Yosemite Climbing Museum set to officially open
The Yosemite Climbing Museum and Gallery officially opens on Saturday 23 April.
It follows the completion of an outdoor seating area seating up to 60 people.
This area will be used as both a picnic area as well as an outdoor speaker event and movie night area during the summer months.
The Yosemite Climbing Museum and Gallery in Mariposa, California is an invaluable asset to the global climbing community.
Recreational climbing is a growing tourism segment for the region.
The space also provides a unique forum for displaying historical climbing artefacts as well as photography, publications and memorabilia.
Yosemite local Ken Yager realized there was a need for preserving climbing history decades ago; and the Mariposa space demonstrates his commitment to filling that need.
Since the Yosemite Climbing Association (YCA) first started working on the space in 2019, they have arranged gallery walls of photography, which showcases Yosemite climbing history through the lens of prolific artists.
These include legendary Yosemite photographers; Glen Denny, Bob Swift, Wayne Merry, George Whitmore, George Meryers, Dean Fidelmen and others.
These walls are lined with display cases which feature impressive artefacts and hardware, showing the evolution of climbing and gear over time.
Yager has collected decades’ worth of climbing gear and history and long advocated for the establishment of the Yosemite Climbing Museum.
He also started Yosemite Facelift to clear trash which earned him the David R. Brower Conservation Award from the American Alpine Club.
