Would you like a unique and fun vacation in Yosemite National Park this summer? Make your vacation a memorable and educational experience by taking one of the new outdoor adventures offered by the non-profit Yosemite Association.
Learn about photography in spectacular Yosemite Valley. Join a group searching for bighorn sheep in the High Sierra. Raft the scenic Merced River with a park naturalist or gaze at the starry skies over Half Dome with an astronomer.
Our courses offer something for everybody-hiking, photography, art, natural history, backpacking, writing-and are taught by park rangers, veteran outdoor leaders and seasoned naturalists. Classes are offered year-round and include free camping or room reservations (at an extra cost).
New adventures for 2002 include Winter Explorations with a Ranger, Discovering Spring Wildflowers at Hite Cove, Rafting the Wild Merced: A River Ecology Expedition, Get Lost with A Ranger: Map & Compass for Beginners, Outdoor Survival Skills for Women, and Bear Patrol: The Yosemite Black Bear Research Project.
The association will also present the Second Annual Yosemite Winter Literary Conference, featuring Gary Snyder, Pam Houston, Maxine Hong Kingston and Jane Hirshfield.
Proceeds from
the Yosemite Outdoor Adventure program directly benefit Yosemite National
Park. The Yosemite Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to the
support of Yosemite through its publishing, outdoor adventures, volunteer,
and other programs. For more information or to request a catalog of all of
our classes, please call 209-379-2321 or visit www.yosemite.org/seminars/index.html.
