Camp Curry began in 1899, offering visitors to Yosemite Valley a cheap place to stay while visiting the National Park. Guests were lodged in pre-fab tent cabins. Today, Camp Curry still offers the same experience, and is an interesting place to stay while in Yosemite National Park.
Instructors, counselors and staff made unique & fun awards for campers and gave them out the last night at camp.
Snakes in the grass beneath our feet
Rain in the clouds above
Some moments last forever
And some flare out with love love love.
On the last night on the summer. I went camping with my friends. These past three months have been nothing short of incredible - I love every one of them in a way I'd never thought possible. Here are Keshav and Maddie, one of whom I've shot before and another who's been part of Duncan's projects for quite some time. Keshav is already gone. By this time next week, Maddie will be too. Tonight I'm going to help some of the same people I've shared the happiest months of my life with move in to college. Thank you all so much for everything.

Many houses in the area had camp wood for sale out front - put five dollars in the box (honor system!) and take a bin of wood. This particular place had the most generous bins!
While Lone Pine Gang photofools were snuggled up in their Lone Pine Hotels, George Grossman and I camped in the Alabama Hills for the weekend of the Lone Pine Gang Spring 2010 photoshoot meetup. This is the fine view from our camp in the morning. The prominent facial rock on the right was christened Lucy. We imagined her to be our camp totem and eternal benevolent overseer.
The night before, we hosted the Lone Pine Gang for a fine bit of fun, camp grub, grog and late night light painting, for which Lucy offered her fine services. We're all still waiting to see what eye-catching images the other photofools produced.

With Romanesque “medieval style” cabins and other facilities designed for campers, Wentz Camp, built between 1928 and 1953, was associated with nationally recognized oilman and philanthropist Lewis/Louis Haines Wentz, who built the camp for the children of Ponca City, Oklahoma. Also recognized as a place showcasing an outstanding example of Romanesque Revival architecture, the centerpiece of the camp is a 150 foot by 50 foot Olympic size above ground pool. Lewis (Lew) Wentz came to Oklahoma in 1911 and, after partnering with Pennsylvania oilman John G. McCaskey, founded the Wentz Oil Corporation and by 1926 was rated among the seven richest men in the United States. Later prominent in the Oklahoma Republican Party, Wentz championed the cause of helping crippled children. When he built Wentz Camp he hired Leonard H. Baines, who became the architect for the pool, cabins and camp entry, and George J. Cannon, a local Ponca City architect, to design the mess hall. Wentz Camp was built and run by Lew Wentz until his death in 1949---Wentz left the camp to the City of Ponca City and it has remained a city-owned recreational facility. The facility has been in continuous use since it opened in 1930.
