I can answer questions about campsites, reservations, things to do and places to go in Yosemite National Park. I can also answer questions about the same for the California State Beaches in Southern and Central California. My nickname is "Kamping Kahuna". No relocation/moving questions, please.

I have camped many times in Yosemite, including the valley and the high country. I am well versed in the ins and outs of getting reservatios, which is half of the adventure.

Education/Credentials

Not that this matters, but I have a Bachelor's Degree (and a Masters in the University of Life)
