Hi everyone
So I see that
- Crest bus goes from Lone Pine to Mammoth Lakes (6:15 a.m. - 8:20 a.m.)
- Yarts picks up at Mammoth Lakes at 8:30
2 things:
1) This is a short time frame....not much room for error or late buses...are they usually prompt? Should I give myself an extra day to get back to Yosemite in case it's late? Is there a cheap place (camping/hostel) to stay in Lone Pine if necessary?
2) Is there a way to get from Whitney Portal to Lone Pine without paying the shuttle service $65? (hmmm..I just googled it and it's only 11.4 miles. Maybe I should just walk it? )
Any thoughts? Thanks for your help!
