Default Need Shuttle Help {Damascus/Troutdale Area}!

Not sure of the best place to put this thread, but I am in a jam. T-Bob and i were planning to do either Elk Garden to Dickie Gap or Massie Gap to Dickie Gap this weekend {starting out tomorrow afternoon}, and leave our vehicle at Jerry's Kitchen in Troutdale; but we just found out that Jerry does not do shuttles any more.

We would still like to keep that plan, but we don't have a ride to the trail head. Can anyone in that general area recommend someone that might be able to help us out?

Ended up using MRO because I could line them up pretty quick.

Kinnickinic -- we will keep you in mind for future trips in that area.

Thanks for the help folks, I don't know why I had brain lock and could not remember who to call for help.

Our hike was wonderful .......... could not have asked for better.
