What are you doing Saturday, January 30, 2016? We’d love to have you join us at an Instameet here in Yosemite.
If you’re on Instagram, you’ll immediately recognize a great chance to meet new friends, including Yosemite NPS rangers, a great bunch of Yosemite locals, and some super fun Instagramers like Carlos Luna (@CarrlosLuna), Grace Cortez (@m.gracecortez) Karen Grubb (@MrsGrubby), Mike Greggory (@mike_pgregory), Caleb Diaz (@hellohiccups), Elisabeth Brentano (@elisabethontheroad) and Katie Goldie (@goldiehawn_), plus Tenaya Lodge’s very own Trevor Lee (@trevlee).
If you’re not on Instagram, come up and join us anyway and see what all the fuss is about.
We’ve teamed up with NPS and Tenaya Lodge at Yosemite on this event to celebrate the NPS Centennial, the 100th birthday of the National Park Service this year. What better way than to kick of the year than with some winter exploration in Yosemite?
We’ll meet at the Nordic Center at Badger Pass Ski Area for a snowshoe walk at 11am. Bring your snowshoes! If you need to rent, we’ve arranged a great deal for Instameet participants. Check in at our table to get your snowshoes for $10, and we’ll have some additional activities goodies for you as well.
Let us know if you think you will be able to make it! Hope to see you there.

Hi Abhijith! Glad you’re planning to make it. No reservation needed, just meet at the Nordic Center at 11am – maybe a little earlier if you need to rent snowshoes. See you there!

It will depend a little on who comes and what everyone’s interests are. However, I’m sure it will be much shorter than the trip to Dewey Point. Our goal was to have the event be as inclusive as possible, so we aren’t aiming for speed or distance. If you get back from your trip in time, you won’t be forced into a death march. Promise. Plus, if you’re a little later, you might be able to catch some folks in the lodge on the far side of lunch. We think the walk will be over around 1pm ish – but no promises there. (Not that this is the reason that you’d try to connect, but I’ll just put it out there that the cool swag is for people actually on the walk. ;)) Hope we’ll get to see you!

Hi Vivek, Sorry you weren’t able to make it. We don’t have any more planned right now, but this was so much fun, I’m sure there will be more. Do you follow @yosemitenps on Instagram or Facebook? That would be a pretty good way to hear about future events.
