Got an Old Photo I Can Use?
So I’m working on the new Yosemite Blog theme and I came across a stumbling block. Does anyone have a picture of an old piton I can use? Also some old climbing photos, black and white preferably? Also any old, old, old camping pictures from the 20’s-40’s. I’m looking for things to show the history…

Geology Nuts Go Nuts Over Latest Yosemite Rock Fall
There are only 3 things that’ll really excite a geologist: 1) volcanic activity (muahahahha), 2) massive earthquakes, 3) massive rock falls. Needless to say last weeks Ahwiyah Point rock fall has geology nuts pouring in from all over. One nut in particular, my former Geology Professor Garry Hayes, posted some great photos and narratives from…
