Hi all! Well, trip time has finally come-- our flight leaves first thing in the morning. We will be flying into Fresno, and taking 41 out, stopping along the way at a Fed Ex Kinkos to pick up some stuff we shipped.

What a great forum this is. I have been looking for months for something like it, with knowledgable people and regular posters. I will be making my first trip out to Yosemite in June (from a Wednesday until a Saturday), with my boyfriend, and his sister and brother in law. We all have hiking and camping experience. We will be staying in Upper Pines. We are flying in from Philadelphia airport tby blair13 - Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada. News & Discussion
