Actually, 181 days, which isn't quite six months. The 2014 Yosemite FaceLift starts (for most) on the evening of Tuesday September 23rd. Have you made your plans yet, booked time off school or work, etc? A good time will undoubtedly be had by all - old and new friends, doing some good for a place we all love, lots of fun.

Here's the mastermind of the event, Chicken Skinner, hard at work.

Plus Werner, a friend to all climbers and steady supporter, training here for his "buggy rodeo" with Donini.

Rumour has it that Ron A and the Sleds over Everest team will be attending this year, with wheels on their sleds so as to facilitate moving around garbage, equipment, etc. They'll be leaving Kneevader any day, to make it on time.

Good to see you posting again. Hoping to see more of your usual erudite commentaries. They have been missed--at least by myself.

I missed the event last year because it came along too soon after my return from the Dolomites. I'm hoping for a repeat trip this year, but scheduled earlier so I can make it to the EVENT OF THE YEAR, our very own FACELIFT!

Anders. I hope to see you there! Count me IN!

High Traverse, Actually none. Just sign up early......and don't take my spot. Smiles, Lynne

Edit: But then again, if you have some laying around just bring it to the campfire. I think Big Mike or someone out there likes that stuff.

I am taking a three-month rain-check from this thread.

See you in June.

Ha ha! Very good Mister E. Of course, you won't read this for three months.

I'm in. Been planning already since I'm taking one of my best friends on a backpacking trip the weekend prior for his 50th.

I am thinking of doing a climber's facelift. Finding an obscure route not done due to munge etc, and clean it. Would be cool if more people joined in on that!
