Do you have a National Parks Pass or Yosemite Pass? (helpful for organizing carpools) 4. Do you have a climbing partner for this trip? If so, who? 5. What climbs would you like to lead or follow (if you're familiar with Yosemite)? To avoid excessive group emails, I will put the trip roster and logistics on the SAC webpage at: http://alpineclub.stanford.edu/info/calendar.html#yos22 Sincerely, Clint
