I'll be there doing my Totem Cam Demo thing.

And all the other volunteering of course. Set up and whatever is needed in the morning.

The Facelift is one of the highlights of the year for me.

This seems like the appropriate time to mention the vision, determination, and stamina of the Skinner of Chickens in making the greatest annual gathering of the Tribe.

Thanks Ken!

Ken Y wrote me that camping reservations don't open until April 1st. Best to wait until he's set up to receive our wishes.

I'm SO looking forward to another Facelift and to seeing a lot of you there!

Only six months and five days to go, except for us early arrivers.

A good time will be had by all.

I've been trying hard to recruit some Canuckleheaded helpers, who could easily do a stint at the FaceLift as the start of autumn climbing and a stay in Camp 4.

So if Skip and Eric are looking after Upper Pines, and Mo and Harrison Yellow Pine, anyone interested in sharing Camp 4 duties?

Unfortunately we won't be attending this year - that's the same week we are going to Kilimanjaro. Kinda bummed to miss Facelift, but theres no way we can take the time off to do both. Will have to pick up some trash on Kili just to keep in the spirit of things.

Hey Big Mike,

Glad you are coming on board. Facelift is a stellar event on this planet. I began attending the first year after my husband went to heaven (2008) and it was a total gift to me. Ken has a fantastic program backed up by incredible volunteers. Even if you are bashful you will find your place in the sun and experience gifts of new friendships and fun.

Peace, Dude. If you (and family?) get there early, I work up in the Tuolumne area and would love to show yo the great expanse of creation up there.

Cheers, lynnie

Anders I requested Camp 4. So I hope to be there. I will help you out as a floater and cover for ya when needed. I have been helping with set up every morning at the visitor center.

I am planning on bringing the wheel barrow this year. So that should help.
