Hello Tenayaneers!

More photos of Tenaya Canyon for your viewing pleasure.
I added ten panorama photos at the end of the set showing scale of
the gorge.
I sure enjoyed the group and the place. It was wild!

Funny, Rick and I were just talking about doing this. I don't think I can go
that weekend however.

Subject: CMC: Half Dome Trip - Slabs - Space Available - 10/13 -14


The CMC has a trip scheduled for 10/13 - 14, with space available, to climb Half
Dome via the climbers approach route above Mirror Lake to the base of the North
face.  The route has various published ratings from class 3 to 5.6 depending
on if fixed lines are in place.  Sections can be loose and there are reportedly
some bushes on the traverse left to the start of the cables.  Helmet, harness,
and rock shoes are suggested/required.  Route may take four hours from Mirror
Lake to the cables.  Ascending the cables is optional of course.  Descent will
be via the Mist trail.

the half dome climb?

Photos are great.  Sorry I didn't make it.

 

The sunset picture implies that you were still on top at that time.  Can you provide roughly what the schedule ended up being for my future use?

Hi ! I joined not too long ago the yahoo groups and I got your message
about the Dana Couloir and I am interested in taking a trip there
pretty soon after the weather it will get better. I want to tell you
that I really liked your narration of the events and the scenic route.
Can you help me please with the route there? If you have way points
for GPS that is another possibility that it would help me a lot, or
just a red line on a downloaded map would do it . I plan to solo it
but if I find a partner by then I will take the offer . Thank you much
, I appreciate your time ! Regards, Florin!

Was Price rescheduled from this weekend to next weekend or is it still
on?

Anyone go up Half Dome from Mirror Lake last weekend?  How were
conditions?  Are the cables still up so folks can get down w/o rapping?

Susan

Hi All-

I got the magic ballot in the mail this last weekend. Usually I just
toss the ballot in the bin and not vote because I'm too lazy to go buy
stamps.  It would be very nice to elect some club officers that are
active members that attract competent climbers to the CMC and actually
climb with the club.  Am I alone in this thinking?  We have criteria
for club membership, a ridiculous division between provisional and
regular members, but no criteria at all for eligibility to serve on
the board.

Tom Cronin - I'm going to write you in and encourage other people to
as well.  I think you're one of the role models we're looking for in
CMC leadership.

Is Ron Norton still collecting the trip signups?  If so, I will
contact him for info on who is showing up for the trips.  We can also
look on the club email archives to see who contributes to the club in
other ways.

I made a mistake somewhere.  The Mt. Price trip is 10/27 - 28.  Sorry
about this.

Susan,

 

You are not alone in your thinking.  I have to agree with your comments 100%....they are very much appreciated.   Also, with Tom's OK, I'm voting for him as well....  since the meeting is in Orange County, most people here vote at the meetings.  Tom, if you're interested in being on the board, we can put in a word for you at the meeting.  I, for one, would love to have you on the board.

 

To be honest with you, your thoughts regarding provisional and regular membership has been a topic of discussion for some time.  It has been brought up consistently by Tony Yeary, Steve Powell, and Jen Hopper.  The board has been absolutely slow to move on it.

 

Also, I believe the only criteria to serve on the board is to be a regular member.  It can be challenging to find people who want to serve on the board...which is all understandable.  We volunteer, and some of us have absolutely packed schedules, families, etc.  But we welcome all the help we can get...there is plenty to be improved...  publicity-wise, trip-wise, communication amongst members, everything, etc...
