      Here is the route:

  • Logistics
    • Do we want to sync up somewhere on the way to Yosemite?
      • Suggestion #1: Meet in Mariposa at 3pm and find a place to eat.
      • Suggestion #2: Meet in Yosemite Valley and eat at Curry Village
      • Suggestion #3: Pick somewhere on the way up
        – Send me suggestions
    • The hike itinerary:

      • Meet at Happy Isles bus stop #16 6am
      • <more to come here>
    • Jake has communication radios that we can use during the hike to keep in sync.
