We’re rolling! The view doesn’t get much better than this in Yosemite National Park.
Thank you Yosemite Conservancy!

Our second ride took us on a grand tour of Yosemite’s granite walls and meadows. 15 miles for the strong riders, a leisurely 8 for our less experienced cruisers. 9 of our campers this year are seeing Yosemite National Park for the very first time - even though some of them grew up in California. Thank you to the Yosemite Conservancy for getting them here with us.

We were honored to have Amrita Gyawali from Nepal join our camp this year. Amrita is a Kathmandu based disability rights advocate who is participating in the IREX Community Solutions Fellowship which brings the best and the brightest world leaders in community building to the US for a four month leadership program. Amrita is placed in Berkeley with the World Institute on Disability What better way to build connections in the international disability community than to in Yosemite!
Thank you to the Yosemite Conservancy for making this possible.

The first ride of our 2018 Yosemite Camp took us to Mirror Beach (aka Mirror Lake) and a view of Half Dome where Mark Wellman pointed out the route he spent 13 days climbing as the first person with paraplegia to make the summit.
This trip was funded by the Yosemite Conservancy to help first time visitors with disabilities experience off the beaten track adventures!

2018 Adventure Camp is On! Superstar Ranger Shelton Johnson kicked it off over breakfast with a resonating talk about the importance of inclusion in national parks and the lost stories of the roles African Americans played in the history of our national treasures. Thank you to the Yosemite Conservancy for funding this camp to help make Yosemite accessible!

Back from Yosemite, one of my fav places. We camped, rode bikes, rock climbed, hung out with rangers, and enjoyed the majesty of the park. Who wants to come next time? Please email or message me and say so. [email protected] A big thank you to and Bay Area Outreach & Recreation Program (BORP)

Mark did one-to-one pull ups with a single ascender when he climbed Half Dome and El Cap over 20 years ago; now he has a wide range of pulleys, ascenders, grips, and adaptive seats and harnesses which allow almost anyone to pull themselves up a rope. The view from the top was amazing and a nap on the bivy was pretty nice too.
Thank you to the Yosemite Conservancy for funding the 2017 No Limits Yosemite Adventure Camp.

Dawn Patrol! Abeba, Jorge, and Ashley get some solitude at Yosemite Falls by hitting the trail pre-dawn. Later today we'll all get on rope and climb some of those granite walls!

Bike gang hits the road in Yosemite. It was still smoky from nearby fires but that just made the lighting cool. Bay Area Outreach & Recreation Program (BORP) from Berkeley organized the handcycles for our valley tours. Thanks to the Yosemite Conservancy for funding this trip!

Ranger Shelton Johnson delivers a powerful morning message about pushing your boundaries,his experiences as one of the first African American park rangers in Yosemite, and the little known history behind his inspiration: that the all African American 5th US Calvary Division "Buffalo Soldiers" were the first guardians of the new national park. Now were heading out for our first ride and for half our group their first view of Half Dome!
